UPCOTT GILL, 170, STRAND, W.C, 1887. PRINTED BY A. BRADLEY, 170, STRAND, LONDON. 3W PREFACE. " JjJjtfN these days, when of making books there is no end," ^*^ and every description of work, whether professional or amateur, has a literature of its own, it is strange that scarcely anything should have been written on the fascinating arts of Chasing and Repousse Work. It is true that a few articles have appeared in various periodicals on the subject, but with scarcely an exception they treated only of Working on Wood, and the directions given were generally crude and imperfect. This is the more surprising when we consider how fashionable Repousse Work has become of late years, both here and in America; indeed, in the latter country, "Do you pound brass ? " is said to be a very common question. I have written the following pages in the hope that they might, in some measure, supply a want, and prove of service to my brother amateurs. It has been hinted to me that some of my chapters are rather "advanced;" in other words, that I have gone farther than amateurs are likely to follow me.

  • Application of Jingchu Cultural Symbol in Design of Turquoise Jewelry
    2020 3rd International Conference on Interdisciplinary Social Sciences & Humanities (SOSHU 2020) Application of Jingchu Cultural Symbol in Design of Turquoise Jewelry Wang Xiaoyue Department of Jewelry, College of Jewelry, China Univercity of Geosciences, Wuhan, Hubei, 430074, China email: [email protected] Keywords: Jingchu Cultural Symbol, Turquoise, Jewelry Design, Connotation Features, Chutian God Bird, Creative Expression Abstract: Turquoise is one of the four famous jades in China, which carries the Chinese jade culture for thousands of years. Jingchu culture is a strong local culture represented by the Hubei region of our country. It has a long history and is an important branch of the splendid local history and culture in our country. The combination of Jingchu cultural symbols and turquoise culture to create jewelry has a long history. This paper discusses the application of Hubei Jingchu cultural symbol in the design of turquoise jewelry under the guidance of these two cultural contents. 1. Jingchu Culture Symbol and Turquoise Culture Jingchu culture is the representative of the local culture of our country. It is a special cultural content formed in a specific historical period and a specific region. At that time, in order to inherit the cultural content of Chinese vinegar, carry forward the long history, integrate the Jingchu culture into many treasure jewelry, and form the characteristic jewelry type with the cultural symbol of Jingchu as the background, it is the turquoise jewelry which combines the Jingchu culture. Turquoise, as one of the four great jades in China, has a profound cultural background which can not be underestimated. 1.1. Jingchu Culture and Its Symbols The culture of jingchu is named after the state of chu and the people of chu.

  • Christie's Leads Americana Week in New York with a Series of Significant Collections
    For Immediate Release December 21, 2007 Contact: Sara Fox [email protected] 212.636.2680 CHRISTIE’S LEADS AMERICANA WEEK IN NEW YORK WITH A SERIES OF SIGNIFICANT COLLECTIONS Important American Silver ~ January 17 Important American Furniture, Folk Art, Prints and Decoys ~ January 17 - 18 Property from the Collection of George and Lesley Schoedinger ~ January 18 The Collection of Marguerite and Arthur Riordan, Stonington Connecticut ~ January 18 New York – Christie’s is honored to present several significant collections during Americana week on January 17-18 in New York with The Collection of Marguerite and Arthur Riordan, Stonington Connecticut, Property from the Collection of George and Lesley Schoedinger, Property of the Estate of Charles H. Carpenter, Jr., and Property from the Hirsch and Ethel D. Jacobs. Leading the Important American Furniture, Folk Art, Prints and Decoys sale is the Stevenson family scalloped-top tea table (estimate: $1,500,000- 2,500,000). This season of American Furniture and Decorative Arts will delight collectors with a range of rare objects — from waterfowl decoys to a collection of thoroughbred racing trophies. Following the recent record breaking sale in October 2007 of the “Garvan” carved pie-crust tea table, the focal point of the various owner sale is the Stevenson family Chippendale mahogany scalloped-top tea table (estimate: $1,500,000-2,500,000). Conceived and executed as a masterpiece, this tea table survives in a remarkable state of preservation. Its old, largely undisturbed surface reveals a magnificent mahogany grain and the full depth of its exuberant carving. The table’s elaborately carved details – described at that time as a ‘scalloped top’, ‘carved pillar’, ‘fluting for the pillar’, ‘leaves on knees’ and ‘claw feet’ – were among the attributes listed in Philadelphia’s 1772 cabinetmaker’s price book that made this design the most expensive option listed.

  • Piece Mold, Lost Wax & Composite Casting Techniques of The
    Piece Mold, Lost Wax & Composite Casting Techniques of the Chinese Bronze Age Behzad Bavarian and Lisa Reiner Dept. of MSEM College of Engineering and Computer Science September 2006 Table of Contents Abstract Approximate timeline 1 Introduction 2 Bronze Transition from Clay 4 Elemental Analysis of Bronze Alloys 4 Melting Temperature 7 Casting Methods 8 Casting Molds 14 Casting Flaws 21 Lost Wax Method 25 Sanxingdui 28 Environmental Effects on Surface Appearance 32 Conclusion 35 References 36 China can claim a history rich in over 5,000 years of artistic, philosophical and political advancement. As well, it is birthplace to one of the world's oldest and most complex civilizations. By 1100 BC, a high level of artistic and technical skill in bronze casting had been achieved by the Chinese. Bronze artifacts initially were copies of clay objects, but soon evolved into shapes invoking bronze material characteristics. Essentially, the bronze alloys represented in the copper-tin-lead ternary diagram are not easily hot or cold worked and are difficult to shape by hammering, the most common techniques used by the ancient Europeans and Middle Easterners. This did not deter the Chinese, however, for they had demonstrated technical proficiency with hard, thin walled ceramics by the end of the Neolithic period and were able to use these skills to develop a most unusual casting method called the piece mold process. Advances in ceramic technology played an influential role in the progress of Chinese bronze casting where the piece mold process was more of a technological extension than a distinct innovation. Certainly, the long and specialized experience in handling clay was required to form the delicate inscriptions, to properly fit the molds together and to prevent them from cracking during the pour.
