Pan Wha

The meaning of Pan Wha


Heaven and earth or day and night - there are many things that cannot exist without each other. That is the principle of Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang are two opposing forces that are in harmony with each other. The Pan Wha motifs are based on these principles and thus primarily transport positive energy - but they can also convey a feeling of calm and relaxation.
