This book presents an exquisite compilation of over one thousand Chinese traditional designs found in weaving and embroidery. Know as zhiwen or wen in ancient China, these traditional Chinese weaving and embroidery patterns are the products of brilliant artistic skills that have been passed down from one generation to the next. Available in a beautiful boxed set, the album presents a wide and comprehensive range of classical patterns that include: dragon, phoenix, birds, auspicious animals, floral designs, insect and fish, figures, religious, and allegorical motifs.
