Jin-silk in tabby( jin-silk in the structure of warp-faced compound tabby) is very traditional in China. It indicates the highest level of silk production technique in ancient China. For many years scholars have discussed the type of loom probably used to produce this sort of silk,but so far they have not yet arrived a common understanding. This paper introduces the features of weaving jin-silk with duozongshi tihuaji( the loom with many lifting pattern rods or shafts) and dihuaben tihuaji( the loom with a low pattern draft,operated by one person),and believes that they were probably two different types of patterning looms used to produce jin-silk in tabby in ancient China. In general,using the former it is comparatively harder to produce jin-silk with a pattern of a large repeat in the warp direction. Jin-silk of this sort is easier to be produced with the dihuaben tihuaji,however,this loom is greatly affected by the warp count,and therefore is more suitable for producing jinsilk with a low warp count. The Hualouji( the loom furnished with a figure tower) was widely used after the weft-faced compound appeared.
