Description

[Origin of hand-woven webbing] Before the advent of the loom, the weaving technology was a set of tools consisting of thin slates with holes drilled at the four corners and threads threaded through them. Four holes were drilled into a slate, and a thread was pierced through each hole. The wider the width of the weaving, the larger the thread. The more plates are needed, for example: 15 plates require 60 lines. After the straight warp threads are sorted and tied, a weft thread is woven in and out from the beginning to the end. Therefore, the webbing structure produced in this way is very strong. It can be used for reins and bundles initially, and can be used in modern times. Used as bracelets, belts, straps, etc. The original source is unknown. It is said to have started in the Iron Age. It was quite popular in Europe in the Middle Ages and was closely related to everyone’s life. After the emergence of the loom, this technology slowly disappeared until 1896, when German scholar Margarethe Lehmann-Fihes The lady discovered in the museum the panels used in this weaving technology and the webbing used by ancients. She re-examined and constructed this ancient craft in a practical way, so that this technology has been passed down to this day. After understanding the principles, you can also design your own. Patterns and colors. It can be used to hang mobile phones, small cameras, keys, certificates, leisure card holders, pendants, etc. The patterns are all designed and made by myself, and the customization time is about five working days.

Listing Summary

While traveling in Central and South America, I was deeply attracted by fabric craftsmanship and began to learn to create ribbons. It is woven using traditional weaving principles and techniques. A small single pattern can be continuously produced in several shapes on a long ribbon by using changes in the weaving method. This is ancient. The craftsmanship is ever-changing, and the patterns are all designed and made by myself.
