Hope Video Ring Tones of Cloisonné zòng zǐ spreading out the best blessings to everyone on any occassion.
The full name of Cloisonné is called copper padding thread weaving enamel, abbreviated as Enamel. Introduced to China from Arab region around the 13th century, through the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, Cloisonné formed a distinct national style and characteristics. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, Cloisonné products were all officially franchised and enshrined in the imperial palace. It was not until the late Qing Dynasty that it was circulated in the market as commodity for the general public, and it was exported abroad during 1821 to 1851, becoming a famous traditional handicraft in China and famous at home and abroad.
Cloisonné zòng zǐ launched for the Dragon Boat Festival this year combines traditional craftsmanship with modern artistic design. The pattern design originated from the mysterious ancient civilization motifs handed down in China, which is seemingly simple and easy, but profound and infinite. Traditional craftsmanship is applied to create this set of “Cloisonné zòng zǐ of Dragon Boat Festival” in more than 300 pieces of filigree, 20 more kinds of painted colors, ten times of firing, hundreds of processes and thousands of times of polishing. The patterns and colors symbolize health, peace, fortune, joy and longevity.
