“Three Carvings” of Brick, Stone and Wood Carvings
The lacquer wares are made of wood, bamboo, leather, metal, etc., and the surface is coated with a layer of natural lacquer or colored lacquer to decorate with patterns. As early as in the Yangshao period, dating back to six or seven thousand years ago, a red lacquer wooden bowl was found in Hemudu Site in China. It proves that China is the first country to use natural lacquer in the world. The animal teeth and horn wares are sculptured with the materials like ivory, rhinoceros horn, ox horns and deer horns etc
