Create lacquer fans and experience Chinese traditional Intangible Heritage.✨💕

Lacquered fans are an art form that combines the lacquer technique with the traditional Chinese fan.

The art of the lacquered fan uses lacquer as the 'brush' and the fan as the 'canvas' to capture the charm of Chinese lacquerware.

China is the earliest country in the world to invent and use lacquerware, with a history of lacquer use dating back over 8, 000 years. From the Shang and Zhou dynasties to the Ming and Qing dynasties, China's lacquerware craftsmanship has continued to develop, reaching an extremely high level.💕

The paints used in production are made from natural mineral-based lacquer. By employing the drifting lacquer technique, different patterning effects are created on the surface of the water.💎

The end result has a lifelike and random quality to the designs, exuding a refined and vibrant aesthetic. As a representation of traditional Chinese handicrafts, the lacquered fan possesses a unique artistic charm and craftsmanship, while also providing a comfortable, refreshing sensation when used, possessing a classic and rhythmic quality.🎉

Let's encounter the traditional handmade craft of lacquered fans, which is part of the kaleidoscope of Chinese culture. They are not just practical fans, but also vessels for cultural heritage and creative expression.
