Thanks to Lukang's early prosperity, which brought many arts and crafts masters from Zhangzhou and Quanzhou in mainland China to teach in Taiwan, Lukang has always been famous throughout the island for its artisanship. In early days, when someone's daughter was getting married, there was no more demonstrative gift than a complete set of traditional Lukang furniture inlaid with precious metals and shells.
拜當年港埠繁榮、漳泉等「唐山師傅」紛紛來此授藝之賜，鹿港的工藝向來聞名全省，早年誰家嫁女兒，若能以一套鹿港傳統式嵌金鑲貝的家具作陪嫁，就是莫大的風光。
