It is one of the four famous jade, why is it not as good as Hetian jade?

Dushan jade is one of the four famous jade in China. It is located in Dushan, the northern suburb of Nanyang City, Henan Province. The hardness of Dushan jade is comparable to that of Hetian jade, mostly 6.0-6.5 Mohs. It is composed of various minerals such as plagioclase and zoisite. It has a glass luster and a partial grease luster. Micro-transparent to opaque, a few transparent. Tough and dense texture, rich colors provide ample space for carving all kinds of handicrafts, and it is most suitable for making "beautiful" jade articles. According to historical materials, Dushan jade carving began in Xia business; the Shang Dynasty ancient tomb in Yinxu has Many Dushan jade artifacts were unearthed and flourished in the Han and Tang Dynasties. Since the 1950s, many Dushan jade articles have become famous works of art both at home and abroad. However, such a long-standing jade species has far less recognition in the public mind than Hetian jade, and the reason for this is that there are many reasons:

它是四大名玉之一 为何认知度远不如和田玉

First, the nature of the resources of Dushanyu itself determines that its industry does not do much. Dushan is a lonely mountain with a square area of ​​5 square kilometers. It is conceivable how limited the reserves of resources are. Moreover, the boutique Dushan jade only accounts for less than 10%. In this way, the opportunity for the public to see the boutique Dushan jade is actually not many.

Second, before the 1990s, when there were relatively more fine jade materials, because the local economy was backward, everyone was eager to make money. The Dushan jade was destructively mined, the production was rough, and resources were wasted too much. At that time, many people took the knives and put them on the knives. They did not receive professional training and guidance at all, and did not pay attention to quality at all. Everyone is eager to get rid of poverty and get rich, what to do if they sell well, and to copy a lot of production and make the market worse.

Third, the truly representative Dushan jade carvings that can be seen on the market, that is, there are too few works with ideological and artistic meanings; there are not many opportunities for masters to show up, and they are ordered by collectors during the production process. Very rarely displayed on the market.

Fourth, there is a unique phenomenon in Zhenping, that is, 50% of the employees “run the jade goods”. The so-called "running jade goods" refers to those who do the circulation of jade articles to sell things from their hometowns, or to sell them, or to sell them to businessmen who open stores. In particular, several marbles are also produced near Nanyang, such as “Chongyang Stone” and “Lushan Green”. These colored stones are not jade, but these people who “run the jade goods” lack knowledge of jade culture and Shan Yu did not know enough, and did not rule out the motives for gaining more benefits. They said all the things done with these “Chongyang Stone” and “Lushan Green” as Nanyang Yu, causing consumers to mistake these marbles as Dushan. Jade, and then thought that Dushan jade is a poor jade material with a texture close to marble.

Fifth, Nanyang jade carvings are not enough in the promotion and creation of cultural heritage and connotation. It was almost blank before 2000. After 2000, especially with the influence of the “Tiangong Award”, Dushan Yucai was slowly being understood by more people.

In fact, whether a jade species can be recognized and loved by the public, to a large extent, depends on good works. In recent years, with the unremitting efforts and pioneering exploration of some jade carving people in Nanyang, a number of outstanding works with local life and pastoral taste as the artistic motif have aroused the attention of the industry, and more and more people have re-recognized the independence. The unique beauty of mountain jade.

I hope that in the future, Dushan jade will shine in the creation of more jade carving talents, and will be accepted and loved by more people with a more stunning appearance. In the development process of Chinese contemporary jade culture, it will leave a strong color.
