Before Xi Mengsi became popular, the brown shed bed was a must -have in the home of ordinary people in the historical range for a long time. Its history can be traced back to the Song Dynasty. The implication and harmony of the bed have been entrusted to a good blessing for future life.

However, with the changes in the times, fewer and fewer people using brown sheds, and craftsmen who are brown sheds do not often appear in daily life.

In Wenhui Street, Gongshu District, there is a river on the street, adjacent to the Beijing Airlines Canal. This is once a concentrated place in Hangzhou Silk weaving. It has a strong historical and cultural atmosphere and life. Chen Huijuan's brown shed bed shop is on this street. The long -lost craftsmanship still exists in this street and still adheres to it.

Chen Huijuan has been on this shop for 25 years. When I walked into the store, I can see that most places are filled with a 1.8 -meter by 1.5 meter wooden frame. The tough palm fiber was rubbed, which is the core raw material for making brown bed beds.

The production process of brown sheds is simple and hard. Under the light, Chen Huijuan held the iron rake in his right hand, tapped the palm rope skillfully, hooked the brown rope little by little, and tightened the brown rope with a special "iron claw" to let the rope and the rope. The gap becomes smaller ... the brown line slowly becomes a brown bed, like weaving sweaters, the dense and compact brown line determines the final quality of a brown bed.

The brown shed bed has good breathability, warm in winter and cool in summer, and does not have insects, especially when it is cold, because of the breathability, the cotton blanket will not be humid, and it will play a role in warmth. Secondly, the bedboard is strong and elastic. Compared with the spring bed, there is no reaction force under weight compression. It is suitable for children and lumbar muscle strain, neck and shoulder pain, and cervical spondylosis. A brown bed, sleeping for thirty or forty years.

"Making a brown shed bed is both a technical work and an individual work. The production process is delicate and exquisite. If there is no link, it will affect the firmness and aesthetics of the whole brown shed. , Playing the line, the string line to the weaving, the bed takes three or four days to do it. "Chen Huijuan said that when the business was red, he got up at about 5 o'clock every day and started to do it at 9 o'clock in the evening.

On the day after day, Chen Huijuan summarized her life: "Being a brown shed bed is the same as being a person, one stitches, one step at a time, and down -to -earth."

Over the years, with their superb craftsmanship and good reputation, there are many customers of Chen Huijuan's shops. Most of them are introduced by acquaintances. Customers are also coming.

Speaking of business, Chen Huijuan is relatively satisfied. "Our store has been opened for a long time, everyone feels comfortable to use, and then calls friends around to customize." She said, every time she saw the customer is an old customer, or hearing it The new customer was introduced by others, and she was very happy, which was also recognition of her craftsmanship.

Chen Huijuan said: "I used to make a brown bed to support her family and to survive. Now I like to make brown sheds, I will always bring the trust and love of customers." (Hangzhou reporter Yan Yuting correspondent Bi Hongxue Liang Yuqing )
