What is Xiang embroidery?

Hello, dear, I'm glad to answer your question.

Xiang embroidery is a specialty of Changsha City, Hunan Province, and it is the general name of Xiang embroidery products with distinctive cultural characteristics of Hunan and Chu. It originated from Hunan folk embroidery, absorbed the advantages of Suzhou embroidery and Guangdong embroidery, and developed for more than two thousand years. Xiang embroidery is characterized by rich colors and picturesque embroidery, as well as folk sayings in Su Mao and Hu Xiang. Xiang embroidery is vivid in style, rich in colors, very particular about shade of yin and yang, changeable in stitches and meticulous in dividing lines. Embroiderers pay attention to "embroidery can produce fragrance, embroidered birds can smell, embroidered tigers can run, and embroidered people can express their emotions". Xiang embroidery has participated in many international expositions held in Japan, Panama, the United States and other places, and won many awards, enjoying a high reputation in the international market. Finally, I hope my answer is helpful to you. Looking forward to your attention, like or comment in the comment area. Thank you!
