Five centuries ago, under the southern Chinese sun, artisans began dyeing silk not with chemicals — but with the earth itself.
What emerged was Xiang Yun Sha (香云纱), or Fragrant Cloud Silk, a textile so exquisite, it was once reserved for nobility; now recognised nationally as China’s Intangible Cultural Heritage (2008).
Today, Tang Heritage revives this endangered art form, transforming it into heirloom pieces for the modern bag collector.
Once the Xiang Yun Sha silk is perfected, it is entrusted to our atelier artisans — each bag requiring over 40 hours of meticulous handwork.
Not because it’s easy, but because it must be perfect. Because a fabric this scarce deserves craftsmanship that does its 500-year-old tradition justice.
Peony-Embossed Xiang Yun Sha
This silk undergoes 16 complex processes and 35 rounds of dyeing over six months to produce just a few meters. Recognized as an intangible cultural heritage material, it is considered one of the most luxurious and noble silks available.
Luxurious Gold-Tone Hardware
The artisan team meticulously crafts each high-quality alloy metal hardware with high oxidation resistance, exuding luxury while maintaining a balanced weight.
Spacious, Structured Interior
Our artisan emphasises that luxury is not just about beauty—it's about thoughtful compartments that help you stay organised while still maintaining the bag's beauty.
Engineered For Longevity
At Tang Heritage, luxury is not just about beauty—it’s about endurance. The artisan team reinforces each seam, edge, and structure to ensure lasting form and function.

The fabric’s subtle sheen, achieved through botanical dyeing and sunlight curing, shimmers with depth, echoing the delicate balance of sunlight and rain that gives it life.
Inspired by the noble motif of “富贵牡丹” (the peony of prosperity), each petal pattern glows with understated elegance. The structured silhouette and polished gold-tone clasp reflect Tang Heritage’s signature dialogue between tradition and modern refinement — a celebration of grace born from cultural memory and contemporary poise.
