Magpies on Plum Branches Suzhou Embroidery Round Fan 喜上眉梢苏绣团扇

Magpie & Plum Blossom Suzhou Embroidery Round Fan (Xiangfei Bamboo Frame)

This exquisite round fan, crafted with the intangible heritage art of Suzhou embroidery, weaves the auspicious charm of magpies on plum branches into its frame, presenting a refined Chinese accessory brimming with joyful blessings and classical elegance.

A pair of magpies perched on plum branches embodies the idiom "joy leaps to the brows," symbolizing blessings of joy, family happiness, and constant good fortune. The winter plum blossoms blooming proudly represent resilience, spring blessings, and a bright future. The Xiangfei bamboo frame, with its natural grain and antique charm, adds a touch of timeless warmth. Using fine Suzhou embroidery techniques—flat stitch color blending, gradient shading, and thread-following contours—the birds’ feathers appear soft and fluffy, and the petals are delicate and lively. It signifies constant joy, a happy heart, bright prospects, perfect harmony, and lasting blessings.
