The process was really amazing and a miracle.

The upper worker keyed on the “keyboard” while the lower one followed the “screen” to flower it. Let’s describe it in this way: the Jacquard weaving method was the software while the dermatoglyphic patterns were the programs written by the ancient method of rope hitching. Because of the complicated dermatoglyphic patterns, a sample picture in 1/3 meter was needed while weaving 1 inch of the brocade.

Jacquard weaving was another specialty of this craftsmanship. This unique craftsmanship still could not be replaced by any modern texture technology or machine. This craftsmanship had lots of advantages: One weft would be completed by several times of flowering so that there was no colorway restriction the same texture could be designed into different colors to make the brocade look elegant and harmonious. Here went the old saying: “one inch of brocade equal to one inch of gold”. The process was so complicated that 5~6 cm brocade took two persons the whole day to work. Wefts were alternately weaved to meet the requirement of flexible colorway. The upper part was used for lifting the warps while the lower part was used for weaving the weft.

The design of the looms was very scientific and rational. The wooden looms used were 5.6 meters long, 1.4 meters wide, and 4 meters in height. “Transfixing warps and severing wefts” was its specialty. Yunjin brocade was meticulous, innovative, and exquisite.
