Daiyu Peacock 《黛玉孔雀》

Blushing and shy, filled with the essence of spring, the "Daiyu Peacock" silk wool top stands out with its unique charm. Crafted from premium silk wool fabric, this top offers a luxurious and comfortable feel against the skin. Traditional Jin embroidery techniques, including flat stitch, twist stitch, and phoenix top stitch, are beautifully showcased in this piece.

Artistic Representation

A highlight of this design is the open-face technique, characteristic of Jin embroidery's Song aesthetic. It captures the moment when Daiyu learns of Baoyu's marriage, depicting her emotional transition from youthful innocence to heart-wrenching despair. The embroiderer skillfully presents Daiyu's blushing visage, her gentle gaze and soft brows revealing her overflowing talent and delicate beauty.

Symbolism and Design Elements

The peacock feathers meticulously sewn onto the chest add a light and airy touch, resembling movement in the wind, symbolizing auspiciousness and beauty. This embellishment enhances the ethereal quality of the top, perfectly blending traditional Jin embroidery with the classic character of Lin Daiyu from "Dream of the Red Chamber." Each stitch narrates her emotional journey, and the incorporation of peacock elements complements Daiyu’s grace and talent, creating a whimsical and dreamlike atmosphere.
