My brother just brought back four of these after spending 10 weeks in China. He sent them to me (he's in NJ and I am in NC) but while talking to him later to give him my thanks, he told me how they were the one thing he liked the best of all that he carried back with him. So, I surprised him by sending them back to him (he had sent me a number of other things). Last week, I received from him one of the papercuts matted and framed. Yea, so he surprised me too!!! We had a good laugh about all this. Love that guy.
