Jade and diamonds seem to have always been a question that people are discussing. Which one is better between the two? Who will last longer? Why do Chinese people love jade while Westerners love diamonds? Today Yaoyao will talk to you straight to the point!
First of all, there is the aesthetic difference. Foreign colored treasures are mostly artificially optimized in the later stage. Foreign consumers can accept them, but few people in China can accept them. Foreign countries like things with clear standards. Diamonds have their 4C standards, but jade does not, so foreign consumers cannot like them. To sum up: "Orientals don't accept optimization, and Westerners don't accept lack of standards."
Secondly, Chinese people love jade, which is the crystallization of China's thousands of years of culture. Westerners will not make a flower piece for a diamond and give it a certain meaning. Diamonds are always polished in round, princess, pear and marquise shapes. Even if the finished product is about to be as big as a palm, they will not do it. Flowers, ornaments or handles. The Chinese often endow jade with a more humane poetic touch.
Mountain viewing appreciation: A mountain peak, towering thousands of feet, like a sharp sword, thrust straight into the sky and extremely dangerous. The old man in the pavilion has an air of being out of the world, which is similar to the old man. The meaning of Shoubi Mountain.
"A diamond is forever, a diamond is forever", this famous saying is widely circulated. Yaoyao feels that instead of saying that people like diamonds, it is better to say that most people’s preferences are hijacked by the value behind diamonds. On the contrary, the Chinese people's love for jade is not limited to how many zeros a jade has on the market, but also the meaning it contains.
Today, a proposal is equal to a diamond ring. When diamonds are associated with love, marriage and the value of existence, authenticity no longer matters. So every time when diamonds are mentioned, a very specific image pops up in everyone's mind, which is something shiny embedded in a ring. When mentioning jade, many things suddenly flashed through my mind, but it was difficult to form a specific image. This is also one of the reasons why Chinese people love jade.
Among all the materials used to make jewelry, jade is the closest and closest to people. Money is money, diamonds are price, and jade is life. Since ancient times, jade has always been used as a personal accessory. It is important to play hand toy. If you keep playing hand to hand, the quality of jade will become more moist. Therefore, diamonds are like a delicate little girl who needs to be held in hand, while jade is a bit like a wife of chaff. The longer it goes by, the better it will taste.
Man and stone merge into one, classics infiltrate life
Jade represents noble character, beauty and nobility. Jade culture is one of the ancient cultures with the longest history and the most representative of Eastern civilization. When Chinese people appreciate jade, they are more willing to combine the advantages and disadvantages of the jade itself and add exquisite workmanship to express their wishes and unite the human and the stone.
Nirvana Appreciation: Nirvana, a Buddhist term, means coolness and tranquility, the absence of troubles, the eternal silence of all sufferings, and the middle path of neither birth nor death, neither dirt nor purity, neither increase nor decrease, etc. The meaning of nature; that is, becoming a Buddha, transcending the realm of life and death, achieving nothing, no attachment, and a perfect realm that remains unchanged according to circumstances.
