Handmade Silk Figurine Ornament – Peking Opera Mask and Character
E5-002
Silk figurines are one of China's traditional handicrafts, originating in the Tang Dynasty. The making of silk figurines involves using high-quality materials such as silk, satin, gauze, and chiffon. Artisans meticulously craft them through over a dozen steps, including sculpting, painting, dressing, and adding headpieces and props, to create representations of historical ladies and opera characters. Folk fabric toys like "zhenzha" and "caizha" also share a deep connection with this traditional art form.
