July 4th is upon us, so how about taking a glimpse back in time to the origin of fireworks in China. Although fireworks are now mostly used for entertainment and celebratory purposes, this was not always the case. The origin of fireworks goes back over 1,000 years; in fact, long before gunpowder was ever invented.

Like many “inventions,” the first ‘fire cracker’ was discovered by accident when green bamboo was tossed into a fire after dried stalks ran out. The air and sap trapped inside the bamboo segments heated and built up pressure, eventually splitting the bamboo open with a loud裂缝！The noise frightened the people, but they hoped it would terrify evil spirits even more; especially those known asn- 在春天春天出现的精神野兽，吃人类并摧毁作物。据说，鞭炮成功地吓到了，因为这个原因，与庆祝和快乐有关。
历史文件表明爆炸性粉末是发现的，而中国炼金术家努力创造长寿和不朽的灵灵。当竹笋充满这种粉末并加热时，它产生了很大的爆炸。据一名传说称，刘阳，湖南省的僧人，创造了这样一个爆竹，避开了一个邪恶的龙，制服了一种愤怒的灵魂。因此，六阳人民于4月18日庆祝为李天的产品作为鞭炮的创造者。他们甚至在荣誉中竖立了一座寺庙。

Traditionally, fireworks were ignited from the ground or from custom made launchers that could reach several tiers in height. The simplest of these can be found among the antique Chinese fireworks launchers in PRIMITIVE’s collection. In their simplicity lies beauty. Today, these same launchers have been repurposed into candle stands and light sconces.
