Abstract

Traditional handicrafts are an important component of China's excellent traditional culture and the crystallization of the wisdom of the general public. With the continuous development of modern manufacturing technology and the constant integration and replacement of diverse cultures, the inheritance and development of traditional handicrafts are facing many challenges. The existing legal system in our country has made relevant provisions for the protection of traditional handicrafts, but it is still not comprehensive and systematic enough, and often cannot provide effective legal guidance for solving the problem of infringement of geographical indications of traditional handicrafts. Many traditional handicrafts in our country have also become well-known geographical indication products both domestically and internationally, so strengthening the protection of geographical indications for traditional handicrafts has important practical significance. Longquan celadon has rich cultural connotations and a long history. It is not only a national intangible cultural heritage, but also an important geographical indication product. The use of geographical indication system to protect Longquan celadon and other traditional handicrafts is a practical method that can achieve good protection effects, thus realizing the protection and inheritance of traditional handicrafts. By exploring the protection models of geographical indications abroad and combining them with the current situation of geographical indication protection in China, this paper deeply analyzes the practical problems in geographical indication protection and provides suggestions on how to use geographical indications to protect traditional handicrafts. Specifically, on the one hand, a mixed protection model dominated by specialized laws should be formed, and on the other hand, relevant measures should be taken to protect traditional handicraft geographical indications.
