Product Description This is a traditional garment of the Yao people, a minority ethnic group, handcrafted 60 years ago. Embroidery motifs of nature, animals, flowers, and the "Phoenix (Houou)" symbolize abundance and prayers for happiness. Geometric patterns and the "Manji" symbol are placed in the center of the garment, representing the cycle of life and good fortune. The patterns woven with red, black, green, and purple threads are like a poem depicting the rhythm of the earth and life. Small, low-purity silver pieces are finely sewn onto the lower part, emitting a soft, dull light with every movement. This is considered a "symbol of wealth" and was once worn only on special occasions such as festivals and weddings. The embroidery technique is "Hiranui" (flat stitch), and it is a very valuable piece completed stitch by stitch over several months. It is difficult to reproduce similar handwork today, and it has high value as a collection item.
