 <div style="clear:both;"></div>Over the longstanding <span style="font-weight: bold;">Chinese history</span>, numerous treasures and heritages have been left behind, among which the lacquer art is a brilliant one. China is the earliest country in the world using natural lacquer. In the early 1970s, archeologists unearthed a red lacquer wood bowl in an excavation in the Neolithic Hemudu remains in Yuyao, Zhejiang Province. It is estimated that the bowl was made 7,000 years ago, the oldest existing lacquer ware in the world. <p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Traditional Chinese lacquer art</span> applies natural lacquer liquid from lacquer trees. China is abundant in lacquer resources. Lacquer trees in Mainland China are distributed in some<br />550 counties in 23 provinces.</p><div style="clear:both; padding-bottom:0.25em"></div><p class="blogger-labels">Labels: <a rel='tag' href="http://www.fineasiangoods.com/Lacquerware/labels/Chinese Lacquer Art.html">Chinese Lacquer Art</a></p>
