Description: Traditional Chinese opera is one of the world"s oldest dramatic art forms that combines music, dance, acting, singing and sometimes even acrobats! Performances often leave audiences in awe as it is apparent that anyone who is performing has been trained for years and years in order to perfect their physiques and techniques. The level of detail that has gone into the costumes, wigs, headpieces and make up are unbelievable; and the fashion and make up industries today often draw inspiration from this ancient art form. Now you can take a piece of Chinese opera magic with you wherever you go - these traditional Chinese opera character bookmarks represent seven different characters and personalities often seen in Chinese opera performances, each play a vital role and have a different fate in the story they tell.
