Unveil the Magic of the Chinese Mat Production
The magician presents a rolled Chinese bamboo or wicker mat, revealing a vibrant and enigmatic design upon unrolling. The mat is displayed clearly on both sides, ensuring that the audience sees there’s nothing concealed within or behind it.
As the mat is rolled back up, the magician keeps their hands and arms away from their body, eliminating any chance of body loads or deceptive practices. With a magical gesture, colorful silks are produced from the end of the rolled mat, creating a stunning visual effect.
This multimedia package includes a video, photo images, and a PDF guide, revealing how you can also produce a bottle of champagne (or a similar item) from the mat at the finale. While this is primarily designed as a stage effect, with practice, it can be performed surrounded, thanks to the ingenious techniques developed by the late Jack Griggs.
Rest assured, the Chinese mat is completely ordinary, with no hidden gimmicks. There are no body loads or sleeve steals involved, making this a truly remarkable and visually stunning trick!
