Intangible Cultural Heritage of China—No.2 Lacquer...

Chinese lacquerware

is one of my favorite items to shop for in Beijing.

 

It takes tens or even hundreds of layers of painting to finish a single piece. The whole process takes 4 to 6 months!

 

I like the deep red color; it’s very auspicious in China.

 

So putting lacquerware in your room brings good fortune!
