Jade anyone?

I’ve just learned one or two things about Jading thanks to your post. This is first time I’ve ever heard about jading.

BTW: Have you ever done Jade?
Let me guess your answer: once or twice upon a time.

onceuponatime (72) · 7 years ago

I only had a short time in the jade store, where I took the photo, on my way back to Beijing from the Great Wall. So I don't have any details as to the meaning or history of this jade masterpiece.

After a long time, I was very excited to see your blog post.
It's been a bit of a busy time now because there's a big project in our office where it's been a lot of time to work.I hope you are good on the blessings of the great God.

My own personal opinion is published below:

jade is a beautiful stone that can be many different colors including green, orange, or white. Most of us will have seen the Jade that is green in color. Jade however is a very popular and expensive stone and this has given rise to many fakes, imitations or treated Jades being seen in the market place. Ancient records show that the Chinese started to dye jade to improve the color in 13th century. If you are about to go shopping for jade or have an old piece of jade, here is an article that will help you tell if you have found the real thing.

The image above has been uploaded for you. Hopefully you will be very happy to see the Buddha image :)

xupon (40) · 7 years ago

People have used jade for at least 100,000 years. The earliest objects made from jade were tools. Jade is a very hard material and is used as a tool because it is extremely tough and breaks to form sharp edges.

Most jade does not have a color and translucence that is expected in a gemstone. However, when early people found these special pieces of jade, they were often inspired to craft them into a special object.

missionsuccess (45) · 7 years ago

How many many hours did this take to carve @onceuponatime? The details are very nice, also it looks framed, what type of molding profile is the border?

onceuponatime (72) · 7 years ago

Sorry, I don't have those details. I took the photo in a jade store north of Beijing.

Is it just a piece of art or some history behind this beautiful masterpiece???

queensophia (40) · 7 years ago

Originally, all jade objects were thought to be made from the same material. However, in 1863 a Frenchman, Alexis Damour, discovered that the material known as "jade" could be divided into two different minerals: jadeite and nephrite.

Because these two materials can be difficult to distinguish, and because the word "jade" is so entrenched in common language, the name "jade" is still widely used across many societies, industries, and academic disciplines.

Beautiful chunk of jade! I wonder if this is an antique piece which was stolen from one of the royal palaces in the past!
Dragons are exclusively used by royalties! But, then the price would be too high for a private collection; for museums perhaps!

So, I think this is a new piece of carved jade! Still the price is very high fir such a big panel! Would love to see the details closer!!
