[QUOTE="georgeingraham, post: 3661615, member: 6261"]Thank you for that link Figtree3. Perhaps Pu Tai is giving candy, and because of the importance he placed on giving candy, this was made extra large to signify that, or perhaps it is a box of candy as compared to just one piece. Any way, thank you.. I like the whole concept and think it fits well and am going to use it within my final description writing for this piece.. On a side note, picked up on a couple of features about the boys clothing. The piece around his neck and over his shoulders is called a "collar or piling", usually worn during ceremonies. The foot ware are called "hanfu boots/shoes" I searched high and low last night trying to figure out what he has attached to his back, but no luck.. Thank you again Figtree[/QUOTE]
