Jiang'an Bamboo Inlay

Jiang'an Bamboo Inlay

　　　　Yibin's Jiang'an County is rich in nanmu bamboo. Jiang'an Bamboo Inlay has a history of over 300 years. The handicrafts produced are rustic yet elegant, featuring a distinct ethnic style, and have won awards at the Panama International Exposition. Originally handmade, the production process gradually became semi-mechanized after the founding of the People’s Republic of China. The variety of products increased, and quality improved. The craft has been exhibited eight times in Beijing and six times abroad, winning multiple awards and being exported to Europe and America. The production of bamboo inlay crafts is highly intricate and meticulous, including over 140 varieties such as bamboo inlay mosaics and bamboo inlay carvings. These products are supplied not only to many domestic cities but also sold to more than 30 countries and regions, including the United States and West Germany. Among them, the bamboo inlay palace lanterns and portable travel mahjong boxes produced by the Jiang'an Bamboo Inlay Craft Factory have won the Silver Award for Tourism Products from the Sichuan Provincial Planning and Economic Commission. The Human Face Bamboo Vase also received the "Trustworthy" Product Award from the National Bamboo Association.
