Rice Steamer and Bowls
Mao Cheng, 2001
TSU MOV & TWJ TAIG
HMoob mothers often gifted large bowls and rice steamers for their daughters, knowing that their daughters will have to become a “Niam Tsev” (mother of the house) where they are the main homemaker. They want their daughters to be prepared to feed a growing family and offer hospitality to their extended family members.
