Reed mat is a product made of reed, which is called reed weaving for short. Common reed weaving crafts are mainly reed mats. The older generation used reed mats as mats to sleep on the bed, but now they are mostly used to dry things.

There are many kinds of reeds, including white reed, big reed, yellow reed and green reed, among which white reed is the best. White-skinned reed, with straight stems, small nodes, thin skin and white color, is a good raw material for weaving mats. The famous reed mat in Baiyangdian, Hebei Province is made of this kind of reed, also called kang mat.
