Jade

 

This is the famous "Happy Family Jade Ball"

It is carved out of a single piece of jade.  There are balls inside of each other.  Each ball represents a generation.

 

Each of these were carved out of an Olive Nut

 

 

These were carved out of the tusks of an elephant

 

 

 

 

 

These tapestry pictures were absolutely beautiful.  Some of them were really large.  Each picture was hand sewn.  The detail was amazing.

 

 

These were in the gift store

 

The painted pictures on these bottles were on the INSIDE of the bottle.  The gentleman was actually there painting them.
