Chinese Bondage – The Five Flowers Tie

Many years ago, when we were teaching a class at the ShibariCon convention in Chicago on the Chinese five flowers tie (Wu Hua Da Bang), we developed a tutorial website called Chinese Rope Art, which was intended to serve as an introduction to the tie and as a study aid. The site contained information on the origin & history of the tie, plus numerous step by step examples demonstrating how to do the tie in both basic & advanced forms. Many decorative variations that incorporated the five flowers tie along with the Japanese Takate Kote and more western influences are also pictured. The site was somewhat hastily put together and did not include all the information we had available. We intended to update the site with additional information and examples, including some video tutorials, but as time went by, we moved on to other projects and generally lost interest. It is unlikely we will keep the site up for much longer. So if you are interested in Chinese bondage, or just want to see some more pics of our models tied up all fancy like 🙂 check out the site before it is gone.

  1. This was great and we get to see Dianne tied up, at least from the back as a model for many of the step by step sets. So many intricate ties.
