to the vacuum left by modern society. We see ourselves as a cultural distributor rather than a handicrafts factory.
We insist that every piece of artwork we create has deep roots in traditional culture; reflecting a benevolence and aesthetic feeling that tells a story in addition to being beautiful. Under this principal, we seek to develop an art form whose style and pattern reflect traditional Chinese fine art.
New Oriental advocates craftsmanship- every piece of the artwork we create was made and finished entirely by hand. We humbly follow in the footsteps of the previous generations and believe that the definition of craftsmanship is based on the interaction of material and technique. We also believe that there is a direct relationship between the quality of our art, and the amount of effort we put toward creating it- a Morality and balance exists between the technique of the craft and the peaceful and harmonious relationship the craftsman has to the world. Art is man's study of the natural world, a kind of training of the self.When art is created in this way, one single finite piece of artwork has the ability to reflect and combine all people's experiences and wisdom into a complete whole; stretching the value of the artisan into infinity. We hold this believe for our art work, use the experience of tradition, develop a new concept of craft and accumulate the essence of the self.
