The Spring Festival is approaching, and the digital headquarters of the green embroidery industry in Haidong City, Qinghai Province, is busy. The embroidery ladies not only have to embroider conventional green embroidery works, but also complete customer-customized pattern works, and at the same time carry out online live broadcasts of the Year of the Tiger, displaying hand-sewn tiger head hats, sachets and other green embroidery works with tiger elements and sorting out and shipping.
Su Xiaoli, president of the Qinghai Embroidery Industry Association, said that the green embroidery works of the tiger element include the embroidery methods of various ethnic groups in Qinghai, which are very popular with everyone because of their bright colors and unique stitching methods. At present, There are nearly 300,000 seasonal embroidery girls in Qinghai, with total sales of 125 million yuan in 2021.
It is understood that the long-established green embroidery is a general term for handicrafts such as plate embroidery, Tibetan embroidery, leather embroidery, and Salar embroidery, among which, Turkish plate embroidery, Huangzhongdui embroidery, Guinan Tibetan embroidery, Hehuang embroidery, Mongolian embroidery, etc. have been successively included in the representative list of national and provincial intangible cultural heritage, which is a unique cultural symbol of Qinghai.
