Prohibition Against Counterfeit Clothing In Ancient Times

People usually call clothes, food, shelter, travel and clothing the first place.

Since ancient times, clothing and clothing, as the "second skin" of human beings, have both the actual function of protecting the body and the most intuitive representation of the status of members of society.

Therefore, rulers of all dynasties in China will establish and improve the dress system as an important part of maintaining the ruling order.

Dress prohibition is a typical category in ancient Chinese dress system. It is usually promulgated by rulers in the form of imperial edicts. Its contents cover social, political, economic, cultural and other aspects.

From the perspective of dress prohibition, we can restore ancient Chinese clothes and life situations, and discover more little known historical details. We can not only explore the development of ancient costume culture, but also bring more enlightenment to our current real life.


In today's society, under the temptation of huge gray interests, the market

counterfeit

Fake and inferior products have been repeatedly prohibited and not only overflowed, but also spawned underground industrial chains, which are more and more from manufacturing to terminal sales, which seriously infringed upon the legitimate rights and interests of consumers and affected the normal operation of market order.

The manufacture and sale of fake and shoddy products has appeared in ancient China. This article will analyze the ancient way of counterfeiting in ancient China.


According to the records of the past five dynasties and later Liang Dynasty, four years (910) in Kaiping, the emperor of Tai Dynasty, Zhu Wen, said, "strange and evil is in disorder, false and false."

East and west two Beijing and Zhuzhou states should create false rhinoceros jade, pearl belt, Bi, ER and all kinds of colors for sale.

If the public and private family has the first place, the place will be sent to the long official to destroy the opposite side.

The State Council's procuratorial organs are still being arrested.


The imperial edict is punished according to the forgery.

Measures

"Rhinoceros jade, pearl belt, Bi and Er" are all very popular ornaments at that time.

"Rhinoceros jade" refers to rhinoceros horn and jade. As early as Yin merchants, there was a record of "rhinoceros jade Cup", which was later used for making hair ornaments, and gradually became popular in the Tang Dynasty. In the Dunhuang tune, there was an image description of "rhinoceros jade full of faces".

"Pearl" is the Pearl. During the Tang and Five Dynasties, the role of the belt as a status symbol is more important than the actual function of the clothing.

The material of the waistband is also varied. There are many kinds of materials, such as jade belt, gold and silver belt, etc. the pearl belt is rarely seen in the literature and unearthed objects. However, according to the historical data, pearl belt has become the object of counterfeiting, and its popularity can be seen.

"Bi" is a jade accessory. "Er" is pearl jade earrings, all of which are fashionable accessories at that time.


The emergence of so much counterfeit manufacturing is closely related to the rapid development of the handicraft industry at that time.

Demand based growth has not only increased the number of employees, the geographical distribution is wide, the division of labor has also been more detailed, but the manufacturing process has also been greatly improved. The application of new operation technology has provided convenience for the official and private workshops for the normal production of goods, and has also made the scale of counterfeiting rapidly expand.

In response to the social phenomenon of rampant fraud, what kind of punishment was adopted by the ancient rulers? After the rule, the banned articles of public or private need to be handed over to local officials and destroyed in person.

And if there is a deliberate violation of the edict, even death penalty is required.


However, even if the ban is so severe, it is still impossible to reverse the social phenomenon of fraud at that time in a short time.

According to the "ban Fu Yuan Tortoise" record, it is less than six months after the ban was issued. "It is time that the two Jing Hao people, as for the poor officials, must pretend to be a fraud of rhinoceros jade, although there are strict orders, they can not be banned".

After the prohibition was issued, it could not be implemented effectively or effectively, but it could not form a long-term mechanism.

This kind of phenomenon is quite common in ancient Chinese dress prohibitions. On the one hand, the prohibition cases were promulgated when the emperors were practicing the initial administration, and the instability of the political power led to weak supervision and punishment. On the other hand, the folk were luxurious.

clothing

The continued growth of consumer demand for ornaments is also the main reason for the repeated breakthroughs of prohibitions.


In today's antique collection market, a large number of fake products are covered with genuine clothing.

At present, there is still a great lack of legal norms in the protection of fraudulent profiteers and the protection of buyers' rights and interests.

Therefore, whether in ancient times or in modern times, it is necessary to establish and perfect relevant laws and regulations and increase punishments for the supervision of market and the links between counterfeiting and selling. On the other hand, the whole society needs to work together to rebuild the system of moral integrity, and strive to promote a healthy consumption cycle, so as to avoid repeating the same historical mistakes.
