A craftsman showed off his incredible skills of making lacquer thread sculpture on vases in southern China.
The impressive video, filmed in the city of Xiamen, shows the man named Chen Wencai using thin mud strips to create patterns on a porcelain vase and plate, ashtray and a cattail leaf fan.
Lacquer thread sculpture is a traditional folk handicraft of southern China's Fujian Province, which dates back to 1400 years.
Chen said it took him at least three days to complete a simple lacquer thread sculpture and it can also take a long period up to several months if it was a complicated product.
The videos were filmed between February and July in 2019.
