Treasured Time: An Immersive Journey Through Qing Palace Timepieces

2024-07-12

At the 751 D•Park, the exhibition "Treasured Time: An Immersive Journey Through Qing Palace Timepieces" showcases nearly a hundred rare and exquisite timepieces from the 18th to early 20th century, originating from Switzerland, the UK, France, Germany, and more. 

The repair techniques of timepieces, as an intangible cultural heritage, have been maintained and preserved by highly skilled and experienced masters. This has allowed the orderly inheritance and continuation of the craft up to the present day, forming a unique restoration technique that is rare overseas and distinctive within China. During the opening ceremony, Mr. Wang Jin, a representative inheritor of the ancient timepiece restoration technique, demonstrated the restoring process, allowing the audience to experience up close the unique skills and extraordinary charm of this nationally representative intangible cultural heritage project.
