Zigong lanterns are traditional lantern crafts from Zigong, Sichuan, China, and part of China's intangible cultural heritage. Known for their unique craftsmanship and vibrant colors, these lanterns are made from bamboo, paper, silk, and cloth. They feature lifelike designs of characters, animals, flowers, and more, showcasing rich folk culture. The production involves material selection, design, cutting, pasting, painting, and assembly. Painting is crucial as it defines the lantern’s color and artistic value. Zigong lanterns can be customized in shape, size, and color, making them ideal for theme parks, festivals, commercial events, and more. Contact us to customize your lanterns.

5 Coloring: Apply colored silk cloth to lantern surfaces based on the artist’s color instructions.
6 Art Finishing: Use painting or spraying to finalize the look in line with the design.
