Family carries on tradition of making Miao wooden combs

The wooden combs of the Miao ethnic group have a history of more than 1000 years. It is a necessity for Miao women. Different branches of the Miao ethnic group require different styles of wooden combs to match their costumes. The patterns on the wooden combs are often exquisitely carved and also record the information about the wars and migrations of the Miao people in their early years of history. [Photo/Chinanews.com]
