Abstract: Buddhism has a history of thousands of years in China, and its emergence has influenced various aspects of Chinese society, including politics, history, art, and education. Buddhist decorations have evolved alongside the spread of Buddhism. However, Indian Buddhist decorative arts differ significantly from Chinese artistic conventions and aesthetic preferences. Therefore, during different periods, Chinese artisans have integrated traditional Chinese imagery and aesthetics to create unique Chinese Buddhist styles. Over time, Buddhist patterns have evolved, eventually becoming a part of traditional Chinese decorative motifs and blending with modern design, reflecting contemporary and artistic sensibilities.
