Here are some random exhibition, and sometimes just corridor displayed that caught my attention. We start with this Jade exhibition. I got to admit, I'm no fan of jade or pearl because I relate them with something I hate. (even though I did inherit a jade ring from my paternal grandma recently from my aunt....) . But the jade here, were so different from the ones I am used to. I always relate jade to green, but here, they have translucent white or pink jade which looked so delicate.
Some of the central display. I think letting those strong light shine thru the jade was a wonderful idea to let people appreciate them more. You could really see how beautiful they are, inside and outside!
A table. Forgot what it was trying to display, but I love a nice desk. Full dark wood. And all the elegant tools and decorations around it. Makes me just want to sit down and work. I'm sitting on my own nice marble table at home now blogging this. Something about a nice big desk that really attracts me.
Remember that wood carving of a elegant lady dancing in the post a few days earlier? I mentioned that there will be more later on? So here are some I saw that was just mind-blowing! I had to take a double look to ensure that it was really indeed carved out of wood! This log with a frog on it was one of them. I just couldn't believe that it was carved of wood! I thought at first it was leather, lol. But the display mentioned that it was wood carving. Just look at the detail of it! The fold! The details! Such a piece of art and craftmanship!
Here is another dancing lady. It look so delicate. Almost as if it would come alive anytime. I don't understand. How could it stand like that and not topple over. If I crafted that, I bet I would have broken her arms or ribbon accidentally in the process! Lol. Such dedication. I appreciate it very much. Thank you to those artisan who are nameless and made all these pieces. You amaze me and brought so much beauty and wonders into my life :)
