It is especially known for relief cut into wooden panels for buildings, furniture and screens. The traditional pale finish leaves the natural wood grain visible. <sup>[1][2][6]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Wood:<\/strong> Fine-grained woods such as linden or camphor can carry small details.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Depth:<\/strong> Raised shapes and recessed areas build the scene.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Setting:<\/strong> A panel may form part of a beam, door, partition or screen. <sup>[1][2][3]<\/sup> <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p1\">To see what the carver did, follow the shadows from the highest parts of the image to the wood behind them.<\/p><\/section>\n<figure class=\"tcjdi-infographic\" style=\"width:500px;max-width:100%;margin:24px auto;text-align:center\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Dongyang-wood-grain-shallow-relief-deep-relief-and-openwork.webp\" alt=\"Dongyang wood grain shallow relief deep relief and openwork\" title=\"Dongyang wood grain shallow relief deep relief and openwork\" width=\"1440\" height=\"2560\" style=\"width:500px;max-width:100%;height:auto;margin:0 auto\" \/><figcaption>Dongyang wood grain shallow relief deep relief and openwork<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"p1\">On a carved panel, a near branch can cast a shadow over a distant roof. Both may have been cut from the same piece of wood. The difference in height gives the scene depth while the panel keeps its place in a door or screen.<\/p>\n<h2>Why the Grain Stays Visible<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">The heritage register names linden, camphor and ginkgo among the woods used in Dongyang. On a pale, fine-grained surface, the outlines come largely from how the cut wood catches the light. The grain remains part of the image, including where a cut crosses it. A description of Lu Guangzheng\u2019s workshop notes that a clear varnish can protect the surface while leaving the timber\u2019s color visible. <sup>[1][2][6]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">This appearance is often called white woodcarving (<em>b\u00e1im\u00f9di\u0101o<\/em>, \u767d\u6728\u96d5). The name refers to the character of the surface, which shows the natural timber and grain. An older panel may have darkened with age, and the name alone gives no exact identification of the wood. <sup>[1][2][6]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h2>How Carvers Build Depth on a Panel<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Carving a scene on a panel begins with decisions about the highest forms and the ground behind them. Lu Guangzheng\u2019s workshop account distinguishes design, roughing out and finishing. The roughing establishes the major levels by cutting back the ground and leaving enough wood for the forms in front. Finishing refines the edges and texture of a roof, leaf or fold of clothing. <sup>[1][2][4]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">A shallow relief rises only slightly. A deeper relief uses larger height differences and usually casts deeper shadows. In pierced work, the opening continues through the board and lets light through. A panel can combine more than one treatment, which is common in the wider practice of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/chinese-woodcarving\/\">Chinese woodcarving<\/a>. <sup>[1][2][4]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h2>Where the Carving Sits at Luzhai<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Luzhai complex in Dongyang contains Ming and Qing domestic buildings. Its Suyong Hall is one of the architectural examples recorded in the national woodcarving entry. The separate building heritage record points to carved beams, brackets, doors, windows and partitions throughout the compound. A bracket is read from below, while a door panel can be seen from much nearer. <sup>[1][3]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">At Luzhai, the place of a carving is part of how it works. A beam or bracket can carry a design that stays readable above the viewer. On a partition or window, daylight can also make pierced areas part of the composition. Both belong to the larger arrangement of wood, masonry and decoration in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/chinese-architecture\/\">Chinese architecture<\/a>. <sup>[2][3]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h2>How Contemporary Carvers Use the Tradition<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">By the early twentieth century, Dongyang artisans were also producing carving for sale as portable furnishings and display pieces. The national heritage entry records a workshop established in Hangzhou in 1914. Dongyang woodcarving entered China\u2019s first national intangible cultural heritage list in 2006. The national register records Huang Xiaoming training with Feng Wentu. Huang\u2019s 2017 exhibition at the National Museum of China included standing screens, wall panels and freestanding carvings. <sup>[1][4][5]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The museum describes a camera-frame approach in some of Huang\u2019s works, taking a visual idea from photography into the wooden panel. The background uses a very shallow cut. The central subject projects in deeper relief. This puts the largest differences of light and shadow near the subject. The shallow background still carries information about the setting. <sup>[4]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Huang\u2019s <em>Three Friends<\/em>, also shown in the exhibition, brings a different approach to pine, plum and bamboo. His workshop describes a freestanding yew carving made for tabletop display. Plum sits in front of the pine and bamboo behind it. Openings separate the foliage in some areas, while relief defines forms that still share a surface. This is a case where the composition draws on depth from more than one angle. <sup>[4][7]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h2>FAQs About Dongyang Woodcarving<\/h2>\n<h3>What does white woodcarving mean in Dongyang?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">White woodcarving is a name for the light appearance and visible grain of the natural timber. A transparent finish can preserve that look. <sup>[1][2][6]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h3>Does Dongyang woodcarving only use flat panels?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Dongyang carvers are especially known for relief on panels. They also work in the round and make openwork, furniture components and independent display pieces. <sup>[1][2][4]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h3>How can you distinguish deep relief from openwork?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Look into the darkest part of the design from the side. In relief there is still wood behind the raised form. In openwork you can see through the opening to whatever lies behind the panel. <sup>[1][2]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h2>Sources<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">[1] China Intangible Cultural Heritage Network. <a
