Văn Thanh: In the ancient language, "Văn Thanh" is often employed to depict refined beauty, elegant grace, and solemn nobility. Phúc Mã: "Phúc Mã" combines the meanings of "Phúc" (luck, happiness) and "Mã" (horse). This symbol is typically associated with success, strength, and auspiciousness. The image of the horse is considered to bring prosperity and protection.
In Vietnamese culture, the horse is one of the animals closest to humans. Swift and intelligent, the horse is not only an essential mode of transportation but also a loyal companion. Thus, people have used the horse's image to symbolize profound humanistic ideals. The horse motif is also linked to the traditional attire of hats, robes, and parasols in the tale of "paying respects to ancestors after achieving nobility," reminding those who studied far from home to always remember their roots when they find success. This exquisite silk scarf encapsulates the essence of cultural refinement intertwined with aspirations for happiness, prosperity, and respect for one's heritage through the symbolic "Văn Thanh Phúc Mã" design.
