Brief introduction of Huiwen Baohua Group

Palindrome and baohua are two modes.

Ripple refers to a traditional geometric decorative pattern, which is folded horizontally and vertically to form a "back" shape. Because of its repeated forms, the people have the saying that wealth is endless. According to the characteristics of its patterns, people give the meaning of continuous palindromes and good luck. Two consecutive palindromes can present a unified visual effect, so they are often used as spacing or sewing patterns, while palindromes appearing in brocade patterns are usually composed of four consecutive squares.

Baohua, also known as Bao and Bao, is one of the traditional auspicious patterns in China and one of the three auspicious treasures in China, which prevailed in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

According to legend, it is a decorative pattern, which means "treasure" and "fairy". Ornamental composition usually takes a certain flower (such as peony and lotus) as the main body, with other flowers and leaves of different shapes and sizes embedded in the middle. Especially in the flower core and petal base, the round beads are arranged regularly, like sparkling pearls, with multi-layer fading, rich and precious, hence the name "Baohua". In gold and silver wares, Dunhuang patterns, stone carvings, fabrics, embroidery and other aspects, there are common rare flower patterns.

Treasure pattern is one of the traditional decorative patterns in ancient China. It sums up the perfect deformation of petals, buds and leaves from natural images, and is formed by artistic processing and combination.

This method of dealing with deformation can not be separated from the inspiration of gold and silver jewelry inlaid with fine gold since Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. In China, there are patterns in the bronze decorations of the Warring States Period, such as the bronze lotus handle unearthed from No.1 Warring States Tomb in Shanbiao Town, Jixian County, Henan Province, and the six-petal flower on the bronze tripod cover unearthed from the same tomb.

Gold and silver wares in Wei, Jin, Sui and Tang Dynasties often take rich flower heads as specimens, and inlaid jewels on the petal contour line, flower center and flower center contour line.

In the Tang Dynasty, the pattern of precious flowers absorbed the method of Buddhist art in color setting, changed from shallow to deep layer by layer, and the shape was in a radial format with many sides, which combined blooming, semi-blooming, budding flowers with buds and leaves to form an ideal flower that was more beautiful and richer than flowers with natural images, that is, the so-called "precious flowers".

Baohua in Tang Dynasty is a very popular decorative theme, which is widely used in all kinds of silk fabrics, handicrafts and architectural decoration, and its forms are also very diverse.
