CHINESE LACQUER WARE,

A recent report from Mr. B. O. Nightingale, American Vice-Consul at Foochoir, deals with.j the manufacture of the lacquer ware known to the Chinese as the "No. 1 Foochow loquer." It can hardly be called an art; it is rather a oraft, the result of infinito labour and patience, since the laying on of the cost or colour requires no more skill than the simplest form of painting. The superiority of the "No. 1 Foooho lacquer over all other forms is dus to its darability and beauty; it takes more timo lo prepare (in some casas several years) and possesses a finish and depth of colour aulike any other products of the mine nature. The extreme care taken to refine tho pure lao- quer, the number of coats given, and the great quantity of gold and silver loaf usually used the last coat are the cause of thin Concerning the gold and silver leaf used, ono imparts to the lacquer a dull gold colour, in whose depths fiue gold powder may be discorned, and the other gives a silver-green effect. Sometimes a lttlo colouring matter is added, but the result is sup posed to be better without it. The quantity of gold mixed with the lan is about one-third the solling price for those articles,

The earliest record of lacquer is from the Sung dynasty, although it probably existed long before that date, but in a more crado form, It was introduced into Japan in the third century from Korea, at the time of the conquest of that country by the Empress Jingo. The seventeenth century marked great progress in the industry in Japan, and the gold lacquer became very popular, but from that time its popularity decreased and the demand 'did not revive until the last few years.

PREPARATION OF LAC The lac, as well known, is not g

The manufactured product, bat

Bap the Rhum vernicifers, or Ch'isk of the Chinese. The trae is tapped at night during the summer season and the no sold to tho con. sumer as a dried cake or in aeowi-flaid stato. It is first placed in a rectangular paa, where it is continually stirred with a spatula for about two days, then pressed by twisting the lao through a sack made of fine grass cloth and lined with a thick layer of cotton. The refined lac is put into the pan again for a day and the sama process is reposted. So prepared, the lac will answer for the first costs given the orticles, but for the final. or colour coat the lac used undergoes this process four times. The invention of the No. 1

is lacquer Baid to belong to the Shen

whose

bande Shoo Aa family, in manufacture still is. To this same family is. also accredited the invention of silk lacquer. The term lacquer ware applies only to the thing which has undergone certain prepars tions before receiving several costs of lao. Ordi- nary woodwork covered with Ningpo varnish, or ⚫ven with lac, is not tncluded. The proper la quer ware may be chiefly divided into two kinds, the ordinary and the silk.

The ordinary lacquer is applicable to almost every kind of furniture and to creamental art- icles, but is commonly applied to woodwork. Only very old wood, usually cedar, which will neither warp nor crack, is used for this purpose, Articles and ornaments of the most delicate carving are treated in this fashion. To prepare the woodwork, such as furniture, for lacquer a lacquerer scrapes the wood one or two inches wide along say crack or joint er opening that may exist; it is then filled up with lao and two or three coats of linen cloth, which will not only cover the depth but also servo to keep the parts together. After a fortnight or longer, when the Lao on the linen is perfectly dry, the woodwork is covered with a thin cost of black lac mixed with a little ching-cha, a kind of clay. the preparation of which will later be do scribed. Ten days later; a process of general polishing is applied to the article with fise pumice stono of various shapes and sizes. About every ten days a new thin scat of the las mix ture is put on. The article is always polished before receiving a new cost. After the ninth

er tenth coat of this black lac mixture, the ar ticle is thoroughly polished so as to receive the colour cost.

For the preparation of the final coat, a small portion of lacquer that has undergone the rehning process four times is mixed by a pallet knife on a stone surface with the gold or gold and silvor lea. Whon thor Gughly mixed, it is placed in the centre of thin shoot of cotton paper. The paper is then rolled together with the lacquer inside the ends baing twisted in opposite directions, until the las ooses through. This is repeated threo times. There is great waste by this process, which may also account for the price charged for some of these articles. There is hat one coating made of this lacquer. Sometimes s dat surface is decorated by adding flowers or birds with ordin- ery paint, but this is not very popular, since the colour and quality of the lacquer itself are deemed sufficient decoration.

-SILK LACQUEK,

The silk lacquer is generally applied to small. articles either for practical use or for ornament al purposes, such as vases, card suses, and images, The art is so far advanced that images of almost every description can be inade under this system, with accuracy and clearness. The process com-" mences by pasting a coat of native printing paper with rice gluo mizód 'with ching-chu powder on swell modelled clay image, care being taken to eat the paper iufo proper sizes to axit the different parts where it is pasteil; and to paste it so neatly that every wrinkle of the face or fold of the material, should there be any, will remain clear cut. After the pasting the figure is throughly washed with this thin mixture and. left to dry for two or three days. On top of the paper is then pasted the silk with a plaster of black loo and pulverized ching- chu, with still greater care as to the overlaps and folds than is required in the paper coating. Ton days later another coating of silk is added after the necessary polishing has been applied. For small articles only two coats of silk are sufficient, but in the case of larger ones one or two more coats may be added. When the silk moulding is dry and carefully finished subsequent coatings of black lae mixture are applied thereto at sa interval of about every ten days in the same manner. 68.

the other colcacing matter and the refined lac giving a lustrous and lovely tint of a uniform shade. The Jae in the ching-chu mixture used for the primary coating has passed the refining process only twice instead of four times, as is described in the foregoing for that of the last coat. A little water is added to the lac when it is being mixed with the pulverized ching-chu, Ching. chufisa refined red clay. It is dissolved in water, and after the impurities, such as sand, have been removed, the muddy water is Altored through certain layers of paper and porous tiles. The fine clay found on the top of the paper is dried into tablets or bricks, in which form it is sold at the market. This pulverized clay mixed with the lac will form a crisp costing on the wood- work or hardah the all in the silk lacquer. A gennine No. 1 Foochow loquer will stand any climate and any amount of washing, even with boiling water! In the common form of lacquer unrefined las is used for the primary coating, and that for the colour coat has not been refined more than twice. Instead of ching-chu, which is comparatively expensive, tho powder of broken bricks

is freely used.

The colour lace is very seldom or never enriched with pulverized gold and silver. Linen is substituted for silk. Very little or no polishing is done in each and every interval between the coatings, until before the last cost. Owing to cheapuess, there is much greater demand for the imitations than the genuine. Ordinary lacquer ware will zoooive on an average bat five cants, whereas No. 1 never less than nine and sometimes as many as twenty.
