Mino paper umbrellas (By Zhuozheng Yue)







卓正岳Zhuozheng Yue油紙傘是美濃最著名的手工藝,早期美濃人自廣東請來的師傅,傳授
油紙傘技藝,墊下了美濃傘業的根基,雖然經過一連串風光與沒落的
歲月,但是還是有一些人還是默默堅持著這份工作。而目前油紙傘的
角色也開始慢慢的轉為遊客們追尋的文化焦點了。
Mino paper umbrellas are the most famous of the arts and crafts. Early Mino people invited people from Guangdong to teach them how to make paper umbrellas. The skills they learned help them become the best paper umbrella makers and put Mino on the map!
They enjoyed the prosperity for quite a while, however their popularity declined because of modern materials, like plastic, were stronger.
But some people still insist on making paper umbrellas to keep a big part of their history alive. This silent passion has started interest in the paper umbrellas of Mino for visitors to come to search for earlier and simpler times.
