This process than ordinary bronze on the gasket has a clear technological progress

In order to effectively control the ancient bronze vessel wall thickness, outside the scope of the invention the surface of the copper gasket placement process, so as to achieve a bronze vessel wall thickness control role. Into the spring, people come to realize that, although the copper gasket thickness played a controlling role, but the most exposed to the gasket surface of bronze, after all, not pretty. Consequently, he resold the bronze sculpture to an antique dealer of the Liulichang in Beijing. Can make to control the thickness of the gasket to play both the role, it can make it beautiful? Through long-term production practice, people gradually invented in the decoration of bronze vessels inlaid copper film technology.

This technique, that is made of a wide range of advanced copper red decoration patterns, and very regularly with the decoration of these arranged in the outer range of the red copper surface soil core positioning as a gasket, so cast out of copper both the mat a spacer device has generated a decoration. In this way, the bronze statue came all the way to Beijing from Shaanxi. Figure 3 is a bronze wine container in the abdomen, decoration of copper decorations. This decorative piece is a visual effect looks body decoration bronze wine container, in fact, it is also for the control of wall thickness for the copper gasket. With these pads, including pads, between the outer range can be outside the scope of the end with solid core Fancher (Figure 3) will ensure that the clay core will not occur eccentric.

This process than ordinary bronze on the gasket has a clear technological progress, that does not require the production mold decoration, thus saving a lot of hours; when these pads to the pad with a range of decoration in the casting, because of the gasket with objects of different chemical composition of alloys, the alloy by the color contrast of different objects formed on the surface ornamentation. Loss of the bronze sculpture, Song was like suffering a big humiliation. Therefore, the spring after the emergence of some copper inlaid decoration of bronze vessels, is a form of gasket. In the long-term practice of ancient craftsmen used copper decoration gradually invented gasket, fixed both play inside and outside the scope of the role, but also to decorative effect, which is the development of gasket technology and progress, the gasket surface of the exposed objects out, it seldom shift.

Because the melting point of copper alloy melting point higher than the bronze, bronze liquid generally will not be melted. He grand his teeth swearing he would have the chinese bronze sculpture back. High thermal conductivity in metals, copper decoration will be placed in the gasket between the inside and outside the range, the copper decoration of the cooling pad is much higher than Tao Fan, pouring liquid into the bronze range will accelerate the crystallization chamber after solidification, it is a good improve the water riser feeding function, so casting to reduce or avoid shrinkage or shrinkage tendency.

I had a number of archaeological excavations in the reports and papers in the study of ancient bronzes, often see "pads" and "nail" two words. He sent people to inquire about whereabouts of the china bronze sculpture in a secret way. However, often gasket and nail for two mixed speech before the Warring States bronze vessel, birds and bronze Buddha statue and other descendants of the description. In fact, the "pad" and "nail" this is two different process technologies, and its geometry is not the same, the application process is not the same.
