“We walk alongside the farmers so that the value of Lepironia Grass brings them the best possible life, worthy of its true potential. I hope this story inspires other craft villages across Vietnam.”
~ Hồ Sương Lan (Founder/CEO of Maries)
The story of Lepironia Grass’s radiant transformation and Maries’ journey was recently featured in Tuổi Trẻ Newspaper. This was a great opportunity for us to share our efforts in preserving and developing a traditional craft village, helping people better understand the value of Lepironia Grass in daily life and fashion. This recognition is not only a source of pride for Maries but also an acknowledgment of the relentless dedication of Vietnamese artisans.
The article beautifully illustrates the journey of elevating the value of Lepironia Grass. As Tuổi Trẻ wrote: “We should take pride in Vietnamese culture. The farmers in craft villages have such skillful hands that the whole world must recognize.”
Once a simple material deeply embedded in the daily lives of people in Central Vietnam, Lepironia Grass has now been transformed by Maries and the local community into exquisite products, rich in cultural essence and creative artistry. Beyond traditional handicrafts, Lepironia Grass has now made its way onto the fashion stage, becoming a highlight in collections and major events. This marks a significant and proud step forward—not only affirming the value of Vietnamese craftsmanship but also opening greater opportunities for sustainable development in craft villages.
Being featured in Tuổi Trẻ is more than just a media milestone; it is a source of motivation for Maries to continue its mission. As the article emphasizes, “The real challenge is that artisans have yet to find ways to fully showcase their talent and earn the true value they deserve.”
We always strive to spread the value of Vietnamese craft villages, ensuring that artisans receive fair income for their skills and hard work.
