The intricate art of painting on the inside of glass bottles and ornaments began centuries ago in China. Through a tiny opening, skilled artists delicately paint fine details of images, thereby preserving the poetry of daily life. Depending on its intricacy, one ornament can take up to several weeks to complete.
