(231226) -- JINGDEZHEN, Dec. 26, 2023 (Xinhua) -- Luo Xiaocong creates with a graver at his studio in Jingdezhen, east China's Jiangxi Province, Dec. 14, 2023.

After more than 20 years of trying, Luo Xiaocong can now create different patterns according to the thickness of the pigment by only using a razor blade a
