白熾燈泛著黃光，老人在藤椅上悠閑地搖著蒲扇……那搖起來嘎吱作響的藤椅，承載了很多中國人對家最溫暖的回憶。那時候，藤編品可一直是人們家居的寵兒。

Under the yellow glow of an incandescent lamp， an old man waves a cattail－leaf fan leisurely on a rattan chair．．． This is a common scene across China． The rattan chair， which creaks when swung， carries many Chinese’s warm memories of home， because at that time， rattan－woven products were popular household items．

那么現在，藤編品落伍了嗎？

答案是，不！

So now， are rattan－woven products out of fashion？ The answer is， no！

藤椅、藤箱、藤桌、藤床甚至藤編的小象玩具！在中國匠人的巧手里，如今的藤編已經延展了約5000多個品種！想象一下！你的兒子騎著藤編的自行車，你的妻子挎著藤編的籃子去超市買菜，而你在藤編沙發上舒服地刷著手機……鞋柜、茶幾、床……藤編品在人們現代化的家中，不僅沒有消失，反而帶著一股復古風潮，為更多中國人繼續編織著家的回憶。

Rattan－woven products such as chair， box， table， bed and even toy elephant are among some 5，000 varieties created by skilled Chinese craftsmen． Picture this in your mind： Your son rides a rattan－made bicycle； your wife goes to the supermarket with a rattan－made basket， and you play with your mobile phone comfortably on a rattan sofa．．． From shoe cabinet to coffee table， retro－style rattan－woven products have managed to keep weaving memories of home for more Chinese instead of disappearing in modern homes．

中國新一代年輕人的生活越來越多彩，藤編也與時俱進，跟著豐富起來。在他們的家中，取材自然的藤條或“化身”精美的藝術品，或變成更小巧實用的家居用品，你可以看到藤編的貓窩、水杯托、置物架或者花籃等一些小巧的家居裝飾品。

China’s young generation are living an increasingly colorful life， and rattan weaving also keeps pace with the changes． In their homes， natural rattan could be found in the presence of exquisite artworks， practical household items， and home decorations such as cat nests， water cup holders， shelves or flower baskets．

同時，一些年輕的視頻博主以藤編手工收獲了大量的粉絲，也有一些以藤編創造了相當的財富。而這也給了他們“編織”一個“家”的能力和底氣，做喜歡的東西同時可以謀生，在中國的年輕人看來是多么浪漫且有趣！

At the same time，Some young vloggers have gained a large number of fans with their rattan－weaving skills， while others have made considerable fortunes． It also gives them the ability and confidence to “weave” a living． For many young Chinese， it’s quite romantic and interesting to make a living by doing things they love．
