Qiang Silver Hair Brooch

Handmade fine silver hair brooch with hand carved floral designs, silver hairpin, chains and hanging pendant with flower/butterfly design.

Silver has very strong cultural value amongst the minority peoples –see our Stories on Silver and Miao, Tibetan and Qiang people.
Craftspeople use Fine 99.9% pure silver both for its softness and the cultural value of pure silver.
By contrast Sterling silver is defined as only 92.5% purity: our silversmiths do not apply a Sterling silver hallmark!
