Daqi Lacquer: Real Natural Lacquer vs Resin Imitations
Daqi (大漆) is natural Chinese lacquer made from the sap of the lacquer tree. Artisans apply it in thin layers, allowing each coat to cure before adding the next. The process can take weeks or months and creates a deep, hand-polished finish. Resin beads may imitate the look, but they use a different material and process. Explore how YIEON brings this lacquer tradition into jewelry.
The Origin of Lacquer Art
Lacquer, or Daqi, is one of China's oldest traditional crafts, with a legacy of over 8000 years. From ancient ritual objects to modern design, it reflects timeless patience, harmony with nature, and refined aesthetics. In 1990, a red lacquered wooden strip — buried for 8000 years — was unearthed under Hangzhou's Kuanhu Bridge. Its color remained vivid, a lasting testament to the strength and elegance of natural lacquer, known as the "king of coatings." Today, this heritage lives on in our handmade lacquer jewelry—where history, nature, and artistry come together in every bead.
Crafting Lacquer: A Step-by-Step Legacy
Behind each lacquered bead lies a patient journey—often taking weeks or even months to complete. The process begins with harvesting raw lacquer from trees, a task only possible in warm, humid months and done by hand in small quantities. Natural materials are then inlaid, followed by meticulous carving and hand-painting. Each lacquer layer—applied up to 30 times—must dry and be polished for hours or days, depending on humidity and temperature. The final transparent coat seals in the richness, creating a finish that can last for generations.
FAQ
What is daqi lacquer?
Daqi (大漆) is authentic Chinese lacquer made from natural lacquer-tree sap, applied in many thin coats and cured over weeks to months.
Is daqi lacquer the same as resin lacquer beads?
No. Real daqi is natural tree sap hand-layered over time; resin lacquer-look beads are molded plastic and lack the depth and durability of genuine daqi.
How can I tell real daqi lacquer from imitation?
Genuine daqi has a deep, warm hand-polished luster, slight natural variation and weight; imitations look uniform, glassy and feel light.
