Chinese knots

Appearing in ancient times, the Chinese knot is a traditional handicraft art. Its endless variations and different materials such as cotton, flax, silk, leather, gold and silver, to name a few, have widened the applications of the Chinese knot.

Jewelry, clothes, gift-wrapping and furniture can be accentuated with unique Chinese knot creations. Large Chinese knot wall hangings have the same decorative value as fine paintings or photographs, and are suitable for decorating a parlor or study.
