韩国的漆艺文化已有两千年以上的悠久历史,堪称已经渗入到内房和厢房等生活文化当中的代表性艺术品。目前,韩半岛上的主要生漆生产地为北韩平安北道泰川和南韩江原道原州,占整个半岛生漆产量的大部分。韩国产生漆的品质很好,生漆的主要成分漆酚(Urushiol)的含量高,酶的活度相当好,生漆涂层的干燥时间很短,硬度也很强。但是,南韩原州产高品质生漆的产量较少,价格也比日本产的贵,因此主要依靠中国进口。从史前时代至三国时代,韩国漆艺文化的主要技法是在生漆底上施以颜色绘制纹样,统一新罗时期开始变化为在生漆底上用螺钿、琥珀、青玉、金、银等宝石材料加以装饰。其后,高丽和朝鲜时代螺钿装饰成为漆器上所采用的主要技法。高丽螺钿在中国的宋朝也得到了高度评价,其卓越性被认可,直到现在高丽螺钿也被视为韩国的代表性艺术品之一。 South Korea’s lacquer culture has a long history of more than two thousand years and is considered to be a representative piece of art that has infiltrated into life and culture such as inside rooms and rooms. At present, the major raw lacquer producers on the Korean peninsula are Taekcheon, North Korea’s Pyongyang, and Wonju, Gangwon-do, South Korea, which make up the majority of lacquer production throughout the peninsula. The quality of the paint produced in Korea is very good. Urushiol, a main component of lacquer, has a high content of enzymes, a very good enzyme activity, and a lacquer coating has a short drying time and a high hardness. However, South Korea’s original state-owned high-quality lacquer production is less, the price is also more expensive than in Japan, so mainly rely on China’s imports. From the prehistoric era to the Three Kingdoms era, the main technique of Korean lacquer culture was to paint patterns on the base of raw lacquer. The period of reunification of Silla began to change with gem materials such as snail, amber, sapphire, gold and silver on the base of lacquer decoration. Later, the Gulai and Joseon period boll decoration became the main technique used in lacquer ware. Korea Loquat in China’s Song Dynasty has also been highly praised, its superiority is recognized until now, Korea Loquat is also considered as one of South Korea’s representative works of art.
