The media center for the third Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation recently opened its doors to welcome journalists from around the world. An interactive living heritage experience area has been established at the media center, featuring cultural exhibitions that have deeply impressed media representatives keen to experience the unique charm of traditional Chinese culture.

Among them, cloisonne, as a significant intangible cultural heritage, has garnered widespread attention.

Cloisonne craftsmanship originated in the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368) but reached its peak during the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties. With a history spanning over 600 years, cloisonne has gained international acclaim due to its unique style and exquisite craftsmanship.

The design of cloisonne draws inspiration from ancient ceramics and bronze artifacts, emphasizing classic floral patterns and ancient bronze decorations. The glaze primarily features peacock blue and jewel blue, with additional colors such as red, white, green, and yellow, resulting in a rich and vibrant palette.
