Hand Crafted Jewelery Collection

Hmong Artisans/dba Be Better, LLC was founded by Dr. Dia Cha, the first Hmong woman to receive a PhD in Anthropology in the United States. Since 2005, she has visited many remote Hmong villages in the highlands of China and Southeast Asia for research.

During those trips, groups of twenty or more Hmong women would surround Dia with their beautiful artwork, begging for her to buy from each of them so they could support their families. It was heartbreaking that Dia could not purchase needlework from everyone, so she started Hmong Artisans.

Hmong Artisans is a place for these remote artisans, and those inspired by them, to sell their one-of-a-kind, handcrafted works to shoppers around the world.
