About Xiang embroidery
Xiang embroidery is considered one of the four great
embroidery styles of China, and has been practiced in China for
hundreds of years. The Xiang embroidery style originated in
the Hunan province of China, where examples of embroidery have been
found which date back more than 2,**0 years. Embroidery in
the Hunan province has developed extensively in the intervening
centuries. Xiang embroidery is far more akin to folk art with its
loose threads and rich colors. Xiang embroidery is still
produced today, and is popular throughout China and around the
world.
The history of Xiang embroidery starts in the Chu Kingdom,
around the third century B.C. Excavations of archaeological
sites dating back to this period have discovered examples of
embroidery produced in the Hunan province which use fine
silk and multiple colors. However, the
Xiang embroidery style that is most familiar to modern audiences
developed during the Qing dynasty (********1). Because of its
relatively late introduction. Xiang embroidery embodies many unique
characteristics that mark it a style all on its own.
Xiang embroidery is done on transparent chiffon silk. The
silk threads are dyed and then soaked in water containing pod nuts
- the oil in these nuts tends to make the thread soft and easy to
work with. There are several distinct needling techniques
used, and their lack of precision is by design - the random or
uneven nature of this needling means that colors and textures are
often mixed together with great effect. The most famous
examples of Xiang embroidery use tigers as their subject. Birds,
landscape scenes, and people can also be used as subjects - one of
the characteristics of Xiang embroidery is that animals and people
seem to be alive, thanks to the vibrant colors and often almost
three dimensional effect created by the thick knots and stitching.
Xiang embroidery pieces are often two sided, with different
patterns or images on each side of the transparent
chiffon.
Xiang embroidery has earned a place amongst its fellow styles as
one of four the great Chinese embroidery styles. By using
elements of ancient Hunan embroidery, Xiang embroidery makes
figures and colors come alive with vibrant textures and
craftsmanship. Examples of Xiang embroidery are still popular
today, and can be used practically as clothing, pillow cases, and
sheets, or as art pieces in and of themselves. Indeed, one
can "help feeling somewhat awed in the presence of these wonderful
works of art. It embodies as much the art of painting as that of
embroidery.
