Emperors cultivated it. Poets wrote entire collections in its honour. When it bloomed in spring, the city came to a standstill. Merchants closed their stalls, courtiers left their offices, and the whole of Chang'an walked out to look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe peony. 牡丹.

And for over a thousand years, Chinese craftspeople have been trying to capture it: in silk, in porcelain, in jade, and now, in thread on leather, on a bag made to be carried into the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Motif — Embroidered Peony\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe peony has been China's most celebrated floral symbol since the Tang dynasty (618–907 CE). No other flower has accumulated so much meaning: wealth, nobility, feminine grace, romantic love, the fullness of life in bloom. Classical poets compared it to the Goddess of the Luo River rising from water; the\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eShijing\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ereached for it when searching for a word adequate to beauty itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe embroidery on this bag renders the peony in three dimensions: petals layered over petals, each catch of light revealing a new depth. This is not a printed pattern. It is high-relief cowhide embroidery (高浮绣), worked in ivory-white and warm gold silk thread on the pearl white version; antique gold on deep black. The same motif, two entirely different moods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design is an original registered work (Registration No. 黔作登字-2021-F-00329117).
