Porcelain embryo bamboo weaving is a special handicraft made of bamboo wire outside crystal porcelain. It is the main producing area of Chengdu, located in pingle town, a famous historical and cultural town under the jurisdiction of Chengdu. Pingle ancient town has a history of more than 2,000 years, and is known as the first post station of the Southern Silk Road in history. Rich in products and outstanding in people, it is an important traffic artery and cultural corridor in southwest Sichuan. Geographically, pingle town is surrounded by mountains and lush mountains, naturally forming a flat and beautiful small green basin. In particular, the local bamboo sea with an area of 45,000 mu provides a unique condition for making porcelain fetal bamboo weaving.

Sichuan is known as the "hometown of bamboo", so as early as the Han Dynasty, people began to make all kinds of production and daily necessities with bamboo, and the relationship between bamboo and Sichuanese has been very close. Pingle town porcelain tire bamboo weaving was quite famous in Qing Dynasty, and the local products of "bamboo silk buckle porcelain" were exported to Bashu area and all over the country.

The main technological process of bamboo weaving with porcelain embryo is: firstly, excellent Jingdezhen white porcelain is selected as embryo, and then bamboo silk is woven and wrapped close to the porcelain surface, making it a unique handicraft. Porcelain fetal bamboo weaving pays more attention to the selection of kind bamboo. Generally, two to three years' smooth and spotless superior kind bamboo is selected, the green skin outside the bamboo is scraped off, cut open with a knife, made into bamboo slices, and then dried. Finally, the dried bamboo chips are processed into uniform bamboo filaments by hand or machine, and dyed into the required color, and the raw materials for porcelain embryo bamboo weaving are ready. Bamboo woven with Sichuan Cizhu has the characteristics of softness, smoothness, tenacity and durability, and is deeply loved by consumers at home and abroad.

When making porcelain embryo bamboo weaving crafts, artists embrace the white and smooth Jingdezhen porcelain and carefully weave it layer by layer with colorful bamboo filaments. Long bamboo filaments, like wool, appear smooth and submissive between the artist's fingers. When they are woven according to a series of procedures, a beautiful bamboo weaving handicraft is completed. In the weaving process of Pingle porcelain tire bamboo weaving, due to the exquisite technology, the interface between bamboo filaments can not be seen from the outside, so many consumers think that Pingle porcelain tire bamboo weaving is completed by a particularly long bamboo filament at one time, which highlights the superb and mature technology.

In 1970s, Pingle porcelain embryo bamboo weaving had a technological revolution and leap. At that time, 73-year-old Master Lin was the technical backbone of Chengdu Bamboo Weaving Factory, and he came to Pingle to buy bamboo. He was deeply moved to see that many local artists were engaged in the production of porcelain embryo bamboo weaving, so he passed on his life skills to an artist named Li Wandong. Later, Li Wandong took many apprentices, so the porcelain embryo bamboo weaving technology was in full swing in the ancient town.

At present, the areas where Pingle Ancient Town is engaged in the production of porcelain embryo bamboo weaving technology are mainly concentrated in Lugou Village and Jinhe Village in Le Tong Village, pingle town. In the 1980s, there were more than 10 manufacturers in Pingle, and there were several in Guzhen Old Street alone, such as Hongxing, Wanjia and Jiangxi. Among them, the largest Wanjia bamboo weaving factory has 300 to 400 skilled workers, forming the peak of local bamboo weaving technology.

Pingle town porcelain embryo bamboo weaving has always been known as "the flower of oriental art", which concentrates the advantages of China porcelain and traditional bamboo weaving technology, making this product with oriental characteristics. In particular, the wine vessels, tea sets, vases and school stationery in porcelain-fetal bamboo weaving are full of elegant and fresh oriental temperament and culture, which are favored by overseas markets.

In 2004, pingle town was named as a beautiful town in China by the State Environmental Protection Administration, and in 2005, it was named as a famous historical and cultural town in China by the Ministry of Construction and the Cultural Relics Bureau. It has rich tourism resources and popularity, which also provides favorable conditions for the development of porcelain fetal bamboo weaving. As a national folk skill with the characteristics of western Sichuan culture, Pingle porcelain embryo bamboo weaving attaches importance to technological innovation, such as more exquisite and rich bamboo weaving patterns, bringing together landscapes, figures, flowers and birds, etc. , so that each piece of porcelain embryo bamboo weaving is like a landscape painting with deep artistic conception; On the other hand, it also attaches importance to the collation and excavation of traditional skills. I believe that through people's efforts, Pingle porcelain embryo bamboo weaving technology, an intangible cultural heritage project, can be deeply rooted in people's hearts and carried forward.
