< p > leather and fur are closely related to the production and life of the nomadic people of the grasslands. They have thousands of years of history.

The herdsmen live in felt Mongolia bags, which are made of cattle felt (Hei Zhan), leather robes, leather boots, fur, horse skins, whips, pouch and leather harness.

The sheepskin raft used to cross the river and bind the cattle wool rope used in Mongolia do not leave the fur everywhere.

Therefore, fur craft has a long history in Inner Mongolia, and people also create colorful fur culture in production and life.

Fur handicraft is not only the carrier of grassland culture, but also an important part of grassland culture.

The Mongolian fur craft in Inner Mongolia has a high reputation and influence abroad.

< /p >

< p > leather and fur souvenirs and handicrafts, because of its deep cultural heritage, high popularity and unique traditional techniques, together with the continuous innovation of experts, scholars and business elites in leather handicraft industry over the past twenty years, we have developed many new products combining traditional grassland culture elements with modern fashion.

In 80s, there were professional tourist souvenirs production and marketing enterprises in the early stage of tourism development in the autonomous region.

Tourists mainly visit shopping malls and ethnic products factories, and buy some distinctive ethnic products: ox horn cups, silver bowls, Mongolia knives and so on.

The development of leather handicrafts has gone through several stages.

In 1993, several people such as Li Jinsheng and Xu Dongsheng in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, developed the first batch of leather carving paintings, namely, "unicorn brand leather paintings", which was the first time to appear in Beijing import and export fair according to Inner Mongolia's export demand.

In 1999, the "Yuanbao" leather pouch developed by Zhaojun leather art works in Yuquan District of Hohhot city (that is, Su Lu ingots) opened up a new field of leather modeling art.

Then, according to market demand, leather handicraft experts and scholars developed leather mosaic, Ordos dressing, cowhide calming, leather slippers, cowboy hat, leather wallet and other leather handicrafts and souvenirs, so that the market of leather handicrafts and souvenirs has been enriched year by year, and new varieties have been increasing.

At the same time, closely related to leather handicrafts, horn carving crafts, bone carving crafts, fur stereoscopic paintings, artistic tapestries, Mongolia embroidery crafts and so on are constantly innovating on the basis of traditional crafts, so that the leather products with unique characteristics of Inner Mongolia will become an important role of Inner Mongolia's tourist shopping market.

< p > November 2009, the National Tourism Administration held the first China International Tourism Commodities Fair and the national tourism commodities competition in Yiwu, and asked the provincial and provincial tourist bureaus to select 15 entries.

The Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region selected 15 products (when the second regional tour crafts and souvenirs competition was held during the competition, nearly 1500 excellent works were produced in the region), 4 of which were fur handicrafts, 3 were awarded (80 prize winning entries nationwide), and none of the handicrafts of other materials were awarded.

Since 2009, the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region has participated in the China International Tourism Commodities Fair for 6 consecutive years, and has won 17 awards, including 16 leather handicrafts and 95% of all winning entries. All the awards for the leather products of the national competition were awarded by Inner Mongolia.

It can be seen that the leather handicraft in this area has strong influence and technical strength in leather handicrafts.

In view of the leading role of Inner Mongolia leather tourism crafts and souvenirs in the whole country, holding a competition of Chinese leather tourism crafts and souvenirs in Inner Mongolia is a popular hope. It helps Inner Mongolia's Mongolian culture to inherit and inherit, and helps leather handicrafts to improve their grades and expand their specifications, which is more conducive to improving the visibility of Inner Mongolia's tourism products.

< p > < strong > leveraging the tourism economy to develop the traditional advantageous industries < /strong > < /p >

< p > grassland in Inner Mongolia has an area of 86 million hectares, accounting for 27% of the total grassland area in the country, ranking the first of five prairies.

Animal husbandry has always been an important part of Inner Mongolia's economy.

In the early days of liberation, there was no industry in Inner Mongolia. Some people were humorously summed up as: light industry, fur maker, heavy industry and horseshoe.

We can see the status of fur industry in Inner Mongolia, and now that industry has developed, Inner Mongolia is no longer a pillar of fur industry.

But fur industry still has a historical tradition and important role in Inner Mongolia.

Therefore, through the development of tourist commodities, we can make full use of the rich raw materials of fur and horn bones in our region, inherit fur industry skills and grassland culture for thousands of years, dig deep hidden traditional folk leather artists, and also enrich the tourist shopping market, increase people's economic income and expand employment.

< p > < strong > International Leather known as the site of the old city, Jining heritage history helps development < /strong > < /p >

< p > "Jining" was named after the "market peace". Later it was considered that the two characters of Jining symbolized "auspicious", so the ancient name was used.

The uniqueness of Jining leather is the longest and longest.

It can be said that the leather trading market in Jining is the earliest leather trading market in Chinese history, but it was not called leather trade, but it was called fur business.

Jining has several hundred years ahead of Hohhot and Baotou.

Jining is located in the north of China. It is a mixed place between the Chinese farming people and the northern herdsmen. It is also a place for the trade between the agricultural products of the Central Plains and the fur and livestock on the northern grassland. So naturally, the market of China's earliest fur animal (leather) and food and daily necessities interacted.

The leather processing of "P >" not only has a long history, but also a set of "traditional leather processing technology" which has been circulated for thousands of years has also formed a unique leather culture.

From 80 to 90s of last century, there were leather processing factories in all the flag counties of Wulanchabu. At that time, the "panda fur coat" produced by Jining leather factory, the "Beijing style sheep shearing scissors" produced by Hua De, and the "marmot fur cap" were very famous.

The leather industry of Jining has really developed and has a great reputation in the whole country and even a place in the international arena after 60s.

In 1960, the Jining leather products factory was moved from Shanghai to Jining to support the construction of the border area. Due to the excellent quality of leather raw materials and the exquisite workmanship of the advanced equipment and Shanghai workmen, leather products made by the leather factory are very popular with consumers in the region because of their soft leather, glossy gloss, fashionable style and beautiful appearance.

Exports to Cuba, Canada, France, Finland, Hongkong and other more than 20 countries and regions, export products accounted for 50% of the total production.

The panda and leather jackets produced by the factory were awarded second and third of the same products in 1984.

Silver medal was awarded at the first international fair in Beijing in 1989.

The giant panda leather jacket has been selected as the famous brand product in the autonomous region. Because the leather and leather products produced by the factory are mainly exported, there are few domestic sales. When anyone can wear a panda leather jacket produced by a Jining leather factory, it is a boundless glory.

< p > 90s > a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_f.asp" > late < /a >, due to the restructuring of state-owned enterprises, insufficient funds and market changes, the Jining leather goods factory, which had been burning for decades, went bankrupt.

"Panda leather" has also been quietly forgotten, but the "Jining leather goods" brand or impression has not disappeared.

After the closure of the enterprise, many laid-off workers in the leather goods factory set up a booth near the leather goods factory, started a small leather workshop, and gradually formed a small leather part of the Jining leather goods street.

Many merchants in Hebei, Henan, Shanxi, Shaanxi and the South still buy small leather goods from Jining. Jining still has a long skin brand charm.
