When did the coating process start?

Paint cutting technology began in the late Warring States period and was used to make paint cutters in Han Dynasty. Dry paint scissors were developed on the basis of inheriting the dry paint scissors since the Warring States Period, and rose in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. At that time, I was able to create "Eight Monks" as high as a story. This kind of Buddha statue is lighter than the bronze Buddha and stronger than the clay Buddha, and it is easy to parade in a car, so it is called "walking statue".

The rise of clip sculpture is related to the historical background of Buddhism's prosperity, and it is called clip sculpture in the Golden Faxian Buddhist Canon. Dai Kui and Dai Yi, famous artists in Jin Dynasty, are famous for their outstanding creation of Buddha statues. Sandwich sculpture technology is a great breakthrough in lacquer manufacturing structure. Because a mold can make several pieces, the shape is changeable, which solves the problem of standardization of Buddha design.
