For example, the "Butterfly Mother's Guardian" pendant stitches the legend of the Butterfly Mother, who nurtures all things in ancient Miao songs, into a portable item. The original handmade cat backpack is sewn by Bouyei ethnic embroiderers, with every detail bringing ancient legends to life in a playful way.
