Buyao is a traditional national jewelry in China, which took shape in the Western Regions during the Western Han Dynasty, and then it was absorbed and innovated.
About the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was introduced to western Liaoning through Yan, and then to Korea-Fairy Peninsula and Japan eastward, which had a far-reaching impact on local culture. Buyao is a kind of headdress made of gold, silver and jade, which has been circulating since the Song and Ming Dynasties. Its shape and texture are symbols of rank and status. After the Han Dynasty, Buyao was gradually seen by the people, and only then did it have the opportunity to spread widely in society. Among aristocratic women, there was also a time when a rocking crown was added to the crown. Wearing it on your head is more luxurious than walking.
The concept of shaking step existed in the Han Dynasty. However, it was placed within the scope of a piece of clothing from the beginning. According to the Han system, the first costume of the empress dowager and the empress dowager is "haircut, hairpin, earlobe bead and hairpin hanging bead." Tie the knot "and" the queen's clothes are the same, and her hair is shaken, but with a fake knot. She takes gold as the mountain title and white beads as cassia twig.
Nine flowers, a bear, a tiger, a red scorpion, a deer, six beasts and Nanshan Fengdate are all jadeite, with a white pearl engraved on them, and jade is regarded as China. "These two paragraphs should be seen together, according to the" Were Wu Hengchuan ",such as China's traditional and traditional. "Don't" is something equivalent to Mao's bun. Then analyze the description of Buyao in The Queen's First Clothing. " Taking gold as the mountain theme means taking gold as the base frame and decorating it with white beads.
Similar shapes, such as Yan Qian's golden flower unearthed in Sihuayingzi Township, Beipiao, Liaoning Province, are tree-like, with a square bottom and a short and wide trunk. The trunk is branched, and peach-shaped leaves hang on the tree, shaking slightly and rattling. Although there are no white beads, they are Jin Yezi, but they are very consistent with the characteristics of "Guizhi Xiangmiao". These objects also provide a vivid example for Shi Ming's explanation of shaking step, that is, "beads are hung on the top, but shaking step".
Combined with the article "Empress Deng" in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, Empress Deng "gave ten thousand yuan to Feng Guiren, one for each person, without stepping." The unit of shaking step is subject to the equipment, so it can be seen that its formal degree is by no means comparable to the so-called single hairpin decoration in later generations.
The common forms are phoenix and butterfly, with wings, or tassels or pendants. When walking, the gold ornaments will move with the swing of walking and be lifelike. If you take its steps, you will shake, hence its name.
It is mostly made of gold bent into dragons and phoenixes and decorated with pearls and jade. In the Six Dynasties, the more complicated the fancy was, or the flowers and branches of birds and animals were crystal clear and exquisite, mixed with fine hairs and stuck to the hair.
