Chapter 1268 Filigree Inlay

Besides, filigree inlay, after all, Chen Wenzhe is using this technique instead of gold lacquer inlay!

Filigree inlay is referred to as flower inlay, also known as fine gold craft, which is a traditional handicraft that has been passed down for a long time.

Mainly used in the production of royal ornaments, it is a combination of two production techniques of "filigree" and "inlay".

Filigree uses gold, silver and copper as raw materials, and adopts traditional techniques such as pinching, filling, saving, welding, weaving and stacking.

Compared with gold lacquer inlay, this craft is much finer, so it is a fine gold craft.

The focus is on fineness, and the technique of inlaying is also different from that of gold lacquer inlaying.

Filigree inlays use techniques such as frustrating, hammering, hammering, stuffing, beating, collapsing, squeezing, and inlaying to make metal plates into brackets and melon seed-shaped grooves, and then inlaid with pearls and gems.

The filigree inlay technique originated from the gold and silver interlocking technique in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, and reached a superb artistic level in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.

Especially good at weaving and stacking techniques.

And it is also commonly used to achieve a resplendent and resplendent effect.

The extensive use of gemstones and the perfection of gemstone inlay technology is the most important contribution of Ming Dynasty filigree inlaid jewelry to traditional jewelry in my country.

It has changed the traditional jewelry of the Chinese nation, which emphasizes decoration and despise gemstones.

Especially in the Qing Dynasty, due to the gradual depletion of gemstone resources, Diancui and burnt blue were used to replace the position of gemstones.

Today, the filigree inlay technique only exists in Shendu and Xidu.

In particular, the filigree inlay technique in Shendu is the most complete.

Shendu Filigree Mosaic is a concentrated representation of the characteristics of Chinese court filigree mosaic.

In June 2008, the technique of filigree inlay was included in the list of national intangible cultural heritage.

In fact, simply speaking of filigree inlay, many people don't know what kind of craft it is.

But when it comes to a top-level national treasure, anyone who has seen it should understand the difficulty of filigree craftsmanship.

This treasure is the golden silk wing crown of Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty. Many people have heard of this exquisite filigree inlaid handicraft.

This is the hat worn by the emperor. It uses a combination of various techniques, and the production process is very complicated.

Not to mention how much work and how much money it took. If you want to make such a golden silk wing crown, you must first make a tire shape and apply filigree, gong, chisel and other techniques.

After welding, semi-finished products are made.

Then it is pickled, burnt blue (coated with glaze), gold-plated or silver-plated, pressed bright, inlaid with gemstones, etc. It is made.

Filigree inlay includes two crafts. Filigree is made of gold and silver as raw materials, drawn into filaments, and braided into shape;

Inlaying is to beat gold and silver sheets into shape, and insert pearls and gemstones to make decorations.

The whole process is very complicated. Firstly, tires need to be made for modeling;

Then use the methods of stacking, building, weaving and weaving to shape the filaments and weld them;

After biting acid (pickling), burn blue or gold-plated silver, and then brighten.

This is a semi-finished product, which is then "inlaid with jewels", usually pearls and gems.

It is often necessary to "dot emeralds", not emerald emeralds, but to paste the green and blue feathers of kingfishers on the blank spots of the filigree.

The emerald blue of the old jewelry sold in the cultural relics market often falls off when you touch it with your hands, that is, the feathers of kingfishers.

The representative work of Diancui craftsmanship is the phoenix crown of Empress Xiaoduan of Ming Dynasty.

Since ancient times, the clothing accessories and phoenix crowns of emperors and empresses have been decorated with kingfisher and toba.

After a long time, it is still as shiny as new, bright and shiny.

The kingfisher feathers used in Diancui have ten feathers on each of the left and right wings, which are called "big strips" in jargon.

There are eight tail feathers, which are called "tail strips" in jargon.

Therefore, a kingfisher generally only uses about 28 feathers.

Chen Ziang, a writer in the Tang Dynasty, once wrote about this: "It is tiring to believe in so many talents, and I sigh for this rare bird."

In 1933, the last Diancui factory in our country was finally closed because the kingfisher feathers had been sold out.

Later, due to the protection of birds and the cruel production process, it was replaced by burning blue in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China.

The filigree inlay technology had already taken shape as early as the Spring and Autumn Period. The gold and silver cross in the Warring States Period and the gold and silver pintuo in the Tang Dynasty were its predecessors.

The Tang Dynasty "Bronze Mirror with Feathers, Flying Phoenixes, Flowers and Birds, Gold and Silver Flat and Painted Back" in the collection of Huaxia History Museum is a typical representative.

In the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, Shendu formed the largest filigree production center in the country.

The Ming Dynasty reached a high level of art, and the Qing Dynasty had greater development. Famous products continued to emerge, many of which became court tributes.

Filigree inlay is a traditional court art, and its craft is complex and cumbersome.

The basic techniques of filigree craft can be summed up in eight words: pinch, fill, stack, base, weave, weave, save, and weld.

These eight techniques can be matched in order according to the actual situation in the specific operation process.

The mosaic technology is mainly attached to the filigree technology, or in other words, the filigree technology also highlights the mosaic technology.

From the perspective of filigree inlay technology in Shendu during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the inlay techniques are mainly divided into filing, gong, collapse, extrusion, and inlay.

Its craftsmanship is exquisite, its shape is beautiful, and it has many varieties. It has obvious Chinese characteristics and national style, and embodies the wisdom and artistic creativity of the Chinese nation.

Because the palace set up handicraft workshops and handicraft factories, skilled craftsmen from all over the country were concentrated, so that the filigree inlay production skills between the north and the south could be exchanged.

In the end, it integrated the strengths of minority arts and crafts and became an important part of court art.

There are many representative works of filigree inlays. In addition to the two hats mentioned above, there are also the golden crown of Emperor Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, the Jinou Yonggu Cup in the Qing Dynasty, the gold peach tree bonsai in the silver hexagonal pot, the crown with gold inlaid jewelry, and the modern jewelry. Temple of Heaven Hall of Prayer for Harvests, Chinese Century Dragon, etc.

Filigree inlay is the most exquisite in Shendu, which was the imperial capital of Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, and there are concentrated goldsmith craftsmen at home and abroad.

Women in the emperor's harem need a lot of decorations and are extremely extravagant.

Therefore, there are more than 100 gold shops and silver buildings in Dashilan, the flower market and the East Si and West Si archways in the old god city, producing this kind of filigree inlay.

The filigree inlay has two purposes, one is practical.

This kind is called "piece work": there are hand mirrors, flower sockets and various boxes, bottles, jars, etc., with small and exquisite shapes;

The same species can have different shapes, such as flowers, goldfish, mandarin ducks, and swans.

The main body becomes a container, and the shape is decorated or deformed.

For example, the head and wings of a swan are composed of filigree, crowns and eyes inlaid with jewels.

The second is furnishings, named "decorations".

Filigree inlaid ornaments can be roughly divided into four traditional categories.

It is furnace smoke, animals, buildings and people.

For example, the pagoda in the building class is made of filigree for the whole body, the tiles are made of precious stones for the top of the pagoda, the plaque is made of ivory, the bell is made of gold-plated copper, and the base is made of bricks made of black jade wrapped in filigree.

This kind of craftsmanship shows the exquisite craftsmanship of filigree craftsmen everywhere.

Filigree mosaic into the 21st century, there has been greater innovation.

For example, the combination of gold, K gold, silver, and jade is more brilliant and gorgeous, and it also shows the ingenuity of the idea.
