捏面人儿 miàn rénr
Dough figurine
Using glutinous rice flour mixed with various colors, the craftsman kneads with the fingers, and creates curves with a bamboo knife. They then decorate and paint the ornament. The sculpture can last for a long time. Its’ not to eat. Although there are dough figures you can eat; just ask first.
