Abstract

The Southern ivory carving is a folk carving art and craft represented by the Guangzhou area of China, which began in the Qin and Han dynasties and flourished during the Ming and Qing dynasties. The Southern ivory carving skill is exquisite and famous for its hollowed and pierced carving skills. With the banning of ivory carving materials, it has gradually declined. It was included in China’s National Intangible Cultural Heritage List in 2006, emphasizing the preservation of exquisite skills and the live transmission. The study analyzes the three levels of the Southern ivory carving Culture, Outer level, Middle level, and Inner level, form a design model that corresponds to the design of cultural products with a three levels cultural transformation of appearance, function, and meaning, combining modern digital technology and design to verify the design model with case design, and analyze the inheritance model of the Southern ivory carving culture and skills in the process of modern life. Make the communication and design of intangible cultural heritage full of vitality.
