It reacts and collides with different chemical substances and may form different colors, which is precisely its charm. A piece of Bronze, after being tempered by copper craftsmen, has become a rare and exquisite copper ware, which contains the inheritance of the skills of the ancients for thousands of years. With the ingenuity of the craftsman, the thick hands, the texture of the years, and the mark of hand-beating, these big and small hammers interpret the soul of hand-made. Therefore, in addition to the traditional casting processes such as burning molds, Wax molds, and double molds, bronze ware can also be hammered by hand. This type of bronze ware is also called "hammered bronze ware". Yuchuantang's works are all handmade. It has very few craftsmen, only 21 people, so it cannot be mass-produced. Each piece is carefully crafted, and because of this, this also reflects its Collection value.
