Comparative Study On The Protection And Revitalization Of Gold Foil Technology In China And Japan

The use of gold foil is consistent with people's aesthetic taste and spirit of the times,and has become one of the physical representatives of traditional Chinese culture because of its profound cultural heritage.Since the Eastern Jin Dynasty,Nanjing gold foil forging technology has become the leader of China's gold foil technology with its superb craftsmanship.It was included in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage in 2006.Because it has a certain production scale and has broad development prospects,it was successfully selected in the first batch of national traditional craft revitalization catalogues in 2018.Japan and China have had a lot of water since the ancient times.Since ancient times,there have been frequent and extensive cultural exchanges.The introduction of Japanese gold foil technology has gradually developed from China.The use of gold foil has also become an important part of Japanese people's lives.Japan's Kanazawa relies on its unique geographical location and skilled foil craftsmen to become Japan's most active gold foil producer.At present,China's gold foil process is facing the impact of modern industry and other aspects,and is in a critical period of survival and development.Although the gold foil process in neighboring Japan has also been affected by many factors,due to its early awareness of the protection and revitalization of the gold foil process,the gold foil industry has steadily passed the bottleneck period and regained its vitality.The measures it takes are worthy of our in-depth study.Based on this,this article selects the most representative gold foil producing areas of China and Japan,Nanjing,China and Kanazawa,Japan as the research objects,using field surveys,literature references,and summaries to summarize the process history,process technology and adopted methods of the two places.The protection and revitalization measures were analyzed.First,it clarifies the historical context of gold foil craftsmanship between China and Japan,sorts out the process development of the two representative producing areas,and analyzes the cultural value of gold foil craftsmanship from the craft exchanges between the two countries.Secondly,it summarizes the process flow and technical core of making gold foil in Nanjing and Kanazawa,and sorts out the important auxiliary materials in the gold foil process,the production process of Chinese black gold paper and Japanese foil paper,on this basis,the The gold foil process of the two places was compared.Finally,from the two parts of protection and revitalization,the application of Kanazawa Foil in Japan is summarized,and by analyzing the difficulties encountered by Nanjing Gold Foil,it is worth learning from the strategies for protection and revitalization of Kanazawa Foil.This paper believes that the gold foil technology and gold foil application technology of the two countries have been frequently exchanged in ancient times.The mutual learning of the two countries has gradually improved the gold foil related technology,from which the cultural exchange value contained in the gold foil technology can be analyzed.After summarizing the gold foil manufacturing process and the interlayer manufacturing process of Nanjing and Kanazawa,the gold foil process of the two places was compared in many ways.It can be found that although the gold foil process of the two places is different in specific processes,there is no Second.On the basis that the quality of the gold foil is basically the same,it is analyzed that the development strategy adopted by Kanazawa Foil has certain advantages.According to the problems such as the scarcity of employees,the low added value of the products,and the fierce competition in the industry,Nanjing Gold Foil is facing at this stage.The relevant measures used by Kanazawa Foil made feasibility suggestions.
