Lacquer Art ......

Shang Ya has some understanding. About six years ago, Qin Huai had a relationship with Mr. Gan, a lacquer master who restored rhino leather paint, at the China Arts and Crafts Expo.

It's just that I haven't seen Mr. Gan's works.

Lacquerware must be beautiful, right?

Shang Ya looked forward to it, in fact, she hadn't seen Qin Huai's little brother concentrate on polishing a work of art for three years, and she missed Qin Huai's little brother's expression and eyes.

At night.

Shang Ya excerpted some pictures of Qin Huai's achievements in the past three years and released the news.

[In the first year, Qin Hezhou did not have any works.

The following year, Qin Hezhou did not have any works.

In the third year, Qin Hezhou still had no works.

In the fourth year, Qin Hezhou built a veterans' museum, where the history told by veterans of the war was available for everyone to hear for free. 】

In the dynamic, the word pleading is used.

This is not Qin Huai's little brother's character, but it is Qin Huai's little brother's request.

He has always been conceited.

No matter what work you create, it is always you who like to see it or not, whether you like to buy it or not, and I will not ask for your attitude.

Only in the museum about veterans, Qin Huai's little brother let her use it and beg for the first time.

Presumably.

Is it also to appeal to more people to understand that period of history?

Qin Huai's little brother is really well-intentioned.

……

The next few days.

Qin Huai occasionally goes out to the Veterans Museum, and most of the time, he stays in the study, slowly regaining the rhythm and mentality of life when he once created, not in a hurry, not sad or happy.

Although two hundred million are owed.

But there is always a honey indifference.

These days.

Xiaoya and Xiaoru are picked up by Qin Huai and Shang Ya from kindergarten, as long as the door is opened, the two cute babies will jump out and rush out and throw themselves into Qin Huai's arms to rub and rub, Xiaoya is even more coquettish.

The whole process had to be carried home by Qin Huai's father, as if there were nails under his feet.

Time passed quietly.

Qin Huai bought wood and lacquer, and finally arrived.

That night, Qin Huai called them to the work hall.

"The first time I come into contact with lacquer, I will be allergic. But after the first allergy, it will increase immunity and produce antibodies, so our family will have a neat allergy. ”

Qin Huai also had no choice but to get vaccinated first.

So the family was neatly allergic.

……

"Dad, what are you doing?"

Xiaoya had a shadow on the studio because of her allergies, but Qin Huai's father was inside, and she wanted to stick it again, so she poked out a small head and secretly looked inside.

"I'm making lacquerware. ”

Qin Huai replied, and was using a wooden knife to cut the camphor wood embryo.

"Cookies? Are they cookies? Can I eat them when they're done?"

The little girl automatically associates lacquerware with cookies.

Qin Huai: "......"

"Dad is working, don't bother casually. ”

Shang Ya walked over with Xiao Ru in her arms at this time, and the three of them sat opposite Qin Huai, watching silently.

Qin Huai's little brother six years ago was the same.

In front of her, he was intently carving one piece after another that was about to become a classic.

Six years have passed in the blink of an eye, and there is no thing or wrong, only the old one, the white head is as new, and the original intention has not changed.

Maybe it's too quiet.

Maybe Qin Huai was afraid that Shang Ya and the little guy would find it boring.

Qin Huai slowly spoke:

"At a time when the solemnity of bronze ware was gradually buried in the dust of history, and the light of porcelain had not yet come, lacquerware was once infinitely beautiful in Chinese history.

It is the "椟" of "buying and returning pearls", and it is more precious than gold and silver jewelry;

It is the 'bud' of the 'meandering water', floating on the winding stream, carrying the elixir and jade liquid;

It is also a case of 'raising eyebrows', holding up the love between husband and wife......"

Shang Ya fell into the blindfold, are the utensils in these familiar idioms all lacquerware?

She didn't know wow, alas, I'm afraid that in this life, I will have to stop learning and not knowing.

Qin Huai looked at Shang Ya, smiled dotingly, and patiently explained:

"Han Feizi Waichu Said Upper Left" records: "The Chu people have sold their pearls to Zheng, which is the cabinet of Mulan, smoked with cinnamon pepper, decorated with pearls and jade, decorated with roses, and compiled with feather cui. The Zheng people bought their coffins and returned their pearls.

Among them, the "Cabinet of Magnolia, smoked with cinnamon peppers, decorated with pearls, decorated with roses, and decorated with feather emeralds" is lacquerware, and it is very top-notch lacquerware. Just by looking at the description, you know that it must be very expensive.

It is a type of sake vessel that is often made of wood and can float on water, and most of them are lacquerware.

The case is better understood. ”

Shang Ya nodded again and again, understanding a little.

As for the two cute babies, they didn't listen to it at all, and they didn't understand it, anyway, their parents laughed happily when they were there.

"In fact, there are two kinds of trees that have a profound impact on the course of our Chinese civilization. One is the tea tree, and the other is the sumac tree. And lacquerware is indeed the most authentic, natural, elegant and precious artwork given by nature to the Chinese family.

But unfortunately, it met porcelain.

There are so many advantages of porcelain!

First of all, the manufacturing cycle is short, compared to the two or three years of construction time for lacquerware, the firing process of porcelain can be said to be lightning fast.

Secondly, porcelain is beautiful and ingenious, and all the advantages of lacquerware are possessed by porcelain, and even porcelain is always more time-saving and labor-saving than lacquerware.

In addition, you can freely create and design patterns on the porcelain body.

Therefore.

Lacquerware had to slowly withdraw from its dominant position, and although many processes were preserved, the glory days are no longer there.

Nowadays.

Fuzhou reborn lacquer art, Pingyao Tuiguang lacquer art, Shuchuan lacquer art, Yangzhou lacquer art are still the four major Chinese lacquer arts.

But the fame is far inferior to many kilns.

You may be able to blurt out blue and white porcelain, white porcelain, Jingdezhen, Ru kiln, Ge kiln, underglaze colorful ......

But when it comes to the origin of lacquerware, I'm afraid I can only be confused.

From the perspective of historical progress, the weakening of lacquerware is inevitable.

But.

In this art industry, which seems to be a bit decaying compared to porcelain, there are also masters who are sticking to it.

For example, Mr. Gan has sharpened his sword for ten years, restoring the top craftsmanship of the Tang and Song dynasties - rhino leather lacquer, and pulling back the already weak lacquer art from the edge of being eliminated by porcelain. ”

Qin Huai chiseled out a small fruit and vegetable plate under his hand.

Sandpaper is being sanded to smooth the surface of the fruit and vegetable plate like paper.

He is preparing for the lacquer, in order to make the finished product smooth as a mirror, then the lacquer embryo at this time must not appear a little bit of potholes!

The disc rotated in Qin Huai's palm, using his fingertips to constantly test the smoothness of the embryo surface, if there was a pothole, Qin Huai could detect it.

Touch the surface of the appliance inch by inch, and even make every inch of the embryo surface, you know it clearly.

That's ingenuity.

It is also Qin Huai's serious attitude as always.

The slender fingers rubbed against the camphor wood, making a rhythmic, rustling sound, as if it were art singing in a low voice.
