我国是世界最早植桑、养蚕、缫丝、织绸的国家,出口丝织品历来被视为上等珍品,故被古代希腊、罗马誊称为“丝国”。这是我们祖先为丰富人类衣饰的一大贡献。研究泉州丝织业及其产品的外销史,对发展我国丝织业这一优良传统手工业和外贸业,具有重大的借鉴作用。

China is the earliest country in the world to plant mulberry, sericulture, silk reeling and silk weaving. Exported silk fabrics have always been regarded as the finest treasures, so it was called “silk country” by ancient Greece and Rome. This is a great contribution made by our ancestors to enrich human clothing. Studying the export history of Quanzhou silk industry and its products is of great reference to the development of China’s silk industry, an excellent traditional handicraft and foreign trade industry.
