Care & Maintenance
Care & Maintenance
Keep Dry & Oil-Free
Ronghua is delicate — avoid contact with oil and water. Do not press hard when wearing. Never wash with water!
Prevent Crushing & Impact
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct light. Ronghua can be kept on a jewelry stand or inside a jewelry box.
- Store each piece separately — do not pile them together, as they can easily lose their shape!
- In humid climates (especially during Southern China's damp seasons), the petals of flat-pressed Ronghua may soften as air moisture rises. This is completely normal and will not affect use.

The Making of Ronghua
— From Silk Thread to Living Flower
Spinning the Soul
Finest silk is selected, boiled, stripped from the cocoon, and drawn into velvety strands as fine as hair. The thickness of each strand determines the texture of every petal — guided solely by the maker's touch, with no mold to follow.
Twisting the Bone
Brass wire is spiraled together with silk velvet strands — copper for the skeleton, silk velvet for flesh. Twist too loosely and the petals collapse; twist too tightly and they stiffen. Between too loose and too tight lies the craftsman's sense of proportion, honed over decades.
Coloring by Hand
The petal's gradient is not printed — it is hand-dipped. The transition from deep violet to creamy white depends on the maker's fingers controlling how long and at what angle the strand enters the dye. Within the same design, each bloom carries a subtle shift in color — not a flaw, but the breath of handmade craft.
Shaping the Petal
With scissors, the velvet strand is trimmed into the curve of a petal — one cut per petal, each stroke irreversible. How many petals does an iris require? The answer lives in the craftsman's heart, not on any blueprint.
Assembling the Bloom
The trimmed petals are glued and assembled one by one, paired with stamens, leaves, and pearl tassels. A single Ronghua bloom goes from nothing to being through over a dozen steps and hours of handwork — only to blossom at last in your hair.
