About
About Us On the longitude and latitude of history and modernity, intangible cultural heritage carries the ingenuity and wisdom of the Chinese nation for thousands of years. As a sales platform focusing on women's luggage, CKICH takes inheritance and innovation as its mission, and carefully builds a bridge between intangible cultural heritage crafts and modern life, so that every bag carrying cultural heritage can become a fashion symbol showing oriental aesthetics. Ingenuity traces back to the source: exploring the brilliant galaxy of intangible cultural heritage crafts In order to let consumers encounter the true charm of intangible cultural heritage,
CKICH s product selection team has footprints all over China. In the embroidery workshop in Zhenhu, Suzhou, we have in-depth cooperation with the inheritors of the intangible cultural heritage of Suzhou embroidery. As a national intangible cultural heritage, Suzhou embroidery is famous for its eight major techniques of "flat, neat, fine, dense, harmonious, bright, uniform, and smooth", and its double-sided embroidery, fine embroidery and other unique skills are even more ingenious. The embroiderer uses the needle as a pen, and the silk thread outlines the agility of flowers and birds and the beauty of mountains and rivers on the silk. Each stitch condenses the essence of thousands of years of skills. Entering the Miao village in Qiandongnan, Guizhou, we discovered the precious intangible cultural heritage treasure of Miao embroidery. Miao embroidery is known as the "wordless history book" of the Miao people. Its bold and exaggerated composition, strong and gorgeous colors and mysterious totems, through unique techniques such as broken thread embroidery, pile embroidery and lock embroidery, tell the historical legends and life scenes of the Miao people.
The embroiderers fly the needles in the stilt houses, weaving the memory of the nation with silk threads. In Chengdu, Sichuan, we found craftsmen who adhere to the ancient leather goods making skills. This long-standing craft, from natural vegetable tanned leather to hand-cutting and sewing, follows the ancient method in every process, allowing the leather to precipitate a warm luster over the years, telling the story of ancient craftsmanship. However, with the changing times, these intangible cultural heritage skills are facing the dilemma of inheritance. The younger generation is rarely willing to devote themselves to learning, and the inheritance of skills is in jeopardy. Fashion rebirth: modern interpretation of intangible cultural heritage bags
CKICH strictly selects bags and bags brands that integrate intangible cultural heritage craftsmanship to enter the platform. Each product is the crystallization of the collision of tradition and fashion. In the "Splendid Chapter" area, Suzhou embroidery bags are eye-catching. A double-sided handbag with different colors embroidered on it, with a graceful peony on the front and an elegant orchid on the back. Different patterns and colors coexist harmoniously on the same embroidered surface, matched with a simple streamlined bag body and a metal chain, classical elegance and modern fashion complement each other. In the "Miao Charm" area, Miao embroidered bags are unique. The "Miaojiang Totem" messenger bag uses Miao embroidery totems such as dragons, birds, and butterflies as elements, and uses pile embroidery techniques to create three-dimensional patterns. Wear-resistant canvas is matched with leather edging, which not only retains the ethnic style, but also meets the practical needs of modern urban women. The ancient leather goods and bags in the "Leather Art Products" area are equally amazing. The "Ancient Vegetable Tanned Leather" handbag is handmade from leather tanning to engraving twig patterns. The leather gradually turns into honey color with use, recording every journey of the owner. Cultural inheritance: Ignite the spark of intangible cultural heritage dissemination
CKICH is well aware that inheriting intangible cultural heritage is not only about selling products, but also about passing on culture. The platform has established in-depth cooperation with intangible cultural heritage inheritors and brands, and through stable order support, it allows craftsmen to concentrate on their creations; it regularly holds "Intangible Cultural Heritage Master Studio Open Days" to invite designers to communicate with inheritors and explore the innovative possibilities of intangible cultural heritage craftsmanship in modern luggage design. In order to attract the attention of the younger generation to intangible cultural heritage, the platform has launched the "Intangible Cultural Heritage into Campus" activity, inviting inheritors to enter campus to demonstrate embroidery and leather goods making skills; it has launched the "Intangible Cultural Heritage Experience Month", where consumers can make online reservations for offline workshops and participate in luggage making in person. At the same time, with the help of new media such as short videos and live broadcasts, the stories and production processes behind intangible cultural heritage luggage are shared on major platforms, allowing intangible cultural heritage culture to enter the lives of more people. Future Journey: Let Intangible Cultural Heritage Luggage Go to the World Looking to the future,
CKICH will continue to deepen its intangible cultural heritage luggage field, explore more luggage products with intangible cultural heritage elements such as Shu embroidery, indigo dyeing, and wood carving, and enrich the cultural connotation of the platform. Actively participate in international fashion exhibitions, promote intangible cultural heritage luggage brands to the world, and let the world see the vigorous vitality of Chinese intangible cultural heritage in the field of modern fashion. In addition, the platform plans to set up an intangible cultural heritage development fund to support the protection of intangible cultural heritage skills, the training of inheritors and the incubation of young designers.
We hope that through CKICH is efforts, intangible cultural heritage skills will be reborn in the new era, and that luggage products that carry the genes of Chinese culture will become a window for the world to understand China, writing a new chapter in the inheritance and innovation of intangible cultural heritage.
