Craftsman Kong Bin carves eggshells in Yaodu district, Linfen city, Shanxi province, May 23. He has been devoted to eggshell carving since he was a child and won gold at the Shanxi Provincial Culture Industry Expo. He is now creating eggshell carvings to promote traditional culture in Linfen city. Eggshell carving, a tradition that originated from the custom of giving carved eggs as gifts at festivals, ceremonies, and parties, is often called "the most fragile art" as it requires extreme precision and care during and after the carving process.
