Xiashi lanterns utilize eight major techniques: pinning, bending, knotting, tying, carving, pasting, mounting, and painting. They are celebrated for their delicate beauty and, when electrified, emit light beautifully and transparently. During the Southern Song Dynasty, they were listed as tribute and hung in front of the Donghua Gate in Lin'an city. Each lantern carries auspicious meanings, and the intricate craftsmanship is exceptionally detailed.
