O Design

Sobre Ivory Veil Objeto Decorativo

Ivory Veil é um objeto decorativo feito de cobre e laca natural. A forma remete ao marfim entalhado, embora nenhum material de origem animal seja utilizado. Um núcleo de cobre é moldado, recebe uma base de preparação e é então revestido com cerca de 150 camadas finas de laca natural. Após a secagem, a superfície é entalhada com motivos de pombas e peônias e polida até ficar lisa. O objeto mede 71 centímetros de comprimento, 23 centímetros de largura e 38 centímetros de altura. Ivory Veil aplica um artesanato tradicional chinês que corre o risco de se perder e oferece uma alternativa sustentável que apoia a proteção da vida selvagem.

Propriedades Únicas: This is a display item made of natural lacquer crafted using ancient Chinese techniques and shaped like ivory. It is not made of real ivory, but rather a combination of copper and lacquer materials that recreate the appearance of ivory. The craftsmanship involved is complex, and even in China, it faces the risk of being lost. Its texture is close to real ivory, and the patterns also adopt traditional Chinese artistic forms.
Dimensões e Embalagem: Its length is 71 centimeters, width is 23 centimeters, and height is 38 centimeters.

Tecnologia de Produção: First, the lacquer collected from the tree is prepared. Then, the copper material is shaped into an ivory-like form, and a layer of primer is applied to the prepared copper surface. After the primer dries, multiple layers of natural lacquer are applied, ensuring each layer is smooth and accumulating to a thickness of about 150 layers. Once the lacquer layers are dry, tools are used to carve on the lacquer surface. Finally, the surface of the workpiece is polished to ensure smoothness.
Desafio de Design: Lacquer trees are found deep in the mountains, and only a few drops of sap can be collected from each tree. Most people are allergic to lacquer, making the collection process extremely challenging. Very few people know how to make lacquer, and there are almost no reference books available. The lacquer will not cause allergy until it is completely dry. However, lacquer dries very slowly, requiring more than a year from the time of sap collection to the completion of the artwork.
Pesquisa: This is applied material and craft research. The objective was to recreate the beauty of ivory without using animal material. The method combined visual study, material comparison and making tests. Research tools included literature review, sketching, carving and surface-finishing trials. Prototype experiments examined form, texture and visual effect. The result showed carved lacquer could achieve an ivory-like elegance ethically. The project shows how traditional craft can support wildlife protection and inspire sustainable design.
Inspiração: To protect wildlife, we reject the use of real ivory. Yet ivory has long been admired for its artistic beauty, which inspired this project to recreate that elegance through a sustainable alternative. Chinese carved lacquer, made from natural lacquer resin, can be shaped freely and developed with a texture and visual softness close to ivory. This led to a carved lacquer object that echoes the form and refinement of ivory without using animal material.
Duração do Projeto: Launched in Beijing in February 2023, and completed in May 2024.
Fluxo de Operação: The object is meant to be viewed closely and appreciated from different angles. As the viewer lifts or turns it gently, the carved dove and peony motifs, layered lacquer surface, and ivory-like texture become more visible. The interaction is quiet and reflective rather than mechanical. It performs better by combining symbolic imagery, rich detail, and a smooth tactile quality, creating a deeper visual and emotional experience.
