Chinese Traditional Crafts
The Chinese Craftpedia Portal is dedicated to the documentation, preservation, and global understanding of China’s traditional crafts and artisanal techniques. With thousands of years of continuous cultural development, China has produced one of the world’s most diverse traditions of craftsmanship — from ceramics and textiles to lacquer, metalwork, papermaking, bamboo art, and beyond.
This portal presents each craft in a clear, structured, and research-based format. Articles include:
- Historical background
- Regional and cultural context
- Materials and tools
- Techniques and methods of production
- Characteristic styles and visual features
- Cultural meaning and traditional usage
Craftpedia is not only an encyclopedia — it is a platform for preserving cultural heritage so that it remains accessible for future generations.
