Local villagers create paper flowers as offerings to their ancestors. Today, their products have become ornamental items, especially during Tet, the country’s most important traditional festival.
The creation of paper lotus flowers requires the highest level of craftsmanship, with several households in the area capable of producing these intricate products.
The village’s products have been showcased at Hue festivals, Ao Dai festivals, cultural events, and exported to various countries including the United States, France, and Japan.
The price of the paper flowers ranges from VND5,000 for a pair of simple flowers like roses, daisies, and orchids, up to VND20,000 for a lotus. (Photo: Baovanhoa.vn)
