The Design
About Hmong Silver Arfleifðarpils
Virt í Qing og Ming tímabilunum njóta Mamian arfleifðarpilsarnir ástúðar fyrir tákn þeirra um kraft og styrk. Tvær framúrskarandi handverksgreinar í austurlenskri sögu: perlumóðurinleggingar og Hmong silfursmíði, leggja grunninn að þessari hönnun. Að eiga Mamian arfleifðarpils er jafngilt því að eiga hluta af austurlenskri leynd. Það er hátíð náttúruundra, mannlegrar snilligáfu og tímalausrar leitar að fegurð sem nær út fyrir öll tímabil og menningarheima.
