Pillows are not merely functional items in daily life; they are also expressions of art within everyday existence. An ongoing exhibition in Beijing showcases a collection of pillows crafted from various materials, with unique shapes and exquisite decorations. These pillows, dating back from the Han Dynasty (202 BC-220 AD) to modern times, vividly reflect social customs, fascinating folk traditions, and distinctive aesthetic tastes across different historical periods.
