There Is A Silk Enterprise In Suzhou, Which Has Nearly 1000 Works Of Sericulture And Culture.

Wu Ling silk company's address is located in the former 35 school in Suzhou. It is not far from Guanqian Street, the most famous commercial street in Suzhou. Every time I go to the flower and bird market in Pi Shi street, it will pass by.

The first time I walked into the store, I was invited by Mr. Wu Ling, chairman of the board of directors, to take some photos a month and a half ago.

The day when he went to Wu Ling, after the heavy snow in Sucheng, the snow hadn't completely melted.

At the end of November last year, organized by the Suzhou Silk Industry Association and the "Silk world line" organized by the "silk Suzhou" exhibition organizer, Liu Dong, as head of the delegation, met with the relevant responsible persons of the French silkworm Protection Association during the visit to the Lyon silk exhibition and exchanged contacts with them.

Ms. Moulin and Mr. Dumaine of Valtex contacted Liu Dong to visit Wu Ling before coming to China.

The shops on the first floor are arranged in different categories, which are not very different from the general stores.

But if you are lucky enough to step on the third floor, you will be surprised.

The third floor is mainly a collection of four collections, including silkworm weaving objects, tapestry brocade, silk boutique and other art collections.

It is like a jade silkworm silkworm with thousands of years of history, and a fine dragon pattern embroidered in Qing Dynasty.

The earliest tapestry and the most colorful brocade in the 60s and 70s of last century.

It is Liu Dong's collection and accumulation in these decades. There are also collections in offices.

In addition to the research and development of silk art, Wu Ling also practiced "collecting classics and inheriting culture" as his own business philosophy. He compiled his collection research into the "silk art appreciation" of five thousand words in the past few years, and introduced and analyzed 300 pieces of the collection through pictures and text appreciation.

"Appreciation of silk art"

Speaking of his collection, Liu Dong is very familiar with his family.

One thing is carefully set out, and another one counts its origin.

Both Ms. Moulin and Mr. Dumaine observed very carefully and did not give any praise. They exchanged views with Liu Dong through plation.

When we left that day, Liu Dong told us, "I am still sorting out these collections and materials. If you write a report, don't mention it for the time being."

So in the first two days, when the mailbox received all the data from Wu Ling, I also contacted the general manager of Liu Jing, who provided the information, to ask if the collection pictures could be released.

This Wu Ling will show the company in the silk Suzhou 2018 exhibition.

Apart from the products, a site will be specially set up to display some of the company's collection of silkworm culture and art.

Viewers who are interested in such collections of art can go to Wu Ling's booth or have an exchange of understanding with Liu Dong about silkworm culture.

Silkworm cocoon flower - Wu Ling

In recent years, the main management of the company has been handed over to the daughter Liu Jing. As the younger generation of silk people, general manager Liu Jing has many unique ideas on silk. The two people will often adhere to tradition or develop products that are more in line with modern life habits.

Just like that day, when Wu arrived, Liu Jing could not wait to come up with the newly designed cocoon flower for us to show, while Liu Dong threw a look of reluctantly admiration.

According to Liu told me, besides the cocoon flower, other products developed by Wu Lingxin will also be presented at this exhibition site. As curious as I am, I will explore the booth of Wu Ling himself.
