Original Chinese Handmade Jing Embroidery Table Cloth
Embroidery is an excellent traditional technology with a long history in China and well known all over the world, always accompanying silk and its development. These works originating from the Forbidden City of China in Beijing are different from the Su embroidery, also shown in Hong Gallery. These are so called Jing embroidery, since they were used only in the Ming/Qing empire. Later, those craftswomen walked out of the forbidden city and passed their Second to None skilles to their disciples. As time went on, many people can see and collect their works at home.
