@craftheritage: Suzhou Embroidery (Su Xiu) is one of China’s Four Great Embroideries and a national intangible cultural heritage, representing the highest aesthetic and craftsmanship level of traditional Chinese silk embroidery art. Originating and prospering in the Jiangnan region, it has enjoyed a worldwide reputation for thousands of years. The whole production process inherits ancient traditional silk-making and embroidery techniques. From cocoon boiling, silk reeling and gum removing, to professional dyeing, precise thread splitting and fine hand stitching, every step demands rigorous manual control. Artisans split silk into extremely fine filaments and apply layered stitching skills to simulate natural light, shadow and texture. Unique crafts such as double-sided embroidery and realistic embroidery enable the works to present vivid, three-dimensional and ultra-fine visual effects. Featuring neat stitches, elegant colors, delicate texture and lifelike forms, Suzhou embroidery embodies the exquisite ingenuity and subtle aesthetic pursuit of Jiangnan craftsmen. It perfectly integrates traditional painting art and handmade embroidery craftsmanship. As a treasure of oriental folk art, it carries forward the profound heritage of Chinese silk culture and classical aesthetic philosophy, showcasing the timeless charm of traditional Chinese intangible craftsmanship. #handmade #handwork #craft #ancientchina #crafttok

Myra Henry :

It takes approximately 2,000 to 3,000 silkworms to produce just one pound of silk. Globally, between 420 billion and 2 trillion silkworms are killed annually.
