Chinese fancy knots, also called Chinese knots, refer to the traditional decorative knots in Chinese culture. They began as a form of folk art in the Tang and Song Dynasties in China, and became popular in the Ming Dynasty. Long ago, they found their way to Japan and other neighbouring countries, and were well received there. Now they are taken as one of the symbols of Chinese culture.
As for the name itself, it is meaningful. The Chinese character for "knot", jie, means "connection" or "combination". It reminds people of some cultural concepts like marriage, brotherhood, friendship, unity and reunion(团圆). Meanwhile, the pronunciation of the Chinese character jie is very close to that of ji which means "good luck". As a result, Chinese knots perfectly serve as a way to express people's strong wishes for good things like joy, love and good luck. Besides, the knots, widely existing in the everyday life of the Chinese, come in various(各种各样的) sizes. Small ones are joined to jewellery, clothes, gift-wrapping and furniture to attract people's attention, and large ones are applied(应用) like fine paintings or photographs to decorate a living room or study. Whether large or small, there are over a dozen basic knot patterns(样式), named according to their shapes, usages or origins. For example, Double Coin Knots are called Shuangqian Jie because they are in the shape of two ancient Chinese coins, meaning "good things coming in pairs". However, almost all the main styles of Chinese fancy knots are made up of two very similar parts, and the patterns on the front and the back sides are also similar in every detail.
In addition to their varied sizes and patterns, Chinese knots are famous for their bright colours. Each of the Chinese knots is made of only one string of cotton, silk, gold or silver. But the colours of the strings are rich and have various traditional cultural meanings. Among the most commonly used base colours, red symbolises good luck and happiness, green means health and harmony, and yellow, which was once known as the emperor's colour, may represent wealth and honour.
In brief, the famous Chinese fancy knots fully show the depth of Chinese culture. These brightly coloured knots of various patterns, with their endless chains of knots, symbolise that life on the Earth will continue forever.
