Peking Opera Dolls, also referred to as "silk dolls," are crafted primarily from China’s unique brocade fabrics, supplemented with materials such as wood and wire. This type of craftsmanship, known as "Soft Sculpture," vividly portrays the graceful and delicate forms of the characters. The facial features, painted with a fine brush, are full of expression and charm, bringing the figures to life as if they have stepped out of a painting. This is why they are also called "three-dimensional paintings."
The creation of a single Peking Opera Doll involves dozens of different craft techniques, representing a high degree of artistic and manual skill integration. Each small figure embodies a rich cultural heritage, vividly recording and reflecting the cultural appearances, clothing, and decorations of various historical periods in China. Each doll is a weighty piece of cultural history, possessing significant historical and artistic value.
