Oil paper umbrellas have a history of over 1000 years in China. Yuhang in Hangzhou i s known for making oil paper umbrellas for over 230 years. Umbrellas here take more than 70 steps to make. And it takes at least a week to make one. In 2007, this kind of umbrella was added to Zhejiang Province's Intangible Cultural Heritage List.
Oil paper umbrellas used to be seen everywhere here. However, as steel-ribbed( 钢 骨的 )umbrellas appeared, the oil paper umbrellas became less used in daily life. Instead, they turned into decorative(装饰性的) artworks.
To bring the art to life, some umbrella-making masters in Yuhang have improved oil paper umbrellas. As the traditional paper is easy to break, they use a thicker paper. So the umbrellas can be opened and closed 1, 000 times without breaking. And a lighter kind of bamboo is used to make ribs. So, the umbrellas weigh less. This kind of umbrellas has won the hearts of many young people.
