Yunjin brocade is one of China's most celebrated traditional handicrafts. Closely associated with the city of Nanjing, it has a history going back 1,600 years. Yunjin literally means "cloud brocade," a name derived from its vivid colors and beauty which, it is said, only clouds can rival. Because of this, Yunjin brocade represents the pinnacle of Chinese silk-weaving art.
