The Miao wear pendants as silver jewels that usually go with Miao silver neckbands and hats.

 

 

Hanging from a big and heavy neckband, up to four layers of silver jewels can feature butterflies, leaves, bells, and images of Bodhisattva sitting on a blooming lotus. These are just a fraction of their great handmade silver jewels.

 

The fringes falling from Miao silver hats look like glistening silver beads.
