Chinese New Year Gifts!
On my way out, I found a lovely big envelope that sailed all the way from Asia. I got a nifty gift from my friend, Yi-Ying in Taiwan. I got a Tutelary God :D
A tutelary spirit or patron deity serves as the guardian of, or an entity to watch over and protect, a particular site, person kinda like Athena in Greek Mythology. This one comes out during Chinese Halloween and is the bouncer of Ghosts :D.
The detail is just insane. The folding wasn't too difficult but best crafted by small dexterous fingers.
Oi Chengister, please weigh in on this when the sun isn't shining so brightly in San Fran.
