Description
This silk tiger head bag is designed as a three-dimensional folk-art accessory. The face is assembled in layers: embroidered eyes and brows, fabric appliqué, stitched whiskers, teeth, pom-poms and large textile flowers all sit above the silk body. The tiger has long functioned as a protective image in Chinese folk culture, associated with courage and the ability to dispel harmful forces. The soft drawstring form keeps the piece wearable, while the intense color and sculptural face preserve the expressive character of a traditional guardian motif.
