We are often asked, "How is shuttle embroidery different from regular machine embroidery?" Standard machine embroidery reads an embroidery pattern, and the machine stitches it automatically. This results in perfectly uniform and identical embroidery every time. Shuttle embroidery, on the other hand, is a craft where the artisan manually moves the fabric to create the embroidery pattern. Because it's made by hand, each piece has its own unique character. No two embroidered pieces are exactly alike, and the finished embroidery has a texture that resembles hand embroidery. It's an incredible artisan skill that involves transferring a sketch to the fabric and stitching while referencing the original design, coordinating with the up-and-down motion of the sewing machine needle. Currently, there are only about 400 people in Vietnam who can perform shuttle embroidery. Of these, only 50 work professionally. Furthermore, only 30 have passed the highest level (Level 4) of embroidery certification. Among them, only 10 can execute the intricate embroidery required by Pangandaran. However, being skilled alone isn't enough; embroidery requires a sense of style. Subtle nuances can significantly alter the overall impression. Therefore, at Pangandaran, we entrust our work to Hun, who possesses the highest level of skill. Hun is currently 46 years old and has been in this field for 31 years, starting at the age of 15. Moreover, he has a truly exceptional sense of style. We have complete faith in him. Due to recent economic development, traditional crafts in Vietnam, like elsewhere, face challenging circumstances. Since 2000, the number of people capable of shuttle embroidery has been rapidly declining, and there are no young people learning this skill today. It is anticipated that the number of artisans will continue to decrease, and Vietnamese shuttle embroidery is likely to fade away within the next decade or so. In this video, we had the privilege of having the master artisan Hun create the "Sudden Rain Embroidery." Please witness the beautiful embroidery brought to life with his assured technique.
