Traditional blue and white jade

Generally speaking, we divide blue and white flowers into the following categories:

Blue and white ink, that is, black and white, sometimes looks like a natural landscape painting even if it is not carved;

Dot ink blue and white, this blue and white ink is dot-shaped, suitable for clever carving.

Strictly speaking, blue and white flowers are actually a defect, which is also called blue and white flowers by people in the industry. Of course, when the name comes out, it doesn't feel good. For example, when cutting a piece of material, it is blue and white, that is to say, there is blue and white in this piece of material, but it is not black and does not gather together, which affects the quality of jade.

There are many kinds of blue and white, some are rich and colorful, some are simple and unpretentious, or they have different shapes and are unique!

The minimalist black-and-white color, gathering like ink and scattering like smoke, is naturally a ink painting with far-reaching artistic conception, which makes people fondle it.

Blue and white flowers also have their own characteristics in origin and occurrence.

1, thickness

Use a little white to describe this blue and white!

Thick blue and white, like natural splash ink, thick ink color, deep and dignified!

Just like a strong ink dripping into pure still water, the ink color rolls and rolls, but it is inseparable, as if there is stillness in stillness and stillness in motion.

2. Light

There seems to be no one on the empty mountain, but I think I heard a voice! Paleness is also a state of extreme beauty.

On a piece of white jade, the faint ink color creates an artistic conception. The faint ink color is like a few clouds in the mountains, with a hazy beauty!

Step 3: Get together.

Blue and white pay attention to gathering, and ink gathers, so I am angry!

Gathering is what we call gathering ink and blue flowers. As the name implies, the color of Jimo is scattered on the white jade base in the form of clouds or flakes, showing distinct shades, gathering gas and being natural!

The ink is very thick, black and white. This kind of blue and white is perhaps the favorite of jade sculptors. It is easier to carve skillfully and the content expressed is more brilliant.

In fact, there are not many real colors of blue and white. Judging from the occurrence, there are relatively many seeds of blue and white flowers. Blue and white mountain materials are generally scattered, and there are few true colors.

4. Dispersion

Scattering doesn't mean bad, sometimes scattering can express artistic conception better than gathering!

Loose ink blue and white, its ink color is very loose, much like some big black cotton dots. There are also some exclusive themes such as some animal themes, which are very suitable for this kind of black and white.

The patchwork ink and blue and white flowers like clouds also have an ethereal beauty, or its looseness is another artistic conception!

5. Form

Blue and white pay attention to form, and the form and meaning between black and white is the most artistic value of blue and white! Form and meaning are also collectors' favorite to explore or pursue.

The beauty of blue and white lies in its artistic conception. The ink color of blue and white is as elegant, carefree and comfortable as China's ink painting. Blue and white works also make people realize the spirit of ancient literati, express their feelings for mountains and rivers, and are leisurely and natural.

In short, there are many kinds of blue and white flowers, which is not comprehensive here. And the play of blue and white is also diverse. It can play with the original stone, appreciate its natural beauty, and find the existence of hieroglyphics. Can be skillfully carved, blue and white material can be said to be the most suitable one in Hetian jade.

Finally, let me briefly talk about the collection of blue and white. When we play with jade, we often say series collection. If you can, collect a series of different blue and white materials, and you will find that the beauty of blue and white is so different, and playing with jade will be more fun and meaningful ~
