Mr. Thomas E King
Everyday
throughout the island nation of Taiwan, highly
skilled artisans
create an amazing range of
handcrafted
specialties using
time-tested techniques that have been passed
down through
the generations. Embroidery is one
of the
ancient handicrafts
of China. Tainan, Taiwan's fourth largest
city,
is home to a number
of places where colourful
embroidery is still
carefully produced by hand.
One such
centre is the Traditional Folk Embroidery Art Shop
where huge
panels of orange, red and yellow
silk richly
embroidered with
dragons or other signs of the Chinese zodiac
cover the walls.
An increasing number of foreigntourists buy
the exquisite pieces
of embroidered silk for display as ornate
wall decorations.
Another
popular souvenir is a paper lantern although these
days many are mass
produced. In the west coast port town of
Lukang, Mr Wu Tun-hou
has been a lantern maker for nearly
65 years. Using traditional
methods to actually weave bamboo
strips into a framework,
then glue light paper or even silk on
to the
structure Mr Wu finally paints the fragile lantern in
a
multitude of colours
and patterns. His favourite symbol is the
dragon.
Mr Wu
is the only lantern maker in Lukang
while, a few
streets
away, Mr Chen Wan-Neng, Taiwan's sole
master
craftsman in tin
works with the metal to produce prized pieces
of art
based on characters from Chinese folklore.
Just
outside Taipei is an entire town virtually
devoted to
the production of
handicrafts from a special clay. In Yingge,
which is classed
as the nation's main production centre
of
ceramics, visitors
can make their own choice souvenir or buy
it in one of the
100 shops located along Old Pottery Street.
