💗 A soul of restoration art～ 殘缺之美(The beauty of imperfection) ✨

鋦瓷Juci The skills with ~ ▪ 大漆 (Daqi) or“great lacquer,”：中國7000年古老的修復藝術 /It's another term for Chinese lacquer. The process involves natural raw lacquer harvested from the lacquer tree. ▪ 金繕 (Kintsugi)：早期的修復技術如「鋦補」（用金屬釘修補）後，大漆修復陶瓷，為了尋求更美觀的方法，別忘了是日本著名的「金繼」（金継ぎ），金繕工藝應用是一種利用天然漆黏合破損的陶瓷，並以金粉、銀粉等金屬粉末來點綴、強調裂痕，將其轉化為獨特的美學，體現「不完美之美」的哲學。 修復步驟大致為黏合、蔭乾、填補、打磨，最後再用漆和金粉描繪，使破損處呈現新的樣貌和價值。

鋦瓷Juci 是一種中國傳統的陶瓷修復工藝，指用延展性強的金屬片（金、銀、銅、鐵）通過敲擊成形，製成扁平菱形的騎馬釘（稱為鋦釘、鋦子），將已破碎或出現璺痕的陶瓷器結合起來的技術。

After sharing Master Lu Qinghua's video on the traditional art of juci /鋦瓷 (metal-stapled porcelain), many friends mentioned Japanese kintsugi. Before comparing these two techniques, it’s essential to understand their shared foundation—the Daqi craft. Derived from the natural resin of the lacquer tree (Toxicodendron vernicifluum), Daqi, through tapping, filtering, and oxidation, became one of East Asia’s oldest shaping and restoration materials.

🎋 Daqi : A Living Heritage of Chinese Civilization

▪ Neolithic Period (approx. 7,000 years ago): Red-lacquered wooden bowls unearthed from the Hemudu site in Zhejiang mark the earliest known use of Daqi in China. ▪ Warring States Period: Lacquered zithers and cloud-patterned cups from Chu tombs in Hubei, painted with cinnabar and azurite mixed into Daqi, retain vibrant colors after over two millennia. ▪ Tang Dynasty: Master Jianzhen introduced jiachu Buddha statues (layered linen and Daqi structures) to Japan, laying the foundation of Japanese lacquer art. At the same time, Daqi techniques like jiachu sculpture and lacquered screens flourished in Chinese Buddhist art and royal furnishings. ▪ Ming and Qing Dynasties: Decorative techniques such as carved lacquer and gold inlay reached their peak. The gilded lacquer dragon columns of the Hall of Supreme Harmony in Beijing’s Forbidden City remain a prime example. ▪ Contemporary Transmission: Daqi is still widely applied, from museum conservation at the Forbidden City to modern tea ware craftsmanship, actively bridging daily life and artistic creation.

🔧 Juci x Daqi : Metal staples stabilize porcelain; Daqi fills cracks and missing parts. Its strong adhesion, heat and water resistance make it essential in repairs. Lu Qinghua’s work shows this technique in action. 🔧 Daqi in Kintsugi : In kintsugi, Daqi is both adhesive and base. Multiple layers of lacquer, gold powder finishing—the craft takes weeks. Records from China’s Southern Song already described this use of lacquer.

I'll also share how Daqi and kintsugi (金缮) techniques work together in ceramic restoration soon.
