On the eve of the Double Festival, in order to display Gansu specialty products to tourists, Lanzhou Concert Hall Plaza held a local cultural and creative product exhibition.
On the exhibition site, the old Dunhuang pigments with stable properties and not easy to decolor have attracted the attention of past visitors.
According to the person in charge Xu Haidong, the old Dunhuang pigments come from Gansu. The products are developed in cooperation with the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The ore required to make the pigments comes from the vast western land centered on Dunhuang with a radius of one thousand kilometers.
These natural rough stones are made by inheriting ancient methods, using animal glue as a binder, and learning from the world's advanced pigment manufacturing technology to develop Dunhuang old pigment series of natural mineral pigments.
Mainly used in cultural relic restoration, heavy color painting, boneless painting, thangka and oil painting Tempera, etc.
