🌊 Phoenix Puzzle | Miao Batik Earrings
Like frozen ripples etched in indigo — these asymmetrical Miao batik earrings are carved from stories, not molds. The left earring tells of river deltas and rebirth; the right, of phoenix wings and ancestral charms. Made entirely by hand, no two pairs share the same cracks — just like no two storms hit the same hill twice.
🔮 Cultural Significance
• Cracked Indigo Batik: Symbol of transformation and memory, drawn with 0.1 mm wax cracks
• Phoenix Feather Shape: Inspired by traditional Miao legends of rebirth and renewal
• Asymmetry: Reflects the Miao belief in duality — mountain and water, past and present
👐 Materials & Craftsmanship
• Metal: Nickel-free alloy, oxidized for a vintage silver look
• Batik: Hand-drawn on cotton, dyed with natural indigo using traditional resist-dyeing
• Details: Tasseled bells, heart-shaped chain link, engraved floral topplate
Each pair is handcrafted by local women artisans in Guizhou, through a cooperative effort with Miaoshow.
