It is also known as "Ji" oxi ye, also known as "duer", "pinch and dizzy vale", commonly known as "pinch flowers". It is a dyeing technology of ancient textiles in China, and it is also one of the traditional manual dyeing techniques in China. Recently, the Chinese Silk Museum opened a new exhibition called "the vale of Silk Road". Everyone is asking, what does "vale" mean?

This word came a little late and appeared only in the Tang Dynasty as a general term for ancient antidyed printed fabrics. What is the stain? You read it: stop your staining. The ancients came up with all kinds of strange ways to prevent the color from being stained and deliberately create blanks, so as to form various creative patterns. That is to say, according to a certain pattern, stitch the fabric into a certain shape with needle and thread, or tie it directly with the thread, then tighten it tightly, so that the fabric is creased and overlapped. It is not easy to dye the fold at the time of dyeing, but it is easy to stain when it is not tied, so as to form a distinctive flavor of the faint color effect.

The "valerian" appeared in the Tang Dynasty, but whether it was the earliest or not, is hard to say nowadays. But at that time, they had already felt that a piece of white cloth had been spread out, painted some patterns and stained some colors, so they were so peaceful that they came up with the "three ancient valerian": twisted valerian, grey valerian, and clipped valerian.

　 How do we distinguish these three little partners?

It is tie dyeing, and it has the effect of halo dyeing; grey vale is the blue printed cloth we often see; as for the clip, the pattern must be symmetrical.
