    (230216) -- YUNCHENG, Feb. 16, 2023 (Xinhua) -- This combo photo shows Lin Tao (L) and his father Lin Yongmao making a Chengni inkstone in Guangcun Village of Xinjiang County in Yuncheng, north China's Shanxi Province, Nov. 14, 2015 (upper) and Lin Tao (L) communicating with his son Lin Xiaolin on the craft of making Chengni inkstone in Guangcun Village, Feb. 14, 2023 (lower, photo taken by Yang Chenguang). Chengni inkstone, one of the "four famous inkstones" in China, is known for its fine texture which can reduce harm done to the brush. Due to various reasons, the time-honored craft of making Chengni inkstone had once been lost and was later brought back by Lin Yongmao and his son Lin Tao in Xinjiang County. It takes over a year and more than 10 steps to make a Chengni inkstone. In 2008, the craft of making Chengni inkstone was listed as one of China's national intangible cultural heritages. As the third-generation inheritor of the craft of making Chengni inkstone, Lin Xiaolin knew the craft well
