Craftsmanship shows Beijing style

She also displays one of her collections, a Qing Dynasty robe with a silk embroidered pattern of purple orchids and hundreds of butterflies.

A striking display of four panel screens with carved lacquer that resemble ancient guqin instruments captivates visitors with its fusion of artistic elegance and historical resonance.

Created by Yin Xiuyun, 77, the screens draw inspiration from poems performed to the music of the guqin, a traditional seven-stringed zither.

The exhibition also pays tribute to the late artisan Zhang Tonglu (1942-2022), who was renowned for his mastery of cloisonne, a technique for creating intricate designs on metal using colored enamel. Among his works on display are vessels and ornamental pieces featuring motifs like Tibetan antelopes.
