Why does the jade cabbage of the Forbidden City attract so many tourists?

In the Yonghe Palace of the Forbidden City, there is a piece of jade cabbage in the Qing Dynasty. It is a dowry of the Emperor Guangxu. Because of the small amount of related literature, more information about its author is unknown. Craftsmen use the natural color of jade to sculpt the leaves and handles of cabbage, which is very textured and realistic, full of life and charm. It is said that attracting a lot of tourists every year, why can this jade cabbage attract so many tourists? Let's take a look at this jade cabbage with the Xiaobian of China Jewelry Merchants Network .

At present, jade cabbage has one in the Beijing Museum, the Tianjin Museum and the Taipei Museum. They are also the best signs of the museum when they are publicized. As long as you travel, you will find that the jade cabbage is very popular with tourists. At the jade cabbage exhibition hall in the National Palace Museum in Taipei, the tourists rubbed their shoulders and surrounded it, and the staff were sweating to maintain order; The Palace Museum exhibits, other objects with the same historical and cultural connotations are not so popular, why is this?

Players familiar with the jewelry market know that there are many factors that influence the value of a jade. These include the type, weight, quality and carvings of jade. Engraving pieces, round beads, no-life cards, original stones, 18K gold ornaments, silver ornaments, different wear and tear, different risks, will naturally affect the price. Bracelets, round beads, and safety buckles are expensive, and the price of glossy and conformal is low. The more raw materials are consumed, the more expensive the price is.

But for jade cabbage, there are only two aspects that really affect its unique value.

The first is the ingenuity. Those who have seen this jade cabbage should be able to see that the raw materials are not really good jade. If you look carefully, you can see cracks. In today's market, it is a price that is very influential. However, at that time, the craftsman’s brain opened wide and the idea was ingenious. The crack was turned into a fold in the middle of the vegetable leaf; the yellowish place on the jade was not avoided, but it remained on the stalk and showed a frost. Texture; carved two insects (aphids and muse) on the leaves, meaning many children and grandchildren; these are called the pen of God, making this cabbage especially realistic.

Then there is the engraver, which can be said to be the greatest value of jade cabbage. Perhaps from the perspective of our current craftsmanship, this jade cabbage can't be considered as a stunning work. It may be unintentional and hard-pressed, but it is largely due to the various power tools. At that time, the craftsman could only use a pair of skillful hands and minds to use the simple tools to cut the hard jade into a device, to maximize the advantages of this jade and minimize the disadvantages. This skill, the labor and time spent is probably unmatched by modern craftsmanship.

The value of jade cabbage has been speculated by the merchants in the collection industry. I hope that you can treat and analyze it rationally. In fact, from an academic point of view, any bronze or Paleolithic ware two thousand years ago will be a hundred times more precious than it. For ancient objects, we must discuss its cultural value and appreciate its uniqueness.
