Brocade Auspicious Bookmark：

Crafted with the timeless art of Song brocade, this bookmark carries Eastern wishes of a bright future and smooth sailing, accompanying you through every page and every moment of progress.

Zhang Guoquan Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum Song Brocade integrates oriental intangible heritage weaving art with the imagery of literati elegance, blending Zhang Guoquan’s intangible heritage craftsmanship with the noble spirit of the "Four Gentlemen" (plum, orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum) to create a Song brocade fabric with literati temperament and timeless value.

Plum blossoms symbolize integrity in cold, perseverance, elegance and purity; orchids signify gentleness, humility, freedom from vulgarity and the virtue of a gentleman; bamboo represents modesty with integrity, uprightness and perseverance; chrysanthemums embody tranquility, seclusion, elegance and longevity.

Combined with the core techniques of Song brocade—warp-and-weft patterning, three-harness twill, and multi-weft weaving, it carries the spiritual pursuit of literati and scholars, signifying noble character, a broad future, a peaceful state of mind and lasting blessings.
