Huangping Clay Whistles
Huangping clay whistles were first created by the Miao elder Wu Guoqing. Made from clay through pounding and molding, they take the shapes of various animals such as birds, beasts, insects, and fish. The hollow whistles have holes that allow them to produce sound when blown. After the clay forms are fired in a kiln, they are painted with vivid and exaggerated designs in bright colors, making them especially popular with children.
