The country was renowned for its high-quality silk, which was highly sought after in international trade. This woman's dedication to the craft reflects the rich cultural heritage and the importance of silk weaving in Vietnamese history. The weaving process was a labor-intensive and time-consuming task, requiring great skill and patience.
