和田玉

In recent years, the price of contemporary Hetian jade carvings has been constantly rising, and the average annual price increase can reach 60%----100%. Then, as an ordinary jade carving collection and enthusiasts, how to evaluate the quality of a contemporary jade carving work? How to judge whether there is a huge appreciation space in the future?

With these questions, the reporter interviewed young jade artists, jade carving senior craft technicians, executive director of Suzhou Jade Culture Industry Association, executive director of China Hetian jade fan association, member of Suzhou Arts and Crafts Industry Association, and executive of the National Arts and Crafts Industry Council. Director, Yu Shirong Jade Sculpture Studio founder - Mr. Yu Shirong.

How to judge the quality of jade carving works

Mr. Yu introduced that for ordinary jade hobbyists and collectors, judging whether a contemporary jade carving is good or bad, the most basic thing is to see whether this work is suitable according to the material, that is, to create different works according to the changes of different raw materials. . This is an important criterion for measuring the artistic quality of a work. Because jade itself is non-renewable, and the master of art is able to make use of every part and characteristics of raw materials to create the most suitable works.

Art content is more important than material quality

The quality of the material is very important for a jade carving, but it is not necessarily the most important. In recent years, the jade carving works with rapid appreciation are not the best jade carving products, but the artworks created by the masters of Gongmei. Moreover, the jade carving works created by some masters of arts and crafts are medium-grade and even relatively low-grade raw materials, but the price has reached tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of yuan. Why are these works so expensive? Is it really worth the money?

For this problem, Mr. Yu Shirong made a very easy-to-understand solution: just like the collection of paintings and calligraphy, the price of a painting and calligraphy, the cost of paper and ink is basically negligible, and no collector will pick the white stone. Painting paper is too cheap. Contemporary jade carving art collections are also the same. Artists and beauty masters are also artists. They turn a common raw material into a work of art, and skillfully use the transformation of the color of the raw materials themselves, plus their own craftsmanship, to make their best. Yang Qijing, the artistic content of raw materials. The final price of a jade carving work consists of two parts: raw material value and artistic value. Therefore, a jade carving art will appear, and the artistic value given to it by the creator will far exceed the value of its raw materials.

What kind of works have more appreciation potential

In recent years, the most popular jade carving products on the market are all kinds of jewellery and small pieces that can be held in the palm of your hand, not only jade, but also Hetian jade. If you buy a good jade bracelet now, or buy a small piece of Hetian jade seed, how much will the future appreciation space be?

Over the years, it has been proved that even simple and repeatable processes of bracelets, ring faces, pendants and other products, even if they have good materials, but because of the lack of artistic connotation, the price fluctuations in very different periods are very large. But the jade carving art created by the artist adds artistic connotation to the value of its raw materials, which can largely resist the fluctuation caused by the value of raw materials. Therefore, for collectors, you should choose all kinds of larger objects that are carved by famous teachers.
