MONTAGNARD BRACELET
These Montagnard Bracelets come from the Central Highlands of Vietnam where they are handcrafted by skilled
tribal craftsmen. Crafted in the old ways of sanding stone, file and etching blade. Admired for their beauty and
workmanship, these unique circlets or kong are more than simple trinkets. Every marking represents some aspect
of tribal identity, life, death or spirituality. The gift of one of these kong is considered a great honor and bestows
upon the recipient a lifelong commitment of friendship from the giver. This ritual has been an important part of
Motagnard culture for centuries and continues to this day in Vietnam.
CARE OF YOUR KONG
Never use harsh abrasive cleaners, solvents or sand paper to clean your Kong. This will erode the detail work on
your kong. Use a clean cloth and any brass polish such as "brasso". Using this method will give the kong a gold
like shine that will last for several days. When putting on the kong spread the kong as little as possible, they are
made from brass and will last a life time with care.
