"Origin"
Tian-tsui originated in the Han Dynasty, in the Qing Dynasty Kangxi, Yongzheng, Qianlong period reached the peak (Ding page), much loved by the palace ladies. Diancui is a traditional Chinese jewelry making auxiliary craft, which has been spread for thousands of years.
This craft is based on kingfisher feathers, hence the name. The raw materials of Dot Cui are taken from the royal blue feathers of each bird's wing tip and tail, which are made of metal as the base without patterns, and then the bright blue feathers of the selected kingfisher are trimmed and shaped,
and carefully inlaid on the table to make various jewelry objects.Each bead made by this process is considered to be the top luxury, and it also indicates the demise of hundreds of kingfishers.

"Dilemma and innovation"
Kingfisher is currently a national second-class protected animal in China, is it to protect animals, or to inherit culture, how to solve the dilemma of the emerald intangible cultural heritage?
A clever craftsman always has a solution. The essence of dot Cui lies in "dot" rather than "Cui", dyed goose feathers, cultured blue peacocks, ribbons, etc., can perfectly replace the feather, and can also be lifelike. The non-genetic inheritance is the craft, not the material.
Moreover, intangible cultural heritage also needs to innovate with the development of The Times, so as to burst into vitality and get better inheritance.
“Inheritance and innovation”
With the gradual improvement of people's sense of identity for traditional culture in recent years, Diancui's aesthetic has once again begun to occupy everyone's heart with its unique charm, although the traditional Diancui craft will no longer be produced,
but the combination of modern craft Diancui artworks and daily necessities has gradually become a way of cultural inheritance. With the development of The Times, the innovation of technology and craft, various kinds of dot Cui imitation crafts have appeared one after another,
and other art forms coexist, and have been preserved in a way that is acceptable to modern times.
「起源」
点翠起源于汉代，在清代康熙，雍正，乾隆时期达到了（丁页）峰，备受宫廷娘娘们喜爱。点翠是一种中国传统的首饰制作辅助工艺，已经流传千年。此工艺以翠鸟之羽为缀，故而得名。
点翠的原料取自每只翠鸟翅尖与鸟尾的宝蓝色羽毛，以金属制为不用图案的底座，再把甄选之后的翠鸟亮丽的蓝色羽毛，修剪成型，仔细地镶嵌在座上，以制成各种首饰器物。此工艺制作的每一根珠钗都算得上是顶奢，也同样预示着上百只翠鸟的消亡。
通过选翠、排翠、粘贴等步骤将翠鸟羽毛粘贴到制作好的金银底座上，经过匠人们的精湛技法结合翠鸟羽毛的流光溢彩，一件件精绝伦的传世艺术品就此诞生。
「困境与革新」
翠鸟目前已经是中国国家二级保护动物，是保护动物，还是传承文化，点翠非遗的困境如何能解？聪明的匠人总有解决办法。
点翠的精髓在于“点”而非“翠”，染色鹅毛、养殖的蓝孔雀、缎带等，都可以完美替代翠羽，同样能做到栩栩如生。非遗传承传承的是手艺，而不是局限于材料。再者，非遗也需要随着时代发展进行创新，如此才能迸发活力，得到更好的传承。
「传承创新」
随着近年来人们对于传统文化认同感的逐步提升，点翠的审美凭借独特的魅力又一次开始占据大家的内心，虽然传统的点翠工艺不会再制作，但结合现代工艺的点翠艺术品和生活用品开始逐渐成为文化传承的一种方式。
随着时代的发展，技术与工艺的革新，各式的点翠仿制工艺品相继出现，和其他艺术形式共生，以现代所能接纳的方式留存了下来。
