Looks

The lamp of Changxin Palace is gilded throughout, brilliant and gorgeous, although the long years have left a stain of rust on the appearance of the lamp, but it still reflects the superb level of gilding technology in the Han Dynasty. The lamp of Changxin Palace is 48 cm high, and the overall shape is the image of a Han Dynasty palace girl kneeling and holding a lamp. The palace maid holds the lamp in her left hand, her right arm is held high, and the wide sleeves naturally droop, subtly forming the top of the lampshade.

It comes from the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics

On the morning of October 20, 2021, the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics Tinder arrived in Beijing, and the Beijing Winter Olympics Tinder Welcome Ceremony was held in the Olympic Tower. At the welcoming ceremony, the tindering of the tinder lighted from Athens, Greece, was particularly eye-catching. This all-red tinder lamp is full of Hebei elements, because its shape design inspiration comes from the "first lamp in China" - the Western Han Dynasty Changxin Palace lamp.

"Long faith" is an eternal belief, representing people's pursuit and yearning for light and hope. The flying red ribbon surrounds the top of the tinder lamp, visually unified with the "flying" image of the torch, symbolizing the Olympic passion of hard work. The square circle nesting symbolizes the round place of the sky, and the silver metallic luster and the crystal clear glass contrast, expressing the perfect fit between the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation and the Olympic spirit.
