theMay – Handcrafted Vietnamese brocade accessories

Brocade is an inherent part of Vietnamese culture. Made from Vietnamese hand-woven brocade, theMay products will bring to you the new definition of self-confidence, not to follow a trend but to create your own.

theMay’s vision:

Traditional craftsmanship, especially that of ethnic minorities, despite its richness and uniqueness, has been struggling to survive under the drastic impact of globalization. Deeply conscious of that, we established theMay with the vision to spread the beauty of ethnic minorities. theMay aims to help these cultures reassert themselves in the face of our ever-changing world.

theMay’s products:

To accommodate the need of self-expression, theMay provides a wide range of brocade accessories as an instrument to revive interest in this unique but dying material. Brocade in and of itself is a raw diamond, but once incorporated with other materials, it becomes elegant and sophisticated. One can find the beauty of theMay’s handcrafted products not only in its modern interpretation of traditional fabrics, but also in the cultural narratives.
