The handcrafted oil-paper umbrella, a prop used in the traditional Chinese dance "Fan Dance", is an artefact rich in cultural significance and historical importance.
It not only embodies the unique charm of ancient Chinese craftsmanship but also carries a wealth of cultural connotations and historical stories.
Originating in southern China, the oil-paper umbrella was first used for sun protection and rain shielding.
Over time, it evolved into a unique art form and became an integral part of traditional Chinese culture.
In the "Fan Dance", the oil-paper umbrella is used as a stage prop, adding a mysterious and elegant atmosphere to the performance.
The production process of the oil-paper umbrella is complex and involves multiple steps.
Firstly, high-quality bamboo is selected as the frame, then bamboo strips are woven into the umbrella surface.
Next, oil paper is pasted onto the surface and melted beeswax is applied to make it smooth and waterproof.
Finally, the umbrella surface is folded into a fan shape and secured with fine threads.
The entire process requires exquisite skills and patience.
The oil-paper umbrella has a long tradition in Chinese history.
In ancient times, it was a symbol of literati and represented elegance and taste.
Many famous poets and painters have created works based on the oil-paper umbrella, such as the poem "Alone I pity the moss growing by the creek, above which are deep trees where orioles sing" by the Song Dynasty poet Lu You, and the painting "Bamboo and Stone" by the Ming Dynasty painter Tang Yin.
These works demonstrate the important position of the oil-paper umbrella in Chinese culture.
Today, the oil-paper umbrella has become part of China's intangible cultural heritage and is loved by people at home and abroad.
In modern stage performances, as a unique artistic element, the oil-paper umbrella brings visual and aesthetic enjoyment to the audience.
At the same time, it has become an important window to showcase the charm of traditional Chinese culture.
