Carvings are made of natural bamboo and boxwood. Craftsmen adopt such techniques as line carving, surface carving and hollow-out carving. They also borrow from Chinese painting techniques as well to demonstrate a variety of subjects, such as landscapes, gardens, flowers and birds, and people. The products mainly include tea boxes, vases, pen holders, ashtrays, bamboo chopsticks, square bamboo canes and screens. Embodying refined carving techniques and profound artistry, the products are of high artistic value.
