The traditional Chinese art of umbrella printing with purple paper umbrellas is a common daily item in China.

However, in some regions, people appreciate and collect umbrellas as works of art.

Among them, the purple paper umbrella is highly praised for its unique production process and exquisite patterns.

The production process of a purple paper umbrella is very complex and requires multiple steps to complete.

Firstly, high-quality purple paper is selected as the material and then cut into appropriate sizes and shapes.

Next, the purple paper is folded into the shape of an umbrella rib and fixed with thin thread.

Finally, the umbrella surface is painted with pigments and various patterns are drawn on it.

These patterns usually include natural landscapes such as mountains and rivers, flowers and birds, as well as figures and animals.

Through the combination and variation of these patterns, the purple paper umbrella presents a unique artistic effect.

In addition to the purple paper umbrella, there is another traditional handicraft called oil paper umbrellas.

The production process of oil paper umbrellas is similar to that of purple paper umbrellas, but they use oil paper instead of purple paper.

Oil paper umbrellas are characterized by their good waterproof performance, making them more convenient to use on rainy days.

Furthermore, oil paper umbrellas also have a certain decorative function and can be used for indoor or outdoor display.

In summary, the traditional Chinese art of umbrella printing with purple paper umbrellas and oil paper umbrellas are important components of Chinese culture.

They not only have practical value but also contain rich spiritual and cultural connotations and historical significance.

By appreciating and collecting these works of art, we can better understand and inherit Chinese traditional culture.
