It is one of the most renowned traditional  folk arts originated in China and has over 2000 years long history.

The stitching process begins with stretching a piece of silk tightly over a wooden stretcher. A design is sketched on the silk by drawing simple outlines, then the artist uses fine needle and silk threads to bring the image to life. One piece of silk thread can be divided into 16 fine strands.

The fineness of silk, the size of image and the layers of silk threads together determine the value of the art. A small piece of art usually takes one artist a few days to finish while the time to complete a larger top quality piece can take a few years.
