It began to come out in the Yin Shang era, more than 1200 years ago. In the Song Dynasty, it was famous for weaving dragon lanterns, lanterns and lanterns for the Lantern Festival, and in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Dongyang bamboo weaving already had excellent skills and unique styles. According to Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, "the pith and bamboo are soft and can be used as fine gabion, and used to be used as tribute." It can be seen that before the Qing Dynasty, Dongyang bamboo weaving was chosen as a tribute and was famous all over the world. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, Dongyang bamboo weaving entered its heyday, and in 2008, it was selected as one of the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage extended project list.
