And three-quarters of a century later years said goods mostly made in China. With "fawn" from China, perhaps, faced any of us. However, the same quality product and quite a lot done there.
In particular, 60 percent of world production (!) Copies of paintings by famous artists accounts for a small (by Chinese standards) Dafen village Buji in the suburbs. Almost monopolists.
