What are the characteristics of gold enamel paper in Raoping County?

Lacquer paper is the most famous in Raoping County. At first, gold paper was a superstition used to worship gods and ancestors, commonly known as "big bills". There are many paper money shops in Huanggang, Raoping, which compete with each other, so every time I thank God, I have to fight for "big money".

The "big money" in the competition is 4 feet square, 65,438+00 layers of paper, with red paper on it and hundreds of small pieces of gold foil paper. The content is nothing more than opera characters, birds, animals, insects and fish, flowers, Bo Gu, poetry and calligraphy, which are combined with patterns to make it a whole.

Later, some people pasted all kinds of colored paper on the hollowed-out part of the gold foil pattern, which made the lines of the pattern clearer and brighter, and the whole picture was magnificent and pleasing to the eye. This is the so-called engraved gold colored paper.
