The furniture with initial usability will experience a gorgeous transformation in the hand of the engraver. The engravers use hundreds of knives to make embryos, engrave and polish... using the exquisite technique to “talk” to the wood in their hands, and carving beautiful patterns on the furniture. At this moment, the sound of the rotating fan and the sound of the chiseling wood of the masters merge into a wonderful melody.
Chen Baohua is carving the “Picture of 100 Sons”. In green hills and clear waters, Chen Baohua, the founder of this classical furniture processing factory, together with many skilled masters, has made every effort to make each furniture with his own understanding of traditional furniture. In work and life, everyone keeps learning and strives to make high-quality furniture with contemporary style through the combination of innovation and intangible cultural heritage.
The five thousand years of Chinese civilization has created a splendid and profound national culture. Solid wood furniture carries the essence of Chinese traditional culture. Each furniture has its unique cultural connotation, and becomes more profound and heavier through the carving and precipitation of the time.
Lacquering is the last process of making furniture. 29-year-old Li Wei believes that every inch of each furniture cannot be neglected. In the process of dry grinding, it is necessary to polish with six kinds of sandpaper from coarse to fine, and then go through water grinding and waxing before lacquering is finished.
