Material Heritage of Filament Mosaic Technology

Sourdrang queen Fengguan in Ming Dynasty, Jin Buyao in Qing Dynasty, Princess Li Shu's tomb crown in Tang Dynasty ... These exquisite royal jewels all come from the same craft-filigree inlay. It can be said that a history of ancient royal jewelry in China is an evolutionary history of filigree inlay. As a royal stunt, filigree inlay is the first of the "Eight Wonders of Yanjing". In June 2008, the filigree mosaic technique was listed in the national intangible cultural heritage list. The exhibition of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei intangible cultural heritage is divided into five units: sculpture, weaving, painting, calligraphy and painting, traditional medicine and performance competition, including nearly 70 projects in traditional arts, traditional skills, traditional medicine, traditional drama, traditional sports, entertainment and acrobatics, including 40 national representative projects, 7 provincial representative projects 17 and 5 representative list projects of human intangible cultural heritage. The "Eight Exquisites of Yanjing", represented by cloisonne production skills, jade carving, Qi Diao skills, ivory carving, filigree inlay production skills and gold lacquer inlay decoration skills, shows the natural interest and richness of the royal court art of "Jing Zuo". Tianjin's non-legacy projects, represented by Yangliuqing woodcut New Year pictures, clay figurine Zhang Caisu and kite Wei's production skills, have brought the bustling streets of "Jiuhedi Tianjinwei". Hebei non-legacy projects, represented by Yuxian paper-cutting, Cizhou kiln firing techniques and Fengning cloth painting, reflect the simplicity and boldness of Zhao Yan.

The filigree inlay technique, one of the "Eight Wonders of Yanjing", is an ancient royal jewelry inlay technique in China, which is on the verge of extinction. Chaohongji, a well-known jewelry company, and Rare Action, a public welfare organization, launched the project of "Handicraft for Saving Intangible Cultural Heritage-Filament Craft" in Shantou Chaohongji Filament Museum, and a seminar on Filament Craft was held simultaneously. After a lapse of four years, the Baohua Temple Fengyu Bridge, the treasure of the town hall, carefully crafted by more than ten filigree craftsmen, has also been unveiled. It is reported that this is the largest and most complete filigree craft treasure in the world. Recently, Sun Tzu, a national intangible cultural heritage, appeared in Beijing. The work is made of 1 1800.5g gold by hand, and all the contents of "Thirty-six Plans" are engraved on 45 golden slips, showing the profoundness of China's military culture.
