Traditional Chinese Kites

Our Chinese Dragon kites come from Weifang in Shandong province - the heart of traditional kite building in China. Our Chinese partners make kites which are both highly decorative and excellent fliers, and we are very pleased to be able to offer these to our customers in the UK, USA and Europe.

As well as the Dragons, our suppliers make a wide range of other traditional Chinese kites to the same high standard and we have selected some of the best designs for our range.

Chinese kites
Kites from China are radically different from the sport kites that we build in the UK.
They are steeped in tradition, use silk and bamboo construction - and make fantastic aerial sculptures - or decorations for the home.
They may look fragile, but both bamboo and silk are stronger weight-for-weight than steel and they are surprisingly durable.
