In this era of rapid development, many old objects have gradually faded out of people's field of vision and are buried in the dust and smoke of history, but there is a traditional craft, which is now integrated into the international trend with an unprecedented attitude.
It is enamel, a daily necessities commonly used by people decades ago, but due to various factors, it has gradually been replaced by ceramic or plastic products.
I thought that the future of enamel was dark, but what people never expected was that this "old star" was quietly rising abroad, and some people praised it as a "high-end artwork", and even created 24 billion income, so what is going on?
Enamel used to be very popular
Enamel, also known as "foreign porcelain", is said to have been introduced to the mainland at the end of the 19th century, and many royals and literati expressed their appreciation for this rare item after seeing it.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the mainland has the ability to independently produce enamel products, and related industries began to vigorously develop enamel daily necessities, and the enamel process has also reached a high degree of development, and many exquisite enamel products have appeared.
Slowly, enamel products into the homes of ordinary people, has received a lot of attention and love, for a time swept the country, in the sixties and seventies basically every household has enamel.
Enamel unique to the culture
In the hearts of many old people, enamel is not only a practical daily necessities, but also a work of art rich in cultural connotation, its bright colors and various patterns, all reflect the Chinese's aesthetic taste and Xi habits.
In the production process, the craftsmen have innovated in the original technology and integrated the unique local customs and culture, so we can see Chinese elements on many enamel products, which not only reflects the superb skills of the masters, but also reflects the wisdom and cultural inheritance of the Chinese.
Some enamel products also have high decorative and collection value, such as enamel bottles, enamel plates, enamel paintings, etc., which have good ornamental value and can also show personal taste and temperament.
Since enamel has so much significance, why don't people use enamel now?
New options brought about by industrialization
With the rapid development of industrialization, the emergence of new materials such as plastics and ceramics has provided people with more choices, and enamel has gradually lost its competitiveness in practicality.
You must know that the production of traditional enamel requires craftsmen to have superb manual skills, and in the tide of industrialization, this highly dependent manual production method is increasingly in line with the needs of modern fast-paced life, and the inheritance of craft technology has also ushered in a dilemma, which makes enamel production face unprecedented challenges.
In today's society, the pursuit of fashion, personalization and convenience has become the mainstream of young people, the design style of traditional enamel utensils, it seems to be more and more difficult to adapt to this trend, and it is not quite in line with the aesthetics of young people, and even some people will feel that enamel is very earthy, and the market demand has also declined.
In addition, enamel requires a high cost to make, and it requires a certain amount of energy, which is not very environmentally friendly, so people have begun to turn their attention to products that use natural materials and are more environmentally friendly.
With the blessing of various factors, domestic enamel products are gradually declining, but in foreign countries, the market size and value of China's enamel seem to be on the rise, especially in some developed countries, which can create high returns, what is the reason?
Loved by foreigners
In foreign countries, Chinese enamel is loved by many foreigners, they are deeply attracted by its unique appearance, many people think that Chinese enamel is a very beautiful, very stylish handicrafts, can enhance their aesthetics and taste, embellish their lives.
Of course, some foreigners are interested in traditional Chinese culture, they think that Chinese enamel has a deep connotation, and hope that through these goods, they can Xi learn more about Chinese history and culture, and can also express their love for China.
The beautiful patterns on Chinese enamel make some foreigners think that they are very valuable supplies at this time, so they will buy them at home and collect them, and they can also communicate and share with other collectors and enthusiasts to expand their horizons, which reflects their recognition of Chinese enamel craftsmanship.
In the future, we may see more traditional Chinese crafts emerging in the international market, and we hope that enamel can continue to create a brilliant tomorrow on the international stage.
