The beauty of Hetian jade The materials of Hetian jade have been washed and tempered by the Kunlun Mountains, and have been eroded by various mineral elements of nature. Most of them are attached to different color skins of deep or shallow. Regarding the color skin of Hetian jade, the ancients and todayadays cherish it very much. If there are rare and beautiful skins, the collectors will not be called jade and will be called the treasure. In the current Hetian jade national standard testing system, color skin is not included in the testing project, and there is no systematic scientific research and clear standards. The analysis and research of Hetian jade skin is a perfection and supplement to the evaluation criteria of Hetian jade value judgment. Caption: stone skin material The beauty of the color of nature The judgment of beauty should be pleasing. It has the standards of the times, but it is not as accurate as the mathematical formula. Everyone's understanding of beauty will be different. Therefore, it is difficult to form a unified international standard for the evaluation of the value of Hetian jade skin and the value of Hetian jade. The color skin is the appearance, which is commonly known as the “selling phaseâ€. This perception is obviously important in the collection and business circles. If the appearance of the material is not beautiful and the quality is excellent, it can be used as a processing material, and it is a treasure of the value of Hetian jade material and work. The jade seed of the collection level must be of great aesthetic value, and it is extremely perfect for collection value, and its value has nothing to do with the craft. Caption: Cloud-like skin color Hetian jade has a rare color skin that is natural secondary. The jade has been oxidized and honed by nature for thousands of years, forming brown, red, yellow, black and other different colors, different shades of natural color, and the natural color is pleasing to the eye. The beauty of the color skin is mainly expressed in the color pattern (viewing leather) and color (single skin). The natural color skin is divergent, such as the color in the watercolor painting, suitable for the depth and natural smudge. Its hue is not perfect, there may be flaws, impurities or cracks under the skin, but its color has a flowing feeling, which is unmatchable by the rigid fake skin. Caption: vein color sub-material The color of the natural material is not fixed, and the skin is colorful and diverse. The surface and the surface of the material can be carefully observed. When jade teachers are in Xiangyu, they will use their own aesthetic ideals to observe the relationship between color skin and works. Every jade person can imagine the change of the pattern and skin of the outer skin color of the material. The beauty of the color skin contains the following aspects: First, color. Whether it is red or black, or yellow, or brown, each large color category can be divided into several sub-categories. Second, chromaticity. According to the intensity and purity of the color skin, it is divided into several levels. Third, color form. Refers to the form of the jade table, which is vein-like, or sprinkled with gold, or cloud-like, or flaky. Fourth, the color layer. The combination of jade color, single or combination, different colors cover the chronological characteristics and geological features of jade. Caption: composite skin color on the surface of the sub-material These content features combine to form the individuality of the color of the sub-materials. Therefore, the beauty of the color skin is naturally interesting, unique and ingenious. Of course, the essence of Hetian Yumei is "inside". In the feeling of jade, the so-called "yude" of the ancients is about the inner quality of jade, which is different from the jadeite with "color". The beauty of the color skin is to describe the appearance of jade, like clothing, it can add beauty, can cover up some internal defects and deficiencies, if the jade is fine and white, the appearance is covered with a large color skin, which needs to be handled skillfully. So that the beauty of the essence will not be completely hidden in the color skin. The color skin is a supplement to the endoplasm of the jade and complements each other. Type of color leather And the existing national standards divide Hetian jade into six categories. From ancient times to today, the beauty of Hetian jade skin and the classification of Hetian jade skin color are only aesthetic descriptions, folk understanding, and adjectives in the industry. Inductive analysis of the Xinjiang jade market and the collection of sub-stocks, and the color skin of Hetian jade can be divided into red, yellow, gold, brown, tiger, black, and other skins. The various color skins described by the folks are included in these categories. The classification of the color skin in this paper refers to the color skin naturally formed by the outer layer of Hetian jade material, that is, its color skin which is inconsistent with the color of jade. Caption: jujube red material First, red skin. In traditional Chinese culture, red is auspicious, a symbol of joy, auspiciousness, warmth, passion, and light. The walls of many palaces and temples in ancient China were red. It also has the meaning of expelling evil, not only in China, but also in some foreign countries. The "fire" in the "five elements" of Chinese traditional culture, the corresponding color is red, and the departure from the gossip also symbolizes red. Caption: cinnabar leather material The red skin is a high-grade type in the color skin of Hetian jade, and is divided into two types: jujube red and cinnabar. The jujube red skin is deeper, and the cinnabar color skin is lighter, which is also a kind of enthusiasm for the counterfeiters. According to the experts and scholars of jewellery and jade identification, most of the color skins of Hetian jade in the market are fake, and most of the bright red skin and other color skins are dyed. Of course, the rare red skin is really hard to see. Caption: gold red skin material In the "Western Regions of the Ming Dynasty" in the Qing Dynasty, the description of the Hetian seed jade produced in Xinjiang's Yarkant River is described as follows: "There are rivers and jade stones in the land. The big ones are like dishes, such as fighting, the small ones are like fists, such as millet, there are It is three or four hundred pounds. It is different in style, such as white snow, green grass, yellow wax, red orchid, black ink, all of which are top grades. A kind of sheep fat, spotted, like a Persian dish, and It is especially rare for the whole piece of drenched water. The river is large and small, and it is patchwork and tiled. The jade is mixed with the jade. It can be seen that in the past, the jade rivers in Xinjiang are often seen as raw materials of various color skins. These colored leather materials are rare. , rare. "Sheep" is the red-skinned jade jade that we are talking about now. It has been a treasure since ancient times. The so-called good jade has no skin, which means that the jade meat is tight and it is not easy to form a color enamel. However, such views cannot be absolute. It is normal for hundreds of millions of years of water erosion, sand erosion and color skin formation. Second, yellow skin. The meaning of yellow in Chinese traditional culture is bright and rich, a symbol of wealth. It is among the five colors in the traditional "five elements" doctrine, which is the color of the emperor, which embodies the ancient worship of the earth god. "General Code" notes cloud: "Yellow neutral beauty, Huang Cheng Tiande, the most beautiful, so the color is also overflowing." Yellow is the natural color of the earth, this color represents the beauty of "Tiande", that is, And beauty. Since the Tang Dynasty, China has always said, "The emperor always wears the yellow robe, and the imprisoned scholars are not allowed to take it, but the service of Huang has been banned since then." It can be seen that yellow is a statutory color in ancient China, symbolizing imperial power, glory and sublimity. So far, yellow is still a symbol of ancient China. Caption: Okra skin material The golden symbolizes wealth, the bright yellow symbolizes the imperial power, the Chinese nation is the descendant of the Yellow Emperor, but the Western understanding of yellow is different, and the understanding of color in Chinese and Western cultures is different. The yellow skin of Hetian jade can be divided into four types: millet, okra, ivory and aloe. If yellow is a symbol of dignity and wealth in traditional culture, then the yellow skin material is rich in fashion elements today, and the yellow skin material is highly sought after in the market and is a feature of high quality jade. Caption: chestnut yellow skin material The turmeric skin is a category in which the color of the jade is darker and more uniform, giving the impression that it is calm and rich. The color of the okra skin looks old-fashioned, and the omega surface that forms the long-term will have an okra color. The ivory skin is lighter and has a very thin surface. It is difficult to break into the foreign elements of the good jade meat, which can form such a light color. The base of the aloe skin is yellow, the depth is not necessarily uniform, it looks thicker, a little grayish. From the color point of view, the okra skin is a noble mainstream color skin in the yellow skin material, and there is not much uniform corn poppy skin. The jade meat of the ivory skin is extremely fine, but it is rare. Caption: ivory skin material Third, the gold skin. Gold and red, yellow are close, this color often falls into red or yellow. In fact, gold is yellowish red, brighter than yellow, it is more luxurious and more gorgeous than yellow. Therefore, the golden symbolizes nobleness, glory, luxury, and brilliance, and is a brilliant color. Caption: sprinkle gold skin material Hetian jade's golden skin material is extremely valuable. In particular, sprinkling gold skin is highly valued. Sprinkling gold skin generally appears in the pores of the surface of the material, which is dotted with stars, like the stars scattered in the night sky. This is a fine jade, which is difficult to form. The jade meat of this kind of material can be clearly seen, and has a beautiful color skin. Of course, it is a precious type. It is a very thin color skin like gold and ivory skin. It is easy to break without opening the window. Look through the endoplasm, but because the color skin is too thin, it is difficult to see the roots infiltrate into the meat, which will give the counterfeiters a chance to fake. The true and false of the golden skin is difficult to distinguish. Some of the sub-meats are white and delicate, and the outer surface is full or basically covered with gold. The industry calls it “golden silverâ€. This kind of rare gold skin material is hard to see and has a high value. There are also some color materials that are a golden hue, giving a very gorgeous feeling. Fourth, brown skin. The brown is calm, thick, tight, and deep. It is a color with a darker color between red and yellow. Brown, red, brown, and brown are all such colors. Although the brown color does not have the warm, festive and brilliant colors of red and yellow, it is the most common mainstream color skin in Hetian jade. It is either deep or shallow, mostly in dark, and the most familiar autumn pear skin belongs to brown skin. This is an adjective. The jade quality of the brown skin material is generally very good, and most of the excellent quality materials are derived from autumn pear skin, sprinkled gold skin, okra skin and natural skin. In the classification of color skin, deer skin and sesame skin can also be classified into the brown skin series. In ancient times, deer skin was a precious color leather material, brown with deep spots, and named after the color of the sika deer. Sesame skin has rarely been mentioned in the past, this species is also very rare. In the past, the jade meat in this color skin may not be guaranteed, but I analyzed a few small seeds of sesame skin, and the exposed sheep fat grade jade meat makes people I can’t put it down. Caption: Tiger skin material Fifth, tiger skin. Tiger skin is a valuable color skin, as the name suggests, this color skin, such as the stripes of tiger skin, is a special natural beauty, stunning. In general, there are two types of tiger skin seeds, one is tiger skin, and the yellow tone is compound dark brown to form a tiger skin-like plaque pattern. These color skins are usually natural topaz, which is formed by mineral elements for many years. . The other type is the floral skin. The natural color of the material is white jade, which is also formed by multiple mineral elements. The value of tiger skin material is rare and beautiful. It is not as easy to analyze the internal quality as sprinkling gold or autumn pear skin. If the outer skin is all-inclusive and the inner meat is not seen, it is very suitable as a kind of ornamental color skin. Once you can see the jade It is pure yellow or fine white, which is the treasure of value. Hetian Qingyu sub-materials or jasper sub-materials, ink jade materials generally do not form the color of tiger spots. Caption: black leather material Sixth, black skin. Black was the mainstream costume of the court before the Tang Dynasty in China, and it was a noble color. It is deep, cold, noble and mysterious. Of course, an era has an aesthetic orientation of the times. The black costumes of the Qin and Han dynasties were solemn in the court, and the royal aristocrats were especially favored after the Tang Dynasty. But the identity of black as a classic color has never changed for thousands of years. The formation of the black skin of Hetian jade material is of course related to the dyeing of graphite elements. This black skin is the appearance of the skin rather than the endoplasm. The white matrix of the tremolite penetrates into the graphite element as a whole, which is obviously different from the black meat. According to the depth of the black skin color, Hetian jade's black skin is also a combination of crow skin and smoke oil skin. The crow skin is pure black, and the smoke oil skin is dark brown. Black skin material is not as common as brown skin material, and it is more difficult to see on large seeds. Caption: crow skin material It is worth noting that the black leather mentioned in the market usually refers to the black leather of Russian jade. This type of black leather block is heavy and jade is very good. It is very popular in the market, but it is not a sub-material. The jade merchants often cut the black layer of the Russian material and left it with a little black ochre. After processing it into a finished product, it was like a black skin of the sub-material. There are also some real black skin Russian seeds, which are still different from the Hetian black skin jade seeds produced in Xinjiang. Seventh, other color skins. The color leather of Hetian jade is in addition to the monochrome leather and the beautiful ornamental leather. There are also some irregular mixed color skins and blurred color skins. If these color skins are not good in quality and are not very ornamental, there is no economic value of collection. Shaoxing Lenore Textile Co.,Ltd , https://www.lenoretex.com
