Symbolism and Design Inspiration

Surrounding the central figures are Jin embroidery motifs of flourishing plants such as flowers and pines, symbolizing prosperity and good fortune. The design is inspired by the treasured painting "Crane and Deer in Spring," which not only showcases the harmonious coexistence of these creatures but also conveys a message of national prosperity and flourishing life. The phrase "Crane and Deer in Spring" also symbolizes "Harmony in the Six Directions," expressing wishes for peace and longevity.

This vest features various Jin embroidery techniques, including flat stitch and twist stitch, bringing the animal figures to life. The colors of the embroidery threads are carefully selected, using pure plant dyes to achieve the tonal theme reminiscent of the Northern Wei period.
