These headpieces use various exquisite materials and unique designs to add a strong artistic atmosphere to the Qing Dynasty palace.

In summary, traditional Chinese female headpieces are an important part of Chinese culture.

They not only have high artistic value but also carry rich historical significance and cultural connotations.
