These works were very popular at his first one-man exhibition in 1982, where he also displayed practical utensils and ornaments carved from bamboo or sandalwood, inlaid with shells and tiles.
民國七十一年他在台北陶朋舍舉辦第一次個展時，這類作品相當受歡迎。當時他還展出了利用竹節、紫檀、烏心石與不同材料雕刻成的實用器皿與裝飾，有些器物上鑲了貝殼與瓷片。雕刻的形式有平面浮雕、也有平面透雕與立體圖雕；圖案則大多以人與動物為主。
