Beijing 2008 Olympic Games Commemorative Gold Medal Part
Exquisite porcelain plates are dotted with exquisite eyes. There are 24 auspicious clouds on bronzes in the Spring and Autumn Period, symbolizing good luck and representing the 24 solar terms in China. At the same time, the exquisite porcelain plate has a square design, forming the shape of the outer circle and the inner side. This inherits the ancient cosmology of "the sky is round and the place is round", is an astronomical theory of harmony between heaven and earth, and conveys the meaning of "harmonious Olympics". The Olympic gold plate is embedded in exquisite porcelain plates and placed on a mahogany base, which exudes endless artistic charm and conveys the beauty of fashion. The rosewood base is made of rosewood, one of the four famous trees in China. Carved by Mr. Xu, a woodcarving master, it means "Qinglong, White Tiger, Suzaku and Xuanwu", representing east, west, north and south. The combination of Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku and Xuanwu presents a harmonious and symmetrical aesthetic feeling, which contains a strong national spirit and a distinctive oriental flavor, symbolizing the harmonious life of the Olympic family. Supporting the Olympic gold medal means supporting the harmonious values of the Beijing Olympic Games.
Qinglong: the God of the East. The East Twenty-eight Nights is imagined as Jackie Chan, which belongs to wood blue, so it is called Qinglong.
White tiger: the god of the west. Twenty-eight lodges in the west are imagined as tigers, which are golden and white, so they are called white tigers.
Suzaku: God of the South. Twenty-eight lodges in the south are imagined as birds, which belong to fire and are red in color, so they are called Suzaku.
Xuanwu: the God of the North. The East Twenty-eight Hostels are supposed to be turtles, which belong to the color of water, so they are called Xuanwu.
Master Xu, a member of the woodcarving Committee of China Arts and Crafts Society, has been engaged in woodcarving for 46 years and enjoys a high reputation in the industry. The woodcarving large-scale floor-to-ceiling screens of "Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix" and "splendid china" were collected by Beijing Arts and Crafts Museum and Nanyuan, Taiwan Province Province respectively. The woodcarving platform screen "Four Gentlemen" created in 2005 also won the "Gold Medal" of the China Woodcarving Pearl Award.
