Maybe you could add to them with your own design....really lovely technique. Perhaps an internet and library search could prove fruitful.

That is awesome! Do you know of any Vietnamese people or where there are any socials such as a church? I'm sure there would be someone there that can help you!

I have 4 similar blocks that I just 're-found' in my stash this weekend..wondering myself what to do with them - mine are all different - and not even all the same colors...I agree - the workmanship is incredible, but just couldn't figure out what to do with them...

I have a couple of similar pieces purchased from a shop that carries hand made items from the Hmong people. I will never even attempt such a thing, I'll just admire it!

Nancy Zieman had a show on with the Vietnamese style- Hmong, which is what this is.

I was blown away by it! If you can track down that show- watch it. The history is awesome.

You have genuine works of art! I'd put them under glass and frame them for display!
