Its long culms, sparse nodes, fine fibers, excellent tensile strength, and high flexibility make it one of the finest materials for bamboo weaving. The resilience of *Cí zhú* truly showcases the inherent toughness of bamboo. Furthermore, it possesses properties like water and acid-alkali resistance, allowing it to maintain its robust nature even in challenging environments. A qualified culm of *Cí zhú* must be between one and three years old. These stringent selection criteria are what result in bamboo woven items that are both practical and artistically beautiful. The beauty of bamboo weaving lies not only in its simple forms and intricate patterns but also in the sense of order conveyed through each strand. Millennia of techniques, refined and condensed through the focused dedication of artisans, transform into a handmade bamboo woven piece. Each creation serves as a coordinate, spanning east and west as the warp, and connecting north and south as the weft. The neat joins and the ebb and flow of the weave evoke a sense of journey, having witnessed the clouds and moon of history. **Handmade bamboo woven items are purely hand-woven, reflecting the warmth of handcrafted goods.
