Bronze Processing and Decoration
Printing: Printing is to use a printing mold to carve out the basic pattern, and then use the stamp to cover the pattern when the mold is not completely dry.
Welding: In the early days, it was the muddy casting method-a process method in which the whole is casted at one time. Later, the split casting method appeared-a process of dividing an object into several parts and then welding them into a whole.
Engraving: Use sharp tools to engrave decorative patterns on the surface of utensils. The engravings are as thin as a hair and the lines are smooth.
Inlay: Inlay gold, silver, gemstones, etc. on utensils to increase their decorative effect. In the Spring and Autumn Period, most of them were inlaid with red copper, and gold and silver inlays were popular during the Warring States Period.
Gold and silver wrong: or called wrong gold and silver, it is a new creation of bronze craft decoration in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods.
Gilding: One of the ancient metal craft decoration techniques. The method of smearing gold amalgam is gold-plated, which is called "fire gold-plating" in modern times. This technology has appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Gilding is a kind of metal processing technology. It is a technique of applying amalgam composed of gold and mercury on the surface of copper ware, heating to evaporate the mercury, and making the gold firmly attached to the surface of the copper ware without falling off.
Hollow out: penetrating the wall of the device to form a decorative pattern of virtual and real.
Lost wax method: It is a precision casting method for metal objects such as bronze. Way is to make the model of casting with beeswax, then fill the loam core with other refractory materials and spread into outer model. After heating and baking, the wax film is completely melted and lost, so that the entire casting model becomes an empty shell, and then the solution is poured into it to cast it into an utensil. The utensils cast by the lost wax method can be exquisitely carved and have the effect of hollowing out. It has a long history in our country, also known as the "investment method".
