On the seventh day of the first month, spring is strong
Today I will send a treasure box to the elders
There is spring, longevity, and dragons!
Let's get to know the round box of spring longevity
There is spring, longevity, and dragons!
It tells the poetry of spring
Tick color spring shou round box
It is a royal handicraft of the Qing Dynasty
Spring can't be hidden
A huge spring character blooms in the center of the lid
The glyphs are arbitrary and smooth
In the center of the word spring sits a birthday star
Smiling
There are also pine trees and deer on his side
The dazzling cornucopia under the word spring is even more eye-catching
There are two dragons flying on both sides of the spring character
Surrounded by auspicious clouds
Shuanglong seems to break through the clouds and is magnificent
Not only the lid is exquisite
There are also four groups of figures on the outer wall
The engraving is delicate and smooth
Against the backdrop of ten thousand rays of glow
Spring word, birthday star, cornucopia, double dragon breaking clouds......
on a round box
It was filled with so many auspicious patterns
There is spring and longevity
It is taken the meaning of "spring longevity".
The ancients used it as a metaphor for longevity because of the longevity of the Tsubaki tree
It was said in "Zhuangzi Wandering".
In ancient times, there were people who had a big tsubaki, and 8,000 years old was the spring, and 8,000 years old was the autumn.
Since Jiko
People use words such as "Chun Nian", "Chun Ling" and "Chun Shou" to congratulate their birthdays
The spring when everything sprouts is a good scene in the world
"Chunshou" is homophonic to "Tsubaki Shou" at the same time
It also adds the good wishes of "longevity and spring" and "longevity and a thousand springs".
One round box, four crafts!
The pattern carved lacquer is the most elegant
The making of this round box
It is a combination of four traditional crafts
The most dexterous: the light
Consecration refers to a part of the object
Leave room for a shape
It's like a little window
Then you can carve people or patterns in the space
"Large round window" and "small round window" on the lid
It's all a glazing process
Most practical: lap feet
Lapping the foot refers to being at the bottom of the object
Make a circular ring to support the body
This will make the end of the utensil more stable
The most artistic: Nishikishiki
Nishikichi's technique is somewhat similar to the "background" of today's photographs
Gorgeous patterns are depicted on the utensils as a lining ground
It is decorated with various patterns
From a distance, it won't be overwhelming
If you look closely, you can see the meticulousness of the process
The most elegant: the color
The most beautiful part of this round box
It is the use of the color picking process
The color is made of wood
First, apply a variety of color paints to the surface of the utensils in layers
One color on a layer
Layers
Pile it up all the way to the point where it's enough to carve
A certain color is required
The paint layer on top of it is removed
Then engrave the pattern on the required lacquer layer
After experiencing shade drying and grinding
The thick carved lacquer eventually becomes a cluster of moving colors
Pick out a piece of Chinese color
The color of the Ming and Qing dynasties is not only red
Such color picking utensils were very popular in the Ming and Qing dynasties
The patterns on it are also rich and varied
There is not only a different spring scene accompanied by the cry of yellow orioles and pomegranates
