Ancient China Craftsmanship

I have chosen furniture to focus on from the Ancient China as there are a lot of detailed workmanship or craftsmanship in the work from the past. Most of the items that were dug out from the ground were shaped and crafted uniquely. The material being used to make the throne for the emperor in the Qing Dynasty is wood.Traditional and detailed skill are needed to carve this chair. This attracts me as during this modern generation, many people are utilising this work from ancient China. Moreover, the work that was from ancient China had made its way to the European countries which really shows that it is a successful crafting-ship. Not only that, the throne include carvings of the mythical beast which symbolises power whereby only those from the royal family of ancient China can own it. These carvings also attract people from around the world as a form of art. Most of all, it requires lots of workmanship and patience in carving the item. …show more content…
They might find the product queer looking but at the same time, it is attractive to them too. It uses wood which is durable depending on the type and being able to blend with many of the modernised design at home. Wood is capable of giving off a natural and soothing feeling. With many people owning this type of work, many industries started building items with wood as the demands of it are increasing rapidly over the years. Therefore, not only chairs are being built this way, many other household items such as cupboard, ash trays and bed frames were crafted by wood and some even being carved with interesting detail.

In conclusion, I learned that simplicity with skills might be the best way of creating new things. However, above all, creativity is still the key. We could extract some of the ideas which were passed down from the past to create a new form of art like furniture, architecture or another
