The red velvet cover cloth is lifted, and an ornament that looks like a huge white chrysanthemum is revealed, which is dazzling.
Jiang Yichen couldn't help but take a deep breath, is this still the big clams, almost unrecognizable.
He took two steps forward, and when he looked closely, the delicate texture of white jade, the graceful and rhythmic wave curves, and the flexible grooves on the surface of the shell were full of vigorous vitality and vitality.
When he calmed down, he finally saw some doorways.
The designers and craftsmen of "Zhuyuan Pavilion" are indeed masters, and on the basis of following the natural shape and texture changes of raw materials, they have carried out secondary creation and processing modification.
The first is to remove the turnip and save the essence, carefully remove the debris inside and outside the clams, then repair the defects, and then carry out artificial carving, this step is the most exquisite design skills.
For example, the surface position of the back of the shell, remember that the original grooves are shallow, some of them change in thickness abruptly when they come from the front, and some of the lines are directly broken without transition to the back, which looks very stiff.
But at present, after carving, some of them appear so harmonious and natural, a groove line, homeopathic unfolding, whirling, depth and thickness change, coherent and smooth, making people feel very pleasant. And the craftsmanship is also very sophisticated, so that this qiē can not see the traces of artificial carving, as if it should have been like this.
Nowadays, the handicraft industry goes to two extremes, the first is to make the objects bells and whistles, extremely complicated, proud to show off the level of craftsmanship, and cover up the properties of the raw materials themselves.
The other is the opposite, under the banner of authenticity and ecology. The material is whatever it is, and at most, the surface stains and attachments are simply treated. Although this school of thought is not the mainstream, there are many believers.
Jiang Yichen and Su Xiaojia also communicated about this, thinking that the above two are not advisable, the former needless to say, even the latter is quite confusing, in fact, there is a big problem.
Things produced in nature are inevitably affected by various influences in the process of formation, and always carry one defect or another. At this time, there is a need for a process of discovering and refining beauty. In fact, this principle is similar to the article "xx comes from life." But higher than life" has a sense of similarity.
The large clams ornament is not placed directly on the ground. There is also a deep mahogany-colored long wooden table underneath, which also matches well.
"It's so beautiful, it's beyond my expectations." Jiang Yichen changed his perspective to appreciate it, and at the same time made an evaluation with a sigh.
Su Xiaojia's expression also became excited. Eyes with starlight. Nodding his head frequently in agreement.
She took a notebook. Simply write some words on it and use gestures to talk to the other person. Because Jiang Yichen is not very proficient in sign language, this has also become the most common way of communication between them.
Su Xiaojia said. When the big clams were in the backyard of the Zhuyuan Pavilion and the workshop, they were only halfway done, and they had already attracted the attention of the relevant personnel. Especially Manager Li and the designer, who came to see it almost every day, shook their heads from time to time, and admired again and again.
When it was finished, Manager Li talked to her and said that the store wanted to bid 700,000 yuan to buy the finished product. But she refused directly at the time, and in fact, she didn't come up with any specific reasons, anyway, she was unwilling in her heart.
Manager Li also said not to reply so quickly, let her go back and discuss it with her family, and she can find him again at any time after figuring it out.
Before loading the goods and loading the truck, they also took a number of photos with digital cameras and lighting.
"700,000, such a big deal, which makes you refuse immediately? Hehe, Xiaojia, you really regard money as a floating cloud. If it were me, I'd have to hesitate for a while. Alas, it's really not as good as yours. Jiang Yichen heard this and couldn't help teasing.
Su Xiaojia's face flushed, she lowered her head and crossed her hands together.
The jet-black smooth ear-length short hair, the red dragonfly-shaped bow on it, and the delicate lines of the face look particularly elegant and delicate under the light. Even though she was wearing a plain white overalls, she was unaffected.
Coupled with the exquisite big clams next to it, one person and one thing are matched together, it is so harmonious and natural, which makes Jiang Yichen suddenly feel like he is in a dream.
He exhaled, quickly pulling his thoughts back from his drifting state.
At this time, Su Xiaojia stretched out his hand and pointed to a few places on the big clams, asking him to pay attention.
Jiang Yichen quickly understood what he meant, those places were originally defective and discolored, but now through the joint efforts of designers and craftsmen, they have been cleverly repaired and covered up. If you don't look closely, it's almost negligible.
Of course, after all, it is a naturally occurring thing, and it cannot be so perfect. For example, at the back of the bottom, there is a half-palm-sized "birthmark", which is significantly darker in color than other places.
But this is harmless, and the slightest flaw makes it more real, and it makes it easier to prove to others that it is not made of artificial materials.
Su Xiaojia then said that she benefited a lot during this time, and the master treated her well, and did not just arrange for her to help, but let her follow after watching it for a few days, and began to do some corner work.
Because she is diligent and studious, the masters in the workshop are very fond of her, and in addition to the large clams itself, she also learned some other professional processing methods for shells, corals, pearls and other crafts.
"Hehe, then we will lose a lot of money, pay such an expensive processing fee, and let you build so much labor." Jiang Yichen joked.
Su Xiaojia naturally understood, but just pursed her lips and smiled, noncommittal.
The two watched the big clams together for half an hour. Only then did he put on the red flannel cloth again, lock the door and leave the house.
Before leaving, Jiang Yichen specially instructed her to talk to Aunt Wu about it, and pay special attention to the safety of the big clams, especially not to let ordinary clerks come into contact with it.
Now it has become a unique and excellent handicraft, but it is not as great as when it comes to raw materials, if there is any accidental damage, the loss is greater.
Su Xiaojia gestured to reassure him, saying that this room would not let others in casually.
Jiang Yichen said goodbye to the girl, went downstairs and went out from the backyard, leaving Dingxiang Garden and walking towards the No. 9 courtyard of Xiushui Lane, ready to deliver another batch of seasonings.
Originally, I also brought a batch to Ding Xiangyuan, but when I got off the bus just now, because the glass of the store door was smashed, I forgot to take it out of the space for a while, and I lost the opportunity after entering the store, so I had to talk about it later. (To be continued......)
