ผ้าไหมและชา: การส่งออกของจีนสองครั้งในระยะเวลาสองพันปี

Silk

Mulberry silk has a long fine fibre and a soft lustre — the choice for premium bedding and apparel. Tussah silk is coarser and more amber, at a friendlier price. Common constructions: crepe satin, doupion, georgette, and mulberry-filled duvets (filling must be 100% long-fibre floss).

Momme (mm) is the thickness unit for silk fabric — 16/19/22/25 mm, the higher the heavier.

Tea

Six categories: green (Longjing, Biluochun), white (Silver Needle, Shoumei), yellow, oolong (Tieguanyin, Da Hong Pao, Dan Cong), black (Lapsang Souchong, Keemun) and dark/post-fermented (Pu-erh, Liubao).

Export note: EU pesticide MRLs are strict — ship with residue reports matching the destination standard, and prefer factories with export-registered bases and the needed certificates.

Why culture matters

Goods are only the carrier; what buyers remember is the craft and the story behind them. The China Select floor pairs daily necessities and Chinese-style products with this knowledge so overseas buyers understand what they are selling.
