Marble Sculpturing in Non Nước
Mr. Huỳnh Bá Quát played a pivotal role in introducing stone carving from Thanh Hóa to Non Nước. The villagers commemorate both the village festival and the anniversary of their ancestors' deaths on the sixteenth day of the third lunar month each year. For their part, the stone masons celebrate the arrival of spring with an ancestral ceremony on January 6. Stone carvers pass on their craft from father to son. Because the method of teaching the job is to teach the job by hand, the team of workers is divided into three basic levels: apprentices, secondảy workers, and master workers. Rough stone/marble miners are called “Civil Mandarin”. The worker who creates the raw product is called "Military Mandarin". Craft tools used in stone sculpture include sledgehammers, crowbars; the soar, the touch; nasal hooves; tarpaulin; nose tick; corn nose; Measure; saws sawing stones and saws cutting rings; drill; and grater. The process of developing a product involves mining and choosing raw stone, making blanks (figuring out the base, making drawings and prints, chiseling blanks, forming products), engraving patterns, embellishing forms, grinding and polishing products. To achieve a stunning color, the laborer needs to apply food coloring to the stone along with bits of green tea, brown shoe polish, and indigo. Based on usage, products include products serving daily needs (flower vases, column bases, teapots) and products serving spiritual needs (feng shui objects, statues, portraits, mausoleums, tombs).

Dancheongjang (Ornamental Painting)
National Intangible Cultural Heritage, Republic of Korea Dancheong refers to Korean traditional decorative coloring of blue, red, yellow, white, and black made on wooden buildings and structures like royal palaces or temples for the purpose of style, or to a painter specializing in the skill. A Buddhist monk with such a skill is called hwaseung. Dancheong is found in tombs dating from the Three Kingdoms Period (circa 57 BC – 668 AD). The skill developed with the development of Buddhism. Let us see how the dancheong work is accomplished. First of all, the space where dancheong is to be done is cleaned. Water boiled with a small amount of glue is applied to the surface of the space five times. Bluish green soil mixed with water is then applied to the surface. A sheet of paper with the original drawing of a pattern is put on the space and the powder pouch is put lightly on the drawing sheet. The process causes powder to attach to the space through awl-made holes in the drawing sheet, thus forming a pattern. Mineral pigments in blue, red, yellow, white, and black are applied to the pattern thus formed on the space. Dancheong helps preserve the wood and make the building look sacred and dignified. The practice was once in vogue also in China and Japan, but has been handed down to the present day only in Korea.
