How should woodcarving crafts be maintained to prevent cracking?

Maintenance methods of woodcarving crafts:

First, wood carving crafts should not be exposed to high temperature.

Woodcarving crafts, like other works, are not suitable for high temperature environment. Exposure will make wood brittle and hard, but the texture will be destroyed, especially on the balcony. They should also be placed next to curtains and in the shade.

For example, the wood of longan wood carving is hard, so it is necessary to avoid sunlight, and the indoor furnishings should be kept in a humid environment to prevent cracking. At the same time, wood carving crafts should not be placed near open flames, fire walls, kang and stoves.

Second, wood carving crafts should not be placed in damp or extremely dry rooms.

In a very humid environment, some wood carving crafts grow "hairs". For example, green sandalwood crafts will spit out silvery white silk. Although it is a beautiful scenery, as far as I know, many people don't like it very much.

In an excessively dry environment, some wood carving crafts may partially crack. Besides, everyone's living standard is much higher than in the past. The simplest thing is that life in the north has heating in winter and air conditioning in summer. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to wood carving crafts not to blow directly at the air outlet. Keep him away from the heating pipe.

Third, it is not advisable to wipe with a towel dipped in water.

It is not advisable to wipe with a towel with water, but it is better to wipe with a pure cotton towel containing wax or grease. Many people buy wood carving crafts and like to wipe them with wet rags. If you often wipe it with a wet rag, it will make water penetrate into the wood carving and gradually damage the wood carving. So when cleaning, you can use dry cotton cloth or feather duster to dust off the wood carving crafts.

If it is found that the wood carving handicraft has a bad luster, you can use a brush to coat the surface of the wood carving handicraft with wax light and polish it with a rag. Or wipe with a waxy or oily fabric. Usually, according to whether the room is clean or not, dry cotton cloth or feather duster is often used to dust the wood carving crafts to show their natural beauty.

Of course, you can also dip a cotton towel in walnut oil and gently rub it on the surface of wood carving crafts to achieve the desired effect. But don't wipe it with a towel dipped in water, which will make the wood carving crafts too wet, but it will not achieve the expected effect and hurt them. Small pieces of mahogany can be redder and brighter if they are often wiped, which can add quaint artistic conception.

Collection skills:

At present, wood carving crafts have become a must for many collectors. In fact, not all woodcarving crafts have the investment value of collection, so we need to pay attention to methods, especially those who have just come into contact with the field of woodcarving crafts collection. In addition to distinguishing authenticity, they must also grasp several scales.

The first is to be "beautiful". Attention should be paid to the collection of woodcarving handicrafts with large market demand and bullish market. This "smart" commodity has great potential for price increase. The transaction price of three generations of woodcarving crafts in Qing Dynasty was only several thousand yuan to several tens of thousands yuan. Due to the increasing market demand, the price of woodcarving handicrafts has reached several million yuan, or even tens of millions of yuan.

The second is "beauty". The reason why woodcarving crafts are precious lies not only in their glaze as snow as silver, but also in their exquisite patterns of drawing, carving and printing.

A wonderful flower in the hundred gardens of ceramic art in Song Dynasty. It not only pays attention to simplicity and elegance, but also pursues beautiful modeling, which shows the unique artistic charm of oriental aesthetics to the fullest. The woodcarving techniques in Yuan Dynasty and Qing Dynasty are also famous for their exquisiteness. Although there are a certain number of people, the price is also high.

The third is "ancient". Woodcarving crafts belong to traditional collections, or antiques (modern collections are called playing) and antiques. Ancient artifacts are historical relics, and the preservation of woodcarving crafts is not as easy as jade and bronze stones. The older, the more expensive.

The fourth is to be "thin". Rare things are expensive. Ru Ci in the Song Dynasty, for example, is precious because of its rarity, especially the emperor Ru Ci. According to relevant statistics, the total number of Ru Ci handed down from the end of the Northern Song Dynasty to now is no more than 100, which are collected in the Palace Museum, Shanghai Museum, museums of various countries and a few collectors, so there is a saying that "one piece is not as good as Ru Ci".
