The government of theTibet Autonomous Region stresses development of local traditional handicrafts. In 2000 this industry, producing more than 2,000 kinds of products, generated 210 million yuan in total output value. The industry is currently divided into more than 30 specialties. Kadian carpets, other carpets, pulu woolen fabric, aprons, Tibetan quilts, Tibetan clothing, Tibetan shoes and hats, Tibetan furniture, wooden bowls, gold and silver jewelry among other handicrafts are considered particularly significant because, in addition to serving the particular needs of the local people, they are snapped up by tourists as souvenirs. Pulu woolens, found mostly in Shannan, Xigaze and Lhasa itself, are widely produced in Tibetan households. Carpetmaking is a traditional Tibetan craft. Smaller carpets used to cover the bed, still produced in the old patterns, are called kadian. Gyangze has long been famous both in and outside of China for its kadian, with their singular weaving technique and bright colors.The Lhasa Carpet Factory and the Gyangze Kadian Factory are joined by countless small village enterprises producing kadian all over the plateau. The short sword or knife suspended from the belts of may Tibetans is worn ornamentally, but is also used for self-defense, in work and elsewhere in daily life. Major producers of this domestically and internationally well-received product can be found in Lhasa, Lhaze, Damxung and Yi'ong. Tibetan hats come in various types, most famously the finely made "gold flower cap," produced mainly in Lhasa and Xigaze. Made in different styles for men and women, the hats are quite popular in both the city and the countryside.
