Linchuan bamboo weaving technique (the third batch of provincial level) Linchuan bamboo weaving technique is a folk handicraft derived from folk bamboo weaving technique. It integrates traditional bamboo weaving technique and arts and crafts. The production process is complex and the weaving technology is high. Because the pictures are mostly auspicious words or patterns, they are deeply loved by the masses; and the bamboo weaving works use unique bamboo weaving tools as carriers, and weave words and pictures with unique techniques. They are very precious arts and crafts. The pictures of Linchuan bamboo weaving techniques are based on auspicious words (such as; Fu, Lu, Shou, Xi, etc.) and legends (such as Peach Garden Oath, Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, Laozi Playing Chess, Pan Tao Offering Longevity, etc.). The color tone is based on the yellow of bamboo strips, or it is matched with red to express auspiciousness and festivity, or with black to express simplicity and solemnity. The fonts are well-proportioned, thick and thin, and the characters are lifelike and vivid. There is no special written record of Linchuan bamboo weaving skills in history. Because bamboo products have a limited shelf life and are easy to rot and destroy, it is difficult to study the specific time of their production. In the late Qing Dynasty, Li Bingfang, a Linchuan native, asked someone to weave "Laozi's chess picture" as a study mural, and also wove a bamboo mat with "Qilin Sending a Child"; in Zhangjiazhou, Huqiao Village, Linchuan, there are bamboo weaving paintings, couplets and banners in the home of Huang Shizhi, a juren in the Qing Dynasty. Linchuan bamboo weaving skills adopt the "raindrops" painting method on the warp and weft of bamboo to create. ("Raindrops" painting is named because there are sparse warp colors on the picture and they look like raindrops.) The traditional technique is to take raindrops at intervals of four, six, or eight points, that is, to take raindrops at intervals of four, six, or eight warp strips to form a picture. In order to portray the characters in detail, very high requirements are placed on the thickness of the bamboo strips. The thin bamboo strips are even as thin as hair, so that the subtle details of the picture can be delicately expressed, appearing exquisite and delicate.
