A technical worker arranges pretreated chrysanthemum rocks in Xuan'en county, Hubei province on March 9. The gray rocks, which contain chrysanthemum-shaped crystals inside, are found only in China, but the art is not widely known. The rocks are then carved around the petals. The carvers make a meager profit from their difficult work under rough conditions. [Photo/Xinhua] |
