Ⅰ. 织锦技艺 在中华文明的瑰宝中，织锦技艺以其精湛的织造技术和绚丽的色彩组合，展现了古人对于美的追求与向往。谈及织锦技艺，不得不提及绚烂夺目的云锦。云锦以其织造精细、图案华丽而著称，是中华织锦技艺的杰出代表。
Yunjin is a beautiful brocade(织锦) made in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province. Yun in Chinese means clouds and jin means brocade. The materials used in yunjin are valuable, such as silk, gold, and silver, turning out its high collecting value(收藏价值).
Yunjin, with a history of over 1,600 years, has the best quality among all the brocades in China. It stands for the finest Chinese silk cloth. The brocade comes out from a traditional wooden loom as big as 5.6 metres long, 1.4 metres wide, and 4 metres high. The big loom needs two people to work, one above and one below. The process(过程) is so long and complex that a brocade with a length of 5 to 6 centimetres takes two people all day to make. Moreover, the making of a brocade cannot be replaced by modern machines. Its pictures are large in shape and the use of gold and silver makes them rich and shiny. In ancient times, yunjin served as materials for royal family's clothes and to beautify their palaces. It was also used as gifts for important foreign guests.
With the development(发展) of technology and changes in people's lifestyles, young people have less interest in traditional arts which need a long time of learning and practising. To pass down the skills of making yunjin, the Chinese government(政府) set up Nanjing Yunjin Research Institute in 1957. It has helped spread the culture of brocade and built a cultural bridge between China and the world.
