The oil paper umbrella is a traditional Chinese handicraft(手工艺品). It has a history of over 1,000 years in China. In the early Tang dynasty, it was introduced to Japan, so it was called the “Tang Umbrella”. Later oil paper umbrellas were spread to other Asian countries, such as Vietnam, Thailand and Laos, and each had its own style. However, the handmade oil paper umbrellas became less used in daily life. They were turned into decorative artifacts(装饰性手工艺品).
Yuhang in Hangzhou is known for making oil paper umbrellas for more than 230 years. They are mainly made of skin paper(皮纸), bamboo and a coating of tung oil(桐油). It needs to take more than 70 steps to make an oil paper umbrella, including making bamboo ribs, pasting paper(糊纸) and painting patterns. It takes at least a week to make an umbrella.
A young man called Liu Weixue learned the traditional art of making Yuhang oil paper umbrellas from his grandfather. “I want to bring the art to life,”Liu said. He improved the umbrellas to win the hearts of young people. As the traditional paper was easy to break, he started to use a kind of thicker paper. In a test, his umbrellas were opened and closed for 1,000 times without breaking. He used a kind of special bamboo to make the umbrella slighter.
Now Liu hopes the art can be passed on. He goes to local schools to teach students. He also goes to events in different places to promote(推广) the art.
