CUFF:  

Description

Handcrafted silver cuffs from Zhaoxing Dong Village featuring traditional snake and fish motifs, symbols deeply rooted in Dong culture and the surrounding mountain landscape.

In Dong tradition, fish often represent abundance, fertility, prosperity, and the flow of life — closely tied to the rivers and rice terraces that sustain village life. Snakes are associated with protection, transformation, wisdom, and a deep connection to nature and ancestral spirituality.

Made by hand using traditional silversmithing techniques, each cuff carries slight variations and imperfections that reflect the individuality of the maker. 

  • One of a kind Sterling Silver handmade cuffs
  • Approximately 100 years old
  • Made in the Zhaoxing Dong village, Guizhou, China.

Our silk is naturally anti-microbial and very durable: you can wear it many times before washing. But when it's time, hand wash with cold water and a mild soap. Hang to dry. Steam to remove any wrinkles. If ironing, iron on low heat.
