In the showroom, other lights were not turned on, only a dragon and phoenix lamp was lit in the center. If you look closely, you can see that the stitching, workmanship and materials are much finer than the other lamps. Zhu Jinze was reaching out to touch it, and stationmaster Li hurriedly touched it.
He shouted to stop: "You can only look at it, but you can't move it."
Jin Huabin thought about it and said: "It's so expensive, it must be sent to the National Post Office, right?"
Webmaster Li smiled and said: "This work will be sent to BJ in two days. I don't know if it will be selected yet."
While talking, Lou Hongjuan closed the curtains and turned on all the lights. There was a white lamp on the roof, and the light and shadow in the room were brilliant. Zhu Jinze couldn't stop praising it and said: "It's really like spring. People are like jade in the world."
Under the burning lamp, the moon is like silver. I am pitying the fire tree for its thousands of spring flowers, and suddenly I see the clear light reflecting the moon. "Ah."
Su Yuehong noticed carefully that the light of the dragon and phoenix lantern in the center seemed softer than other lamps, and hurriedly asked: "This lamp seems to be different from other lamps. As the ancient poem goes, shark beads are still full of water when they go out to sea, and the hall is filled with sleeves full of people wanting to live."
It's cold. The candles don't block the shadows in the sky, but the faintness can be seen from the moon. "What's the difference between the craftsmanship and others?"
Stationmaster Zhu explained: "This is the difference in the needles used. It uses more than ten embroidery needles of different sizes to prick the holes. The smallest embroidery needle pricks the holes. The needle is slightly thicker than a hair, but only one centimeter long.
This kind of needle can float on the water, so it is also known as "floating on water". The effect of using it to puncture is very good. There are about 50 puncture holes per square centimeter on the wall of each lamp. This way
The light is emitted from these pores, and the light is soft and bright, which has both practical use and ornamental value."
"What is homesickness? A glass of wine with a spring breeze, a lamp with ten years of rain in the rivers and lakes." Zhu Manze looked at the lamp and said leisurely: "When my son came home for the first time after entering college, I told him, Dad, I am here
There are lanterns hanging at the door. Even if you are walking far away, you can still see your home. You can follow the lights and go home. My son graduated and stayed in other places. He returned home a few years later. This is what he said to me.
The first sentence was, "Dad, where is our old house? There are many new reinforced concrete buildings in my hometown. The flavor of my childhood is gone, and I feel abandoned. Time flies, and the memory will wither, and most of it will be different from my hometown.
The connection with me has been broken like a rope, so we must have such a lamp to illuminate our homesickness and guide my long way home..."
Boneless lantern = nostalgia, for a while, the two found a common topic, holding hands and sitting on the stool next to the showroom, chatting about their children who were studying and working outside.
Su Yuehong pulled Lou Hongjuan to ask her about the stamps on the lanterns. Lou Hongjuan opened her notebook and couldn't help but excitedly talked about her understanding of the stamps on the lanterns: "After the people from the post office came to us, I checked the information.
The earliest one was on the Lantern Festival in 1981 (February 19). The former Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications issued T60 "Palace Lantern" special stamps, a complete set of 6 pieces. The so-called palace lantern refers to the palace lantern, which is one of the distinctive handicrafts among Chinese lanterns.
1. It is famous for its elegance and palace style. The main images of this set of stamps are "Flower Basket Lamp", "Dragon Ball Lamp", "Dragon and Phoenix Lamp", "Treasure Basin Lamp", "Grass Flower Lamp" and "Peony".
"Lamp".
Residents of Macao and Hong Kong also retain the traditional custom of making and viewing lanterns. The Post Office of the British Hong Kong authorities also issued a set of 4 "Hong Kong Lanterns" to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival on September 6, 1984. The selected lanterns are all Lingnan characteristic lanterns:
Phoenix lanterns, unicorn lanterns, butterfly lanterns, and fish lanterns are set against a black background, truly showing the bright scene of lanterns at night.
"On February 28, 1985, a set of 4 T104 "Flower Lantern" special stamps was issued. The stamp patterns were "Nine Lotus Offering Auspiciousness", "Dragon and Phoenix Presenting Auspiciousness", "Hundred Flowers Blooming", "Gold and Jade" made by contemporary Chinese folk craft masters.
"Man Tang" inherits tradition while being innovative, cleverly conceived and ingenious.
Lanterns have the meaning of light and birth among the Taiwanese people across the Taiwan Strait. Lighting the lanterns means illuminating the future, and the Taiwanese language lanterns and ding are homophones for giving birth to boys. Therefore, in the past, women would deliberately walk under the lanterns during the Lantern Festival in the hope of "getting pregnant".
"Lamp feet give birth to eggs" (that is, if you walk under the lamp, you will have a boy). On January 16, 1993, in conjunction with the Taipei International Traditional Crafts Exhibition, Taiwan's postal department issued a set of 4 "Chinese Traditional Crafts" stamps.
The second "lantern" pattern shows craftsmen painting lanterns.
On February 26, 2002, a set of 4 stamps in the "Taiwan Folk Activities (Part 1)" was issued. The first "Sky Lantern" shows the remote Pingxi folk on the island who use colored lanterns to pray for blessings on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
Ceremony."
Su Yuehong asked: "I remember that Dragon and Phoenix Chengxiang has been on stamps many times. Why did you choose this pattern to participate in the competition this time? At the same time, what are the different characteristics of this stamp lamp? Can you reveal it in advance?
”
"Well, the pattern is designated by the Post Office. The stamp design is very creative. First, the shape of the lantern is outlined on the edge, and the style of the lantern is presented in the middle, as if there is a lamp in the lamp. It is then combined with the imitation seal font to create an ancient meaning. The ribbon from Shaanxi
The "fish lantern" with distinct symbolic meaning is a standard "symbolic lantern" that simulates the form of natural things, and contains the auspicious meaning of "full of gold and jade" and "abundance every year"; the lifelike "cabbage lantern" comes from BJ
, with a simple life atmosphere, reminds people of the prosperous lantern market in Dengshikou in the Ming and Qing Dynasties; "Qinhuai lanterns are the most colorful in the world", and the "lotus lantern" from Nanjing Confucius Temple shows the "gentleman in the flower"
The aura of holy fragrance; as a representative work of "needle-punched boneless lanterns", the "Butterfly Lamp" is a hand-made representative lantern in Foshan, Guangdong, with gorgeous peonies and colorful butterflies as the main body, and the overall shape is exquisite and exquisite
, divided into three layers: upper, middle and lower, symbolizing rising step by step. The wide variety of ingenious lights are like a painting with beautiful forms and colors, which makes people intoxicated. Our lanterns represent Zhejiang’s participation in the election. There are 6 "dragon and phoenix lanterns" in total.
It is made of 20 pieces of paper pasted together, with a dragon and a phoenix on both sides. The lamp body is exquisite and clear, and the patterns shine through the embroidery needles. The dragons and phoenixes are dancing, which is good luck."
Jin Huabin heard the overtone of the words, which meant that the stamp was definitely fixed. Forums are like news, and what they focus on is timeliness. Time is the click rate and the number of registrations. Today's trip to Bangtan was very fruitful, he said to
Su Yuehong winked, indicating that she could go back and edit articles. In the next few days, the number of forum registrations will definitely increase significantly.
"Today is a good day. What you want can come true..." On the way back to the cultural station, Jin Huabin was humming a tune while driving, very happy. Seeing this, Su Yuehong asked: "I just saw you
I had a great time chatting with Zhu Jinze nearby, what other shocking information are you hiding from me?"
