Intangible Cultural Heritage Silk Velvet Hairpin - Elegant Floral Design

Raw silk is soaked and boiled to achieve a soft yet sturdy texture, ensuring it remains durable and resistant to shedding or fraying.

The silk threads are dyed according to the specific color requirements of the velvet flower designs.

Dozens of vibrant hues are prepared to meet the intricate color palette of the final products.

The dyed silk velvet is draped over bamboo poles and dried under sunlight. During this process, it must be frequently turned and kept taut to ensure even drying and maintain its straightness.

1. Processed silk is crafted into thin silk ribbons.
2. Copper wires are evenly arranged beneath the ribbons.
3. The silk and wires are tightly twisted and bound together to form a durable, structured strand.

Use a heated iron or soldering tool to press cylindrical silk threads into flat strips. These flattened strips are used to craft delicate components such as flower petals, bird wings, tails, and feathers.

Depending on the design requirements of the velvet flower product, scissors are used to meticulously shape the cylindrical threads.

The threads are trimmed into specific forms, including:

Angles: Obtuse angles, acute angles.

Curves: Semicircles, spheres, ellipses.

Use tweezers to assemble precision-cut threads/strips of varying colors and sizes into floral or decorative shapes.

Apply white adhesive (e.g., glue) to attach individual threads/strips and other decorative elements to their designated positions, forming the final product.

Depending on the product’s creative design, assemble complementary accessories such as:Glass frames、Bamboo baskets、Bird nests、Flower pots.Integrate these elements to enhance the final presentation.

Inspect all connection points and verify the structural integrity of the assembled product.

Ensure the overall composition aligns with the intended aesthetic.
