Luonan straw plaiting is a traditional folk weaving technique. The technique has been winning its fame since the Ming (1368 DC-1644 DC) and Qing (1636 DC-1912 DC) dynasties. In Luonan County, Shangluo City of northwest China's Shaanxi Province, local people are capable of making more than 200 types of straw plaiting subjects, including cradles, vases, storage baskets, and slippers, with corn husk and straw as raw materials. These products are environmentally friendly, with practical and ornamental value.
