NDO - Since it debuted nearly 20 years ago, Brocade Weaving Cooperative of Hop Tien Commune, Quan Ba District, Ha Giang Province, has become an established address for traditional brocade products among shoppers from both at home and abroad.
The cooperative’s products include brocade bags, wallets, purses, pillow covers, wraps, and clothing, which are decorated with typical patterns of the H’mong ethnic people. Each pattern has its own meaning, for example, the spiral represents a single mother while symmetrical flowers indicate a happy family, thus they are often applied on pillow covers.
