In ancient China, jade was regarded as a symbol of beautiful things and a symbol of gentlemanly demeanor. Jade carving is one of the oldest types of carving in China. As early as the Shang and Zhou dynasties, jade became ceremonial utensils and decorative accessories, and jade making became a profession. There are four major schools of jade carving in China, namely the Shanghai School, the Yang School, the Northern School and the Southern School. The Shanghai School is a school of jade carving art style centered in Shanghai. The traditional skills of Shanghai School jade carving originated in the old city area of the former Nanshi District of Shanghai. It fully inherited the exquisite craftsmanship of Chinese jade carving. From the aspects of crafts, tools, materials (including white jade, jadeite, amber, crystal, beeswax, etc.), techniques, etc., it almost covers all the contents of traditional Chinese jade carving. The five major types of carving varieties of Shanghai School are furnaces, bottles, vessels, figures and Buddha statues, flowers and birds, animals and natural bottles. The shapes of the vessels are exquisitely carved, meticulously structured, rigorously shaped, solemn and elegant, and the characteristics are "exquisite furnaces, bottles and vessels, and vivid figures and birds and animals." The most iconic works of Shanghai-style jade carving are furnaces, bottles and vessels. They enjoy a high reputation in the Chinese jade carving industry for their steady and elegant shapes, simple and exquisite patterns, and rich bronze interest. The three-legged incense burner, four-joy furnace, five-pavilion furnace, chicken vase, end furnace, sheep statue, rhinoceros statue, and hundred-buddha furnace are all well-known masterpieces of Shanghai-style jade carving. Shanghai-style jade carving is also good at using the natural shapes and different colors of various types of jade, making it suitable for the materials and applying the art according to the materials. The shapes are straight and beautiful, forming a handsome and elegant "Shanghai-style" artistic style. The emergence of amber as an artistic carrier in my country can be traced back to the Sanxingdui site in Guanghan, Sichuan, more than 3,000 years ago. A heart-shaped amber pendant unearthed from the No. 1 sacrificial pit is the earliest amber work known in China. Qiu Tianbao Silver Shop, opened in 1830, was the main place for the production and identification of amber jewelry at that time, and was one of the earliest silver shops in Shanghai. At the same time, it also cultivated many amber jewelry artists. Ding Fuxiang, who was born in Qingpu, Shanghai in the late Qing Dynasty, was a craftsman of Qiu Tianbao Silver Shop at that time. He was a leader in the industry in the identification and production of amber jewelry. In 1940, his son Ding Yangren entered Qiu Tianbao Silver Shop. In 1980, his grandson Ding Daliang learned from his father Ding Yangren. In 2002, Ke Shaojun became Ding Daliang's apprentice and inherited the craftsmanship. Amber jewelry is divided into: headwear, hairpins, necklaces, pendants, earrings, rings, necklaces, bracelets, beads, court beads, and Buddhist beads bracelets. From the perspective of craftsmanship, amber jewelry is divided into two categories: inlay and non-inlay. Inlay is designed with natural amber as the main stone, combined with gold, silver, copper and other crafts. Non-inlay is divided into beading and weaving, that is, amber is used as the main stone, and it is made through traditional Chinese hand weaving, beading, sewing and other crafts. The process flow is divided into: stone cutting, grinding, polishing, drilling, design, inlay, weaving, inspection. The production process is mainly based on the traditional jewelry "inlay, weaving, beading", combined with other natural colored gemstones. Over the years, Shanghai craftsmen have integrated traditional Chinese aesthetic tastes and production techniques into amber carving art, giving amber art the aesthetic characteristics of a combination of Chinese and Western Shanghai culture.
