The jadeite with good water is moist and transparent, and is full of natural beauty.
However, most jadeites are not so transparentExperienced jade carvers understand
The jadeite is treated with "water transfer".
Let the jadeite present its best visual effect.
What is a "water head"?
Water Transfer:
As the name suggests, it is to improve the transparency of jadeite.
Enhance the light reflection effect of jadeite,
Thus improving the transparency of jadeite;
Enhance the value of finished jadeite products. 
In the jadeite industry, there are two ways to transfer water:
Engraving skills
If the surface of the jadeite is very rough、
Low transparency, short head or dry water.
Treat this jadeite,We can also do this by grinding
Polishing and other treatments,
Make the surface of the jadeite smooth as a mirror
It is beneficial for light to penetrate the surface and penetrate the interior.
Allow jadeite to gather more light
It seems that the transparency of jadeite is very good.
In the face of the darker color, affecting the transparency of the jadeite,The jade carvers are in the carving process
Appropriately cut some parts,
For example, digging a thin jadeite back.
Increase the light transmittance of jadeite
Let the jadeite absorb more light.
I realize the effect with "water".
Of course, jadeite thinness is also important.
Too thin jadeite,
It looks like only transparency,
But it feels like there is no "water".
Like a wide piece of jadeite is a typical negative representative.
Inlaid back cover
The back cover is a common technique for inlay.
Use metal to seal the back of the jadeite.
Using the metal material of the back cover,
Let more light be concentrated on the jadeite.
Increases the luster of jadeite
It has the effect of "water".
Everyone should be wary of fully enclosed inlaid jadeite.
The so-called full-enclosed jadeite refers to:
The back of the jadeite is completely sealed, so that the flaws on the back are tightly covered.
The use of the "water diversion" process makes the originally imperfect jadeite perfect.
Water diversion is a physical processing method and does not damage the internal structure of the jadeite, so it is not the same thing as counterfeiting.
