織品來自日常，而日常編織歷史。一塊古老的織品可以窺見祖輩的技藝與創意，也能從中解讀當時社會狀況，經緯之間，綴出一部人類文明進化史。

Textiles speak to the conditions and directions of our daily lives, as well as serving as woven records of our past.

臺灣織品文物的種類包羅萬象，從博物館織繡藏品、宗教旗幟與民俗服裝、南北館閣之涼傘，到各族群傳統織物等，皆具獨特的工藝之美。隨著文保觀念的提升，近年來，國內具代表性的織品文物已陸續被指定登錄為文化資產，如北港飛龍團大龍旗、紫地「新芳春行」大八仙彩、臺灣民主國「藍地黃虎旗」(摹本)、大武壠平埔族繡花頭巾披肩、泰雅族銅鈴長衣等。

Also not a few textile artifacts deteriorates due to poor conservation knowledge and management..
