Title A name given to the resource Embroidered Chinese jacket belonging to Rose Grainger 对襟（马褂女版） Subject The topic of the resource domestic objects; clothing; shoes; Chinese material culture Description An account of the resource The wide variety of clothing reflects the diversity of culture in the nation during the Qing Dynasty. After the Manchu-Qing rulers from the north of the great wall seized the power in China, they assert authority over the dominant native Han Chinese population and established new dress codes. The robes of Manchu women differed from the clothing of the Han women. Two nations borrowed certain elements from each other and created a new type of garments. This embroidered Chinese Jacket is an example of this garment reform. The wide robe sleeves were a feature of typical Han women’s Clothing whilst the short length of the robe adopt from Manchurian culture.

Title A name given to the resource Lotus shoes 莲花鞋 Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource Grainger Museum Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 04.5556 Subject The topic of the resource domestic objects; costume; shoes; Chinese material culture Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Unknown creator Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Grainger Museum Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource early twentieth century Description An account of the resource DESCRIPTION: silk, thread, linen, wooden base. OVERVIEW: Shoes are conical or sheath-shaped, intended to imitate the shape of lotus flowers. They are made of cotton or silk, so small that they can be put into the palm of your hand. Some designs have high heels or wedge soles. They are made in different styles and colours, usually ornately decorated and embroidered with animals or flowers, and they can continue to be used on soles. When wearing lotus shoes under a long skirt, it will bind the small feet. Although lotus shoes are no longer bound with women's feet, they are still exist as relics in museums or private collections. In history, it has provided so much cultural fascination and ethical debate of the traditional Chinese practice of foot binding. This kind of shoes will leave a beautiful lotus pattern when stepping on the soil, which is called "lotus shoes by steps". https://omeka.cloud.unimelb.edu.au/grainger/files/original/6dd75d9ee8fde367afe5d7ac6b88314c.JPG 9628b84e4a4bc1111468b89f86645e31 https://omeka.cloud.unimelb.edu.au/grainger/files/original/887c993a74a4830a952aacefc74eb18c.JPG a7ac1755ffda27367f6e81aa2c0191d6 https://omeka.cloud.unimelb.edu.au/grainger/files/original/026f17f5a52ae90627d3ba14d6454e57.JPG 8e2da6b2dd3f2982eccb3f9c3ece99e5 https://omeka.cloud.unimelb.edu.au/grainger/files/original/78d90f3f678d70ea262f76a1e3e8d13f.JPG 098b150ee65664b9ca7c625dde16f52d https://omeka.cloud.unimelb.edu.au/grainger/files/original/80debc906e5e7ca215f7665d7d6f311b.JPG 68f42cbc25a71d3c103a5ae494e4365f https://omeka.cloud.unimelb.edu.au/grainger/files/original/ad8a53156e72bfcae6ea36c543adc97e.JPG b688fec141cf80dc17a4c898669a61a8 https://omeka.cloud.unimelb.edu.au/grainger/files/original/28fbd9bee4878090db89c8d58883721d.JPG 52e5fad0c9014240f024201ad63b2784 https://omeka.cloud.unimelb.edu.au/grainger/files/original/e21dd8b9e62c956e39ff69eb996f64f1.JPG b55c17a08fd7b8bbf1ed4984b1c55cfb Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
