This kind of round jade carving is very expensive
There were several reasons why round jade carvings were so valuable: From a technological point of view, the production process was very complicated and required many processes to complete. For example, ancient jade round carvings first had to select high-quality jade raw materials, then undergo cutting, polishing, carving, and other processes. Polishing and carving were the most critical links, requiring a long time to carefully carve. In terms of cultural value, round jade carvings were an important part of China traditional culture and had a profound historical and cultural heritage. For example, the circular animal jade carvings of the Han Dynasty were the products of the "materialization" of the thoughts of the people of the Han Dynasty, which was an important physical evidence to interpret the history of the Han Dynasty. In terms of quantity, many round jade carvings were rare. For example, the number of large-scale round animal jade sculptures unearthed in the Han Dynasty was very rare. In terms of artistic value, round jade carvings had a strong artistic expression. For example, the Han Dynasty jadework used a variety of design languages, giving the round carving and flat carving jade an unprecedented charm. Some round carving animal jade had a very high artistic appeal. All these factors combined made the round jade carving very valuable. Read more exciting novels for free

Nuwa Jade Carving
Nuwa's jade carving could be described from the following aspects: - [Design Concept: When carving Nuwa jade, one must follow the principle of "figure integration". According to the shape, color, texture, cracks, flaws, etc. of the jade raw material, a feasible process concept should be carried out.] For example, there was a piece of jade that was bright and smooth in color, and the top part of it was green. According to this feature, the picture of Nüwa mending the sky could be designed, emphasizing the green part to reflect the fearless spirit reflected by Nüwa mending the stone. - ** Production process **: - Drawing: Drawing on the jade is the first step. Draw the corresponding pattern on the jade according to the design concept. - Cutting and positioning (stabbing): Use a thallium-based piece to cut off the excess parts, so that the corresponding surface appears on the surface of the jade. This is the key process of jade carving production. From the raw material to the accurate appearance of the image, it mainly depends on this process. - ** Carving Details **: For example, when carving the jade carving of Nüwa, the lower left part of the initial idea was to carve the front and back of the dragon circling. In practice, it could be changed into waves, symbolizing Nüwa's brave and fearless spirit of leaping over the sea and standing between heaven and earth. Next was the fine blank (finding the fine) process, which used the hook to carefully engrave the fine details of the character's image, such as outlining the obvious creases such as the folds of Nuwa's skirt and hair, and then refining the engravings to make the bumps and joints complete and smooth. - ** Polishing and Grinding (Roughening)**: The surface of the semi-finished jade carving will be polished to be more delicate, and then the leather will be dipped in polishing powder to brighten it. - ** Cleaning **: After cleaning the jade, it can be shipped to achieve the effect of value for money.

Simple Jade Carving
The simple carving techniques of jade included the carving of Yin lines and Yang lines. Yin lines were carved on the surface of the jade material, which was a relatively simple technique in jade carving. The thick Yin lines on jade articles in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties and even earlier were often treated with the "one side slope"(also known as the inclined knife) technique. One side of the Yin line was vertical to the surface of the jade material, and the other side was a gentle slope. This Yin line had a shadow effect, which could enhance the three-dimensional effect of the pattern. It could also be densely arranged with many thin and short Yin lines to show the texture of hair. Yang lines were lines that protruded out, like the seal characters commonly seen on Yang characters (vermilion characters) jade seals. In addition, flat carving was relatively simple. It was carved on the surface of the jade. Bo Yi was also a relatively unique and relatively difficult carving technique, but it could be understood as a relatively simple carving technique derived from embossed. It was an extremely shallow embossed. The carving layer was thin and full of painting intent. It was even more "shallow" than shallow embossed. It combined calligraphy, seal carving, and painting into one. It was known for its emphasis on elegance, fine workmanship, and close to painting theory. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

Jade carving restoration
The following are some common methods of repairing jade carvings: 1. [Bonding of fracture]: It is suitable for situations where the jade is broken, and it is not cost-effective to cut it into two, or it cannot be carved again. During the operation, the gem-specific glue was used to re-glue the fracture along the fracture. The fracture was required to be relatively complete and perfectly pieced together. 2. [Gold and Jade Embedding]: This is a traditional technique. When repairing jade, it can be used to connect the broken parts with gold and silver patterns. Not only could it help with piecing together, but it could also hide cracks. It could also give jade articles new patterns. It had a wide range of applications. For example, when jade and white jade bracelets were broken, a gold or silver hoop could be wrapped around the broken ring; for jade with cracks, gold or silver threads could be pressed into the cracks. 3. ** Divide into two (or one piece into multiple pieces)**: The designer will analyze the original shape of the jade according to the damage of the jade, and divide it on the basis of the original after ingenious conception. For example, the broken carving was divided into two or more independent or related small pieces, or the broken jade was divided into multiple independent small pieces through the design and carving of the restoration craftsman. This method could reduce the number of discarded items. The value of the repaired jade was sometimes not lower than the original, but it required a high level of design and innovation ability of the technician, and the workload was also large. 4. ** Re-repair **: Re-create with the premise of covering up and repairing the damage of the jade. The masters of art had many methods to remedy and repair, such as "removing the high to make up for the low","removing the fat to make up for the thin","making up for the bad with the bad","making up for the broken with the broken", etc. A simple re-repair could grind and polish the damaged jades at the edges and corners, but it might affect the proportion and coordination of the original shape. A complicated re-creation of the original work according to the damaged parts was required. This method required a lot of work and was difficult to create. However, if the creativity was unique, the overall effect might be the closest to the original work and the degree of restoration would be perfect. 5. [** Gaps Filled **: Used when the jade pendant is only missing a small piece.] Generally, synthetic resin mixed with chalk powder was applied to the missing parts and modified by sculpting. In order to make the color of the repaired part consistent with the color of the surrounding jade, it would first be ground into powder with the same color of raw materials (such as malachite, lapis lazuli, etc.), or mixed with the same color of raw materials in the filling before filling. 6. Mortise and Tenon Repair: Use the structure of mortise and tenon to repair the jade carving. Choose the appropriate materials and color to achieve a better repair effect. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Jade Internal Carving

Internal carvings were made using this unique jade carving technique. For example, on some high-quality jade raw materials, craftsmen used internal carving techniques to create various shapes inside the jade, such as three-dimensional or embossed shapes of people, flowers, birds, and animals. Since the internal carving operation was carried out inside the jade, it required the craftsman to have superb skills and rich experience, and to have a deep understanding of the internal structure of the jade to ensure that the jade would not be damaged during the carving process. This kind of internal carving was more unique and artistic than the traditional works that were only carved on the surface of jade. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

It was a new type of numerical control equipment, and its working principle was similar to that of a numerical control milling machine. It could be divided into flat jade engraving machines and three-dimensional jade engraving machines. Its working process is to first use the engraving programming software to convert the content to be carved into the standard G code that the engraving machine control software can recognize, and then make the three axes of the control machine automatically move in a continuous way, thus achieving automatic engraving. It can complete the Yin carving, Yang carving, line carving, embossed and other text or pattern effects on the jade, and is also suitable for jade, jewelry and mold processing. According to the control method, it could be divided into computer controlled jade engraving machine and panel controlled jade engraving machine. The price of computer controlled jade engraving machine was relatively cheap, and the stability of the panel controlled jade engraving machine was higher. According to the hardness and precision requirements of the customer, it could be divided into high and low configuration jade engraving machine. The finished product of mechanical carving of jade had the advantages of saving time and effort, high yield, low cost, and less error. However, the disadvantage was that the product lacked spirituality and couldn't be carved with beautiful colors. The outer shape was basically similar, and most of it was reflected by the technical parameters on the computer.
