The Cultural Fusion Journey of the Hongying Earrings Collection

When a touch of red tassel, symbolizing Oriental auspiciousness, meets the sharp contours of a Western model, a encounter of cultural symbols unfolds. Hongying (red tassel), an element with profound significance in traditional Chinese服饰 (fushi, clothing), often appears in festive rituals and important occasions. Its bright red color is not only a visual expression of joy but also embodies the cultural code of warding off evil, attracting blessings, and conveying good fortune. Whether as the tassel on a child's "longevity lock" or an ornament on the phoenix crown and embroidered cape in traditional weddings, Hongying has always guarded Easterners' yearning for a better life with its lively posture.

Pattern Narrative: Abstract Translation of Traditional Symbols

The design of the pierced patterns is a "decoding game of cultural genes." Artisans extract core curves from the "continuous abundance" motif in paper-cut art, abstracting具象 (juxiang, concrete) fish patterns into flowing "S" lines. They also draw inspiration from the "ice crack" structure in window lattice, using diamond grids as the skeleton of the patterns. These traditional symbols undergo 85% simplification, retaining the rhythm of the original motifs while eliminating redundant details: for example, cloud scrolls common in paper-cuts are refined into single-line waves, and spiral patterns are simplified into interlocking geometric loops. When the wearer walks, light and shadow透过 (touguo, through) the pierced gaps cast patterns on the skin, as if ancient totems are reawakening in a modern context.
