New pair of Miao Hmong style hollow cone shaped earrings. Hollow cones are lighter in weight than they appear. Ear wires are a bit thicker in gauge than modern western gauge wires, but can easily be exchanged for smaller ones of your preference. Great for dance costuming or an everyday boho look.
The Miao are an ethnic group belonging to South China. Silver jewelry is a well-known traditional craft of the Miao people. Apart from being a cultural tradition, it also symbolizes the wealth of Miao women. It was especially important to wear heavy and intricate silver headdresses and jewelry during significant occasions and festivals, notably during weddings, funerals and springtime celebration. Silver jewelry is an essential element of Miao marriages, particularly to the bride. Miao families would begin saving silver jewelery for girls at an early age.
