术语“布层”的详细信息

英译术语:

layer of cloth

汉语语境:

大约在春秋时期，漆器产业的工匠们便尝试以粘土塑形，或在木模上脱型，用漆液裱糊各种布料，待其干涸后，“脱壳成型”。经长期的实践与改进后，这种新的胎骨工艺终于在汉代完全成熟，取代了其他器型技术，成为汉代漆器最典型的胎骨工艺。它便是闻名于世的“夹紵”技术。“夹紵”之“夹”，原意有两层意思:一是指布层有多道，二是指布层间“夹”着其它填充物质。从西汉漆器的残片分析来看，两层亚麻布之间夹裹的填充物质，大都是骨粉、瓦灰、木屑、炭粉调入生漆制成。这样做，既可以增加器壁的坚挺程度，也可以防皱防缩，使器物长久保持固定的状态。“紵”泛指各类麻质编织物，这儿特指汉以来使用最多的亚麻布。

英语语境:

Approximately in the Spring and Autumn period, craftsmen in lacquerware industry tried to use clay for moulding, or wood mould for demoulding. They pasted lacquer on all kinds of cloth and unshelled them from the mould after drying up. After long-term practices and improvements, this new technique of making body samples or lacquer fetus finally matured in Han Dynasty, replaced other technologies, and became the most typical technique for making lacquer fetus. This is the world-famous “Jia Zhu” technique. “Jia” has two meanings: it firstly refers to the multiple layers of cloth, and secondly refers to the fillers between layers of cloth. Seen from the fragments of lacquerware of the Western Han Dynasty, the fillers between two layers of cloth are made by pouring the bone powder, tile ash, bits of wood and powdered carbon into raw lacquer. In this way, the wall of lacquerware can be firmed and protected from crinkling and shrinking to maintain a constant state for a long time. “Zhu” refers to all kinds of linen knitted fabrics, and here refers to the most widely used linen since the Han dynasty.
