Artisan preserving traditional folk toy
For many generations of Vietnamese people, clay statues were once an indispensable folk toy of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Over the past time, with the appearance of modern and attractive toys, the traditional folk toy has gradually fallen into oblivion. At present, perhaps, Phung Dinh Giap from the northern province of Bac Ninh, is likely the last artisan, who stills crafts the traditional toy when the Mid-Autumn Festival comes.
