Where did you learn mahogany carving?

You must learn from the teacher, because it is very difficult and almost impossible to explore by yourself. You can go to the mahogany furniture factory to learn. There is no such opportunity to learn mahogany carving in other places.

Mahogany carving, a traditional carving art of Han nationality with a long history in Suzhou, has formed a "Soviet-style" style with simple shape, bright lines, excellent workmanship and polished light since the Ming Dynasty. When processing "Soviet-style" mahogany carving products, the wood should be dry and the traditional tenon-mortise structure should be adopted to control the shrinkage, deformation and cracking of the products.

The mahogany carving of Huang Jing Wang, which has been circulated for a hundred years, was handed down by Wang Rongsi, a carpenter in Xiangshan, Wuxian County. All kinds of carving crafts and high-grade mahogany furniture all adopt traditional techniques, with unique shapes and excellent production. According to the survey, almost all the sculptors in Taicang graduated from the Wangs. Now, exquisite mahogany carvings have gone to the international market, especially in Japan. Taicang's overseas dignitaries will also come to Huang to select some fine products as precious gifts for international friends.
