At present, most of the most influential sculptures in China and the West are made of copper. For example, Rodin's The Thinker, The Bronze Age, and The Statue of Liberty are all made of copper, Hangzhou Stone sculpture The lines are suitable for sculpture because of the texture, plasticity, unlimited specifications, rich color texture and other reasons of the copper material, which is also an effect that jade, wood and stone carvings cannot achieve. Jade carvings can only do very small works because of the material restrictions, high quality Stone sculpture Due to the limitations of wood carving technology, there is no precedent for large-scale outdoor sculptures. The inheritor, whose bronze sculptures opened a new chapter in the 5000 year history of copper.

Wood carving is a kind of sculpture, which is often called "folk craft" in our country. Wood carving can be divided into three categories: three-dimensional round carving, root carving and relief carving. Wood carving is a kind of work separated from carpentry, which is classified as "fine carpentry" in our country. Folk art varieties classified by carving materials. Generally, the tree species with fine and tough texture and not easy to deform are selected, such as nanmu, red sandalwood, camphor wood, cypress, ginkgo, agarwood, mahogany, longan, etc. The tree root carving art in natural form is called "tree root carving". Wood carving has round carving, relief carving, engraving or several techniques. Some are also painted to protect wood and beautify it. Generally speaking, tools for wood carving creation, such as saws, wood files, chisels, carving knives, flat shovels, axes, wood drills, wood hammers, planes, etc., can be used for root carving creation. In addition, you also need basic tools such as scissors (scissors for pruning), knives, brushes, sandpaper (cloth), coarse and fine cloth, cotton yarn, rope, etc. During special processing, such as fire roasting, steaming, and insect prevention, some tools are also needed, which can be used in general families instead of other tools.

It is a three-dimensional plastic art to use certain material materials to produce works of art with solid image. Because the production methods are mainly sculpture and molding, it is called sculpture. According to the production process, sculpture can be divided into two categories: sculpture and sculpture. Subdivision is divided into carving, carving, molding, chiseling, carving, casting and other skills and techniques. According to genre, sculpture can be divided into memorial sculpture, urban garden sculpture, sculpture, tomb sculpture and exhibition sculpture. According to the style, sculptures can also be divided into head portrait, bust portrait, bust portrait, full body portrait, group portrait, etc. According to the technique and form of expression, sculpture can be divided into three categories: round sculpture, relief sculpture and openwork sculpture. Round sculpture, also known as "muddy sculpture", is a three-dimensional sculpture that is not attached to any background and can be viewed from all sides. The round sculpture is characterized by a solid image standing in space. When creating it, one must take into account its sense of volume and weight. When shaping the image, one must also take into account that people watch it from different angles. Relief, also known as "relief", is to carve a convex artistic image on the plane. According to the different degrees of surface relief, relief can be divided into high relief (high and low relief, deep relief) and low relief (low and low relief, shallow relief). The openwork is between the round sculpture and the relief sculpture. On the basis of the relief sculpture, it is made by hollowing out the background, but it does not leave the plane, just like a round sculpture attached to the plane background.

The openwork carving technique is an original carving technique in Putian. There are still many "gold inlaid openwork lanterns" and "embossed flower windows" in the Palace Museum in Beijing, which all support the traditional craft charm of Putian wood carving. From the end of the Ming Dynasty to the beginning of the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, Putian wood carvings were mostly made of longan wood, which was rich in local production. Carved into various military officers, women or gods, antiques, supplemented by old paint painting, make the work more deep color. Zhu Bangshou, Huang Dangui, Chen Xiange and other famous painters, together with Liu Ronglin, formed a round sculpture character style characterized by Pu style military generals. So far, many figures and architectural decoration wood carvings have been left for future generations in Guandi Temple, Yuanxia Village, Jiangkou Town, Jiufeng Village, Wutang Town and other old folk houses, These masterpieces, which combine round, transparent and relief carvings, are treasures of Putian wood carving art.
