As the lacquer species of the most distinctive Qing lacquer features, Fuzhou bodiless lacquer is dubbed as one of the "Three Chinese Handicraft Treasures".

The process involved in the making of bodiless lacquer is very complicated.

Paint lacquer successively on the surface for two times, let the product dry in the shade, remove its inner body, and a primitive product will come into being. Next, dozens of working procedures include filling in the dust, lacquering, polishing, and drying in the shade would be processed until semi-finished product comes out. Finally, colored lacquer and other ornaments will be added, and the bodiless lacquer is at last finished.
