Features: This book combines colorful illustrations to showcase the evolution of lacquerware usage among the Chinese people and the unique characteristics of different eras and regions. More than just lacquer artisans emerged from the lacquer forests by the lacquer water, the exquisite lacquer civilization also nurtured masters in the history of thought. Zhuangzi once served as a lacquer garden official and wrote "The Joy of Freedom" in the lacquer forest; Qiudiao followed Confucius in his travels and founded the Qiudiao Confucian school. The Book of Songs, Tang Feng, Mountain Has Pears says: "Mountains have lacquer, and the south has millet. If you have wine and food, why not play the se?" Lacquer brought natural wealth to the ancient Chinese people, brought joy to their feasts, and brought beautiful and colorful dreams. The glory of lacquerware has faded with the flow of lacquer water, leaving behind exquisite pieces in museums. We hope this small book can help you scoop up a few waves of lacquer water, trace the precious traces of lacquer, and step into the dazzling dreams of colorful butterflies.
