Vietnamese Rice Handkerchief: The Fusion of Two Traditional Crafts
The Red River Delta is the cultural cradle of Vietnam. Here, the Vietnamese people have lived for centuries, building a rich and profound cultural heritage. It is also in this region that the ancient craft of silkworm cultivation, silk reeling, and weaving has flourished for thousands of years, giving rise to famous silk villages such as Van Phuc and Nha Xa.
Among them, Nam Cao village is renowned for a distinctive type of silk fabric. At Nam Cao, silk threads are carefully hand-rolled to create a special “Đũi” silk fabric. This traditional silk is crafted entirely by hand and used to make various products, including silk scarves and handkerchiefs. Unlike glossy silk, “Đũi” silk has a rustic, natural texture while still retaining all the luxurious qualities of silk: lightweight, highly absorbent, and gentle on the skin. It is a premium product with character.
Bá Minh Silk is the first brand to craft handkerchiefs from “đũi” silk!
After thorough research, Bá Minh Silk discovered that this fabric is truly precious. Transforming it into a handkerchief (balm handkerchief) creates a product like no other. This innovative handkerchief, made from this rare material, is a first in the market.
The Vietnamese Rice Handkerchief boasts exceptional qualities
Its rustic, approachable appearance reflects the Vietnamese spirit. Yet beneath this simple look lies the high-end nature of silk: excellent absorbency, quick moisture evaporation, and long-lasting freshness throughout the day. The more you use it, the softer it becomes. Its skin-friendly silk threads make it suitable for all skin types.
Traditional hand embroidery enriches the handkerchief
To enhance both aesthetics and cultural significance, Bá Minh Silk has applied traditional Vietnamese embroidery patterns to the handkerchief. Anyone who loves embroidery is surely familiar with Quat Dong village, which has preserved over 400 years of hand embroidery tradition and elevated it to the level of fine art.
By incorporating these handcrafted patterns onto the handkerchief, the product transforms into a unique piece imbued with Vietnamese character.
This embroidered silk handkerchief represents the pinnacle of two traditional crafts: Nam Cao “đũi” silk and Quat Dong embroidery. Bá Minh Silk takes pride in sharing these handkerchiefs, adorned with Vietnamese motifs, with the world—promoting Vietnamese culture globally.
