In the tang dynasty， Chinese lacquer ware was introduced to Japan and was deeply loved by Japanese people， and was deeply influenced by China， especially in techniques and patterns.However， Japanese lacquer artists are not limited to this， but they try to assimilate the local culture through continuous absorption induction into the production of lacquer ware.Therefore， in the continuous exploration of the lacquer artists， a kind of lacquer ware civilization system that belongs to their national characteristics gradually formed.Scholars have commented that in the history of world civilization， no civilization has been so enthusiastic about the tradition of indigenous civilization and so widely consumed foreign civilization. Such twists and turns， such an artistic adaptation and balance of the two， thus create their own civilization characteristics.

It is well known that Japan is a developed country， modern life level is quite high， but they are now has always maintained a tradition that is lacquer as the habit of daily necessities， and attaches great importance to traditional implements in the position in modern life， especially in the Japanese diet culture reflect incisively and vividly.According to the survey， the average household in Japan has no less than 10 paint pallets， plus a set of lacquer ware such as bowls and cups.Many families in Japan have to use lacquer bowls and lacquer chopsticks to enjoy delicious food and food.They put the annual meal in a double-layer lacquered box， with two or four small boxes in each layer， and the dishes were served in them.In Japan there is such a tradition， on the first day that day， the first lunar month with xiu hip flask to wine made of lacquer paint filled in small spiced sake， family regardless of gender， according to the size of the age， from the young people started so on to the elders， take a drink， it is an important content of the annual New Year.

Throughout all over the world， large and small， with type restaurant， abound In addition， scientists are still uneasy with the status quo of Japanese lacquer art， developed many vessels of modern life， such as beer wine glass coffee set， etc.And friends who have been to Japan will find that all kinds of exquisite lacquerware can be seen in a supermarket department store in a different grade.So why did the lacquerware be carried forward by the Japanese and even become a symbol of the Japanese nation？ There are several reasons for this.

I think it is precisely because of the inheritance and development of the traditional lacquer ware that the Japanese have done well.Japanese lacquer producers on the relationship between traditional and modern processing has the original opinion， with modern aesthetic idea to refine some of the traditional culture elements are modified and apply， make the traditional craft and the integration of modern aesthetic.Especially in the shape of the up and down， to break the bondage of the original traditional lacquer ware shape， exaggerated deformation， which can meet the application principle， and more in line with the modern aesthetic， make vessels stronger practicability and artistry.For example： the suzuki's work <>， completely broke the previous vessel modelling And beyond the original ideology， of course， in the form of across at the same time， it does not lose the original instinct， there are several openings above the table， can also be used as an illustration of the vessel.The matrix of the body of the work is made from the use of organic glass， and the surface of the body is made from the paint after being mazed.It is the style of production is still in the tradition of active in the household age style， this kind of eclecticism technique completely break the bondage of the traditional As a result， Chinese lacquer to reborn in the modern society， should remain in a state of type show a new look in front of the world.Secondly， on the development model adopts double-track system， there are pure handmade high-end luxury type and mass type of mechanization， no matter what type， was designed on the basis of the aesthetic trend of modern requirements， all strive to close to the market and the public life， so the Japanese lacquer get rapid development， the development system is worthy of our paint arts subject direction of further research.Finally， the support of the government and the investment of education to flourish in Japan for lacquer ware played an indispensable role， in addition to its life， more important still is the protection of lacquer ware culture and value.Especially at the world expo held in 1906， caused the Japanese government and the public attention of the society of industry and commerce， then set off an led by the government， industrial and commercial society seiko club with lacquer art craft rescue and protection movement， purpose is to make the lacquer art to revive.In addition， many universities in Japan have opened lacquered specialties， and have cultivated a large number of skilled and influential lacquers.
