China’s Rich Tradition of Embroidering

This Embroidery is Absolutely Stunning! There are so many more crafts like this hidden in small villages of China and lots of talented craftsmen waiting to be discovered, That is why we spent the past year travelling around China to interview the craftsmen and started this Channel-- SlowMaking. We want to uncover the story of these"ordinary" people behind these "extraordinary" crafts! Welcome to check us out!

China was famous for embroidery and India for its intricate weaves

Peb yog Hmoob. Peb cov pog yeej xaws paj ntaub ib yam los mas. Txawm tias peb tsis muaj ib yam ntawv sau txog peb haiv neeg los peb hab yam tseem yog ib tsev Hmoob xwb. Nyob ntawm daim paj ntaub xwb. Yus paub nyeem daim ntaub thiab tes ris tsho ces yus paub kawg mas. 😂

Beautiful embroidery. They are Hmong but they can’t speak Hmong, what a shame. We’ll never understand them unless we speak Mandarin.

I guess im the only guizhou person here XD

Beautiful video

BEAUTIFUL

That regional accent though

Looks awesome

Wish I could buy embroidered clothes, rather not buy online

The title should not be "China's". It's the Miao's. They also live in Vietnam and Laos. And yes, their embroidery skills are extremely good

This is so beautiful! I would love to get something made from them!

Oh wow I actually understood a couple of words she said :0

Amazing. India also had a rich tradition of fabric dying which the western world destroyed and recreated as a chemical industry.

My god, those jackets are astonishingly beautiful. Respect.

Waw awesome

I would have guessed those pieces were from central america, they remind me of Peruvian art. I've never seen anything like this style come from china.

Yeah this where Gucci got their last season’s inspiration people,

it doesn't look confortable. 👘

The dialect they speak sounds like a mix of Mandarin and Cantonese

What beautiful work! I was wondering if it would be possible to buy one but since it takes 6 years to complete I think not, oh well I guess I can always admire it from afar😁❤️

I hope people here notice the difference between Han and Miao culture.

Hello

Love this. These garments are so beautiful!

Beautiful..

We have in Bangladesh called নকশী কাঁথা। it's kind of like this but it's not done in the grand scale these people do.

Much better than off white . Respect !💪

Imagine the price, you can only find one of each design in this world. More precious than limited edition brand I guess.

6 years for a shirt!? Wow such patience

Tradition in america is to win fortnite

The accent? Language? is so interesting

Meow


Sorry I can’t help
Great video

Wow amazing😍 Nd we Americans what do we do nothing smh 🤦🏻‍♀️

What chinese is she speaking?

This is basically Weird but True

Wow, every single jacket they were wearing belongs in the Louvre. That's amazing.

While the term "Miao" is much more specific now than is used to be, there is no one language for the Miao people in China. More commonly known as Hmong in the west, all the Miao people are grouped together since they speak a Hmongic language.

Patience will get you far.

Wow that's amazing, just by doing by hand takes alot of time

Wonderful, hope they keep this tradition alive for many future generations to come

Have Miao separated from Hmong? Miao is what the Chinese called us but these people seem a bit different from Hmong. The embroidery style seems different too.

Awesome!

Wow

Happy friday the 13th

Ooh! I want to do that!

I beat Justin Y....

That's so cool. Writing is overrated even though I'm doing it right now. The irony.

The next level of knitting, also I wonder if their museums are just Clothes with Embroidering..

Cool
