What do you mean by four phoenixes and one phoenix in the old quilt?
In the traditional wedding custom in China, the bride wears a rockhopper and a wedding dress with a phoenix pattern, so that the newlyweds can unite and love each other. Later, among the people, Phoenix means to harvest beautiful love. For example, the lovers who are going to get married are engaged, and some men will give the woman a phoenix-shaped jade ornament to express their love for her, hoping that both sides can live happily.
For example, the quilt cover of Sifengjin in Zhuang nationality is woven into an irregular pattern of alternating large hexagon and small diamond with blue thread as warp and yellow, green and white thread as weft. In the big hexagon, four flying phoenixes surround the octagonal Yun Leiwen as the main decoration, and then a diamond composed of white circles is dotted around it. Therefore, this kind of brocade is called "Four Phoenix Brocade". The whole Zhuang brocade is simple in color and ingenious in composition, showing gorgeous elegance and simplicity. "Ten Zhuang brocade and nine phoenixes are like phoenixes coming out of brocade", and the phoenix pattern is the most common in Zhuang brocade, because Zhuang people love it and regard it as a symbol of good luck. Therefore, weaving the phoenix into the brocade reflects people's yearning for a happy life.
Traditional patterns have profound meanings and carry blessings.
