As we all know, the Song Dynasty is the weakest dynasty in history, compared with the previous very powerful superpowers, its military and territory are very far behind, but it still ruled for a long time, what is the reason for this? Of course, it is the economy, economic development is an indispensable thing for a country, and if you have money, you can also develop the military, but the military cannot be sustained without money.
The economy of the Song Dynasty is the most powerful one in the developed countries in the world, whether it is the development of the domestic economy or diplomatic trade is very open, it can be said that that era is the most comfortable development of the businessmen in an era, the state very much encourages the people to do business themselves, there are many policies to benefit the people, so the Song Dynasty is very few very poor people, the kind of food can not eat very little. A large piece of economic development of the Song Dynasty in terms of maritime trade, their large ships can sail very far, with very good domestic goods to sell abroad, but also bring back to foreign very advanced technology and products can be said to have led to the development of the entire European coastal continent, in so many overseas goods, the most popular is porcelain and silk. This is the most popular among the European people, because our silk is softer and smoother than their hard materials, and the most important thing is that we have very beautiful embroidery and patterns on it. Today we will talk about the textile process of the Song Dynasty.
The textile industry appeared very early, in the Han Dynasty has begun embroidery and weaving and dyeing technology, at that time most of the princes and nobles wore a very sophisticated costume made of hand embroidery, and when the Song Dynasty came, everyone knows that the Song Dynasty craftsmen are very many, so in the old ancestors handed down the craft on the improvement, the production layer out of the more beautiful fabric, and compared to the previous small-scale cloth that can only be used by the nobility, the Song Dynasty was already a national development, It became a very large production line, although the country also allowed the people to contract the silk weaving industry by themselves, but the real good technology and materials were still in the hands of the royal family, and the fabrics and costumes produced by the royal brocade department at that time were sent to trade in addition to the use of the royal and the royal nobles.
During the Song Dynasty, the types of brocade weaving have been very many, whether it is the material or the way and method of brocade weaving are different, the pattern style of weaving is also different, some are made of gold and silver thread, some are embroidered, are different, and whether it is color matching or pattern collocation is very generous and elegant. There is the appearance of the Han Dynasty people's bookish feelings. In addition to these, the Song Dynasty also once made yarn clothing, which has very high requirements for technology, it is precisely because of the prosperity and development of the Song Dynasty, so that people after the use of more skillful use and even improve this aspect of clothing production, so that our current clothes can be such a material choice is very much!
