More than 200 jade paintings of Master Shi Bingmou exhibited in "China Jade Culture Promotion Exhibition, Caibai Collection and Shi Bingmou Jade Art Exhibition" are mostly made of jade, red sandalwood, oil painting and other materials, with great contrast in texture, which is not completely equivalent to jade carving works in the traditional sense. The creators have adopted a brand-new form to express contemporary jade culture: the works combine eastern and western cultures and arts, and express China's traditional cultural thoughts, historical allusions, jade carving skills and western paintings. During the exhibition, the organizer also provided many opportunities for the audience to exchange and interact with China jade culture.

2009 China Jewelry and Jade Jewelry Guide

If the scale formation of China's jewelry industry has gone through 20 years, it should take 10 years to build a jewelry culture in an all-round way. Since the launch of 1998, the jewelry design competition has focused on creativity, cultural connotation and brand image, which has become a booster for the brand development of jewelry enterprises. They work through the design, development and marketing of jewelry products. Fully aware of the core role of culture in jewelry products, but culture, after all, is an intangible thing in our lives, but it permeates us like air, even the most easily overlooked but indispensable spiritual oxygen, especially the multi-ethnic gathering and dispersion of the Chinese nation for thousands of years, which has itself achieved a gem culture that runs through Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. These have always been the treasures that the western world dreamed of but never really got. The diamond culture spreading from west to east makes us believe in the western business wise men who have been playing with the culture for a hundred years, because it has only a few hundred years of cultural history, but we can understand and use it thoroughly. And our culture, which has been crisscrossed for thousands of years, is heavy and can't be carried by one hand. One person's shoulders, even the shoulders of a generation, may not be able to bear it.

However, responsibility is inevitable. Jewelry is the carrier of culture. Without culture, there is no meaning of existence. If we blindly follow western culture for commercial reproduction, this generation of jewelry industry cannot be called "China" jewelry industry. Let's take the cultural construction of jewelry industry as a glorious responsibility. We are in this industry, extend our warm hands and dedicate our correct shoulders, and we will shoulder the hope of the next generation of jewelers.
