琉球漆艺的过去与现在

The Past and Present of Lacquer Art in Liuqiu

琉球漆器作为琉球群岛最具特色的工艺制品之一,其形式及风格别具一格,不同于周边各国所出产的漆器。琉球漆器尤其以螺钿镶嵌为特色,极为偏爱各种朱红色,特别用以制作漆器装饰的衬底。另外,琉球漆器亦擅用各种琉球本土的装饰母题,这些装饰题材有别于东亚各国的漆器装饰。琉球漆器有着自身的独特之处,但同时又受到来自中国、日本与东南亚等国家漆艺的影响。

Liuqiu lacquerware is one of the most artistic products of the Liuqiu Islands,and represents a form and style of lacquerware which is distinct from that of the surrounding cultures.The use of mother-ofpearl in particular is a common feature of Liuqiu lacquers,as is the use of particular shades of red,especially as a background.Additionally,Liuqiu lacquerware is distinguished by the use of various native Liuqiu artistic motifs,which is rather less common in the rest of east Asian conuntires.Though distinct in its own ways,it is strongly influenced by Chinese,Japanese,and Southeast Asian lacquer.
