handmadefineartsの説明

绒花, rónghuā, an artificial handcraft head accessories made from materials such as silks and coppers. It existed since the Qin Dynasty. There are many known “brands” of ronghuas, such as Nanjing Ronghua. In the Tang era, Wu Zetian listed Nanjing Ronghua as a royal tribute to the Yangzhou area becoming a luxury only princes and princesses can use. Eventually, Nanjing Ronghua became something that represents Nanjing but also Nanjing's handicraft culture. But no matter what name ronghua is attached with, it is still homophonic for “glory (荣华, rónghuá)” and has a meaning of happiness and beauty “美好 (měihǎo).”
