Bobai Chinese Silvergrass Weaving

Bobai is famously dubbed the "Capital of Chinese Weaving Crafts." In 2014, it saw its bamboo and Chinese silvergrass weaving techniques included in the fifth batch of the intangible cultural heritage list of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.

A standout feature of Bobai"s Chinese Silvergrass weaving is its seamless blend of practicality, visual appeal, and collectability. Bamboo and Chinese silvergrass are processed through steps like scraping, splitting, peeling, core removal, smoking, sun-drying, and pest and moisture prevention. The weaving involves techniques such as crossing, pressing, threading, and winding on custom molds to create various tools and items for daily life. Not only are these products practical, but they are also exquisite works of art.
