Nephrite Jade ''Medusa" Sculpture
Nephrite jade sculpture carving .It took nearly two years to finish. I consider this to be probably the most beautiful, unique and daring design for a Medusa ever created. As you know Jade is a very hard stone and will always represent a great challenge for carving it in such detail and complex shapes.When I began this project I thought to myself I wanted to push my limits and create the unimaginable, something people won't expect, something that will just "wow" you not only for its beauty but because it's just hard to believe it's possible for someone to conceive an idea like this and execute it with such grace. This is probably the best Medusa version of all times, sounds like too much but for sure I think it is and it would be a magnificent sculpture for the Museum.
CARVABILITY : Even though jade is tough and harder than many minerals, it’s an ideal carving material. Its texture and durability allow carver to make unusual objects and intricate designs for centuries that do not chip or break.
Jades superiority for ancient cultures to regard as a divine gift from heaven.Ancient people believed that jade is the vehicle of communication with the unseen power of the universe .
There are a total of 27 snakes in Medusa, carefully curated, they are the most poisonous in the World, including Indian Taipan, Black Mamba, King Cobra, Banded Krait, Russell VIper, Saw scaled Viper and Yellow Bellied Sea Snake. The Medusa rests on a natural thick slab of agate quartz.

To support these comparisons, the Book of Verse says ,, when i think of a wise man, his merits appear to be like jade”
Unlike gold, the value of jade has not fluctuated,it has only risen
