Wood carving, as an art form that carries thousands of years of culture, each texture tells the story of time. From the beams of ancient temples to the decorations of modern homes, this technique travels through time and space, showing endless vitality and unique aesthetic taste.

Tracing back to the long history, wood carving is not only a part of architecture, but also an important carrier of cultural heritage. In traditional Chinese culture, it is often used to express auspicious meanings or religious beliefs. Whether it is complicated and fine dragon and phoenix patterns, or simple and simple figure relief, all reflect the craftsman's love of life and the pursuit of perfection.

Different types of trees are good at winning because of their texture, color and annual ring characteristics. For example, mahogany is favored by collectors because of its strong corrosion resistance and beautiful lines. Sandalwood is loved by collectors because of its rich and lasting aroma. Therefore, it can be said that "good materials match skillful work", and only the two complement each other can achieve top-level masterpieces.
With the passage of time, the style of wood carving has also experienced a diversified development process.
