"The horse, with beauty unsurpassed, strength immeasurable, and grace unlike any other, still remains humble enough to carry a man upon his back."
- Amber Senti
The Horse embodies companionship, freedom, loyalty, and triumph.
BẠC’s 2026 Lunar New Year Limited Collection, “Knight of the Southeast”, is a special celebration of the Horse, a cherished companion that has shaped the course of human history.
The “Knight of the Southeast” Collection introduces a refined mini-series of jewelry inspired by the unnamed steed in the Vietnamese folk tale of Thánh Gióng (Saint Gióng). The legend of Thánh Gióng (/zawŋ˧˥/) tells of a giant, mythical Vietnamese hero who grew from infancy to a towering warrior to save his kingdom from northern invaders, using magical iron armor, an iron horse, and bamboo sticks as weapons before ascending to heaven, symbolizing Vietnam's fierce spirit of defense and unity.
Was Saint Gióng the only being who brought triumph to our kingdom?
Without his faithful steed, we believe Saint Gióng could not have won the war nor delivered the kingdom to freedom. His unnamed horse was far more than a hidden hero; it stood as a symbol of liberation, courage, and triumph, mirroring Gióng himself. He was the greatest companion Gióng could ever have wished for.
We call him the Knight of the Southeast.

People who were born in the Year of the Horse are vibrant, sociable, sentimental, and naturally driven toward success.
Each piece blends contemporary design with BẠC’s signature hand-sculpted intricacy from traditional Vietnamese patterns and Heritage motifs, creating a modern homage to the noble Horse.
