Mao Hou : A very Interesting Handicarft of Old Beiji...
Mao hou, or the furry monkey, has a history of several hundred years in China. It is made of cicada shells and magnolia buds.
Look at how these artists stage the little monkeys in a huge set that describes everyday life in old Beijing.
Look at that! They are celebrating a wedding ceremony.
