曲阳石雕的历史可追溯到汉朝。相传在西汉时期，刘秀被王莽追杀到曲阳县王台北村南的山上，躲藏在草丛里。王莽放火烧山，想把刘秀烧死。刘秀的狗把周围的草弄湿了，制止了烈火的蔓延，从而使刘秀得救，但狗却累死了。后来刘秀打败了王莽，找了当地石雕艺人，为狗建塔，以表昔日救命之恩。到了唐、宋时期，曲阳石雕逐渐发展，及至清朝，就有了“天下咸称泥杆 保定古筝 塑料增韧剂 拱形护坡模具 保定空调维修  托辊生产线具曲阳石雕”的盛名。在清朝末年巴拿马举行的世界石雕艺术赛会上，曲阳石雕曾获得世界第二名。曲阳石雕有秀美雅致的效果，栩栩如生的飞禽走兽，以及神话故事，历史故事，名胜古迹，古今人物等上百种传统作品。河北省曲阳县是汉白玉雕刻艺术的故乡。曲阳大理石储量大，质地洁白晶莹、经久耐磨，是石雕的优质原料。
The history of Quyang stone carving can be traced back to the Han Dynasty. It is said that in the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu was chased by Wang Mang to the south of Wangtai North Village in Quyang County and hid in the grass. Wang Mang set fire to Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu's dog wetted the grass around him, stopping the spread of the fire, so that Liu Xiu was saved, but the dog was tired to death. Later, Liu Xiu defeated Wang Mang and found a local stone carving artist to build a pagoda for the dog to show his gratitude for saving lives in the past. In the Tang and Song Dynasties, Quyang stone carving gradually developed, and in the Qing Dynasty, it was known as "Quyang stone carving in the world". At the world stone carving art competition held in Panama at the end of the Qing Dynasty, Quyang stone carving once won the second place in the world. Quyang stone carvings have beautiful and elegant effects, lifelike birds and animals, as well as hundreds of traditional works such as myths, historical stories, places of interest, ancient and modern figures. Quyang County of Hebei Province is the hometown of white jade carving art. Quyang marble reserves a large amount, white and crystal clear texture, durable and wear-resistant, is a high-quality raw material for stone carving.
