Dongyang wood carvings are a common sight in many places, such as on antique windows and doors, various-sized craft displays, and even in furniture. These items all bear traces of Dongyang wood carvings to some extent. So, why can Dongyang wood carvings be displayed in so many forms?

This is first and foremost due to the skilled wood carving artisans of Dongyang, who have preserved this craft through the传承 of dozens of generations of artisans. Their dedication is instrumental in not only maintaining but also excelently applying this art form.

Dongyang wood carving was originally a pure craft. In the past, the craftsmen only applied this art to craft items, without integrating it with practical items in daily life. Therefore, people believed it was only for display. Later, it was applied in the construction of ancient-style buildings, and you can still see some Ming and Qing Dynasty replicas with ox legs on the beams, which are typical Dongyang wood carving craft items.

Now, Dongyang wood carvings can be seen on a variety of items, such as antique windows and doors, or hanging decorations, even on some common small craft items. Dongyang wood carvings are undergoing changes in all aspects and striving to integrate into different items. Dongyang wood carvings are like a cute, growing child, unaware that this child is also working hard to win more people's affection.
