Beijing Opera Mask

About this Artwork

Beijing Opera has a very long history, also known as "national essence '. The painting shows the Beijing Opera mask of female and male role, as well as the singing, action and costumes icons for the different roles.

Cloisonne on wood with lacquered surface, striking colors framed by copper designs shows intricate details. Unique one of a kind art comes in its own fabric covered box.

The process to produce these enamel paintings was patented in 1987. The foundation of these paints is wood. The artist pinches and curves copper wire welding into delicate patterns, pasting them on to copper molds. Then, a glaze is painted on and dried in a high temperature environment in order to firm the metal and cast its gorgeous colors forever.
