銅壁畫又叫銅(tong)浮雕(diao)(diao)（又叫鏨銅(tong)或(huo)敲銅(tong)），是(shi)(shi)利用銅(tong)材料的(de)(de)(de)延展性興起來(lai)得鏨刻(ke)(ke)工(gong)(gong)(gong)藝，是(shi)(shi)我國(guo)傳(chuan)統手工(gong)(gong)(gong)藝百花中的(de)(de)(de)一(yi)枝奇葩。之中技術據(ju)今已(yi)有(you)幾千(qian)年的(de)(de)(de)歷史。 鍛銅(tong)工(gong)(gong)(gong)藝品(pin)的(de)(de)(de)造型，主要為平(ping)面的(de)(de)(de)片(pian)活(huo)，片(pian)活(huo)是(shi)(shi)平(ping)裝在某些器(qi)物(wu)上或(huo)懸掛起來(lai)供人欣賞。鏨刻(ke)(ke)工(gong)(gong)(gong)藝的(de)(de)(de)操作，是(shi)(shi)在設計好(hao)器(qi)行或(huo)圖案后，按(an)照一(yi)定(ding)的(de)(de)(de)工(gong)(gong)(gong)藝流程，以特制的(de)(de)(de)工(gong)(gong)(gong)具和特定(ding)的(de)(de)(de)技法，在金屬板(ban)上加工(gong)(gong)(gong)出(chu)千(qian)變萬化(hua)的(de)(de)(de)浮雕(diao)(diao)狀圖案。完成一(yi)件(jian)精美(mei)的(de)(de)(de)鏨刻(ke)(ke)工(gong)(gong)(gong)藝品(pin)需要十多道工(gong)(gong)(gong)藝流程，加上技術工(gong)(gong)(gong)人的(de)(de)(de)格調創造，匠(jiang)心獨運地打造出(chu)個性化(hua)，現代化(hua)的(de)(de)(de)雕(diao)(diao)塑作品(pin)。 　

      鍛(duan)(duan)銅(tong)(tong)是一(yi)(yi)種區別于鑄銅(tong)(tong)的(de)工(gong)(gong)藝(yi)(yi)，是在銅(tong)(tong)板上進行創作，利(li)用(yong)銅(tong)(tong)板加(jia)熱后質地(di)變軟，錘打后又恢(hui)復堅(jian)硬的(de)特性，重復這(zhe)一(yi)(yi)過程，最終(zhong)制作出(chu)藝(yi)(yi)術作品或其它生活、工(gong)(gong)業(ye)用(yong)品。隨著人民(min)生活水平和(he)審美情趣的(de)提升，鍛(duan)(duan)銅(tong)(tong)這(zhe)一(yi)(yi)傳(chuan)統(tong)工(gong)(gong)藝(yi)(yi)尤其在工(gong)(gong)藝(yi)(yi)美術領域(yu)受到越來越多設計師和(he)大眾的(de)喜(xi)愛。 　

      火、錘子和鏨子是(shi)鍛(duan)(duan)銅(tong)(tong)的(de)三個重要元素。小型(xing)鍛(duan)(duan)銅(tong)(tong)工藝作品或大(da)型(xing)浮雕局部加(jia)工可(ke)以采(cai)取(qu)氧氣加(jia)乙炔產生(sheng)的(de)高溫加(jia)熱(re)，大(da)型(xing)作品就(jiu)需要生(sheng)爐火鼓(gu)風加(jia)熱(re)。加(jia)熱(re)這一環節相對(dui)容易。加(jia)熱(re)后的(de)銅(tong)(tong)板要用皮錘敲(qiao)打平整。
