The storied evolution of copper engraving mirrors the development of China's splendid civilization.Gilt Wire Inlay: An ornate technique embedding gold or silver wires into decorative patterns. As one of China's intangible heritages, gilt wire inlay requires intricate carving and enormous patience. In present times, masters of this rare craft dwindle.
