Audrey Hepburn said: “When I put on a silk scarf, I have never felt so clearly that I am a beautiful woman.” It can be seen that silk scarves are another kind of beauty for women. Women who wear silk scarves have a beautiful legend and infinite charm. So what important processes does the production of a perfectly silky Beijing silk scarf go through?
1. In the design of Beijing silk scarves, every designer has his own experience and thinking. Behind everyone, there is a story. When they come together, sparks will burst out. The design of each Beijing silk scarf requires the creative thinking and brainstorming of a design team. Therefore, every cleverly designed Beijing silk scarf is infused with the designer’s soul.
2. Pattern making of Beijing silk scarves. The plate making work requires a dedicated team. The step of plate making is to decompose the various colors of the pattern. This step is called plate casting. When casting, the patternmaker would sit at a lighted table, attach a piece of transparent paper to the model, and then use Chinese ink to trace the details of each same color on the transparent paper as it is. A color is a piece of transparent paper. If a silk scarf comes in 40 different colors, 40 pieces of transparent paper will need to be drawn. The work is as slow as an ant, but it is of crucial significance, because perfect plate making must depend on perfect drawing.
3. Coloring of Beijing silk scarves. The unique color is an element that weavers are proud of. In the “paint factory” where colors are mixed, pans, spatulas, mixers and scales are everywhere. Weaver’s craftsmen develop 74,000 differentiated shades based on 40 parent colors through careful proportioning of water, natural gums and pigments. Wool red, slender black, aurora blue, neutral gray, trade wind blue, toluene yellow, each tone has a corresponding number. The whole process is huge and complicated, completely beyond the imagination of the world. After all the pigments are prepared, the corresponding stereotypes are injected, and printing can begin.
4. Beijing silk scarf printing. Stamping is the last step. The principle of printing is very simple: first, the white twill silk cloth is rolled and unfolded on the printing machine, and then each plate is printed on it one after another, and each time it is pressed, it is a color. The pattern of the silk scarf gradually emerges with the stereotypical stamping. Then hang the silk scarf on the table to dry for a few hours. After drying, use a steam oven to fix the color, clean off the residual imprint of the gum, lay it flat on the carpet and dry it with hot air. The final process is cut and rolled by hand by tailors.
This process takes an average of 45 minutes per scarf.
The above is about the production process of Beijing silk scarves. Every step of making silk scarves is crucial and interlocking.
