Chinese craftsman wins international clients with woodwork

"Each piece is tailor-made; it's nearly impossible to find an identical product on the market," Ren explained. "The price per order attracts quality customers who place large orders."

Last year, his craft earned him over 5 million yuan ($688,000) — a success he attributes to his meticulous attention to detail and commitment to perfection.

"We work with over 10 different types of wood. Every step, from design and cutting to carving, coloring and painting, is crucial," he said.
