According to historical records, the balls used in cuju, an ancient football game in China, were made from hair, silk or cotton. Once a ball had been wrapped and tied, various designs would be embroidered on it with colored silk thread. Every stitch and thread of these "hand-embroidered cuju balls" is a meticulous and artistic historical record.
