Zorig Chuzum is the direct translation of 13 Arts and crafts of Bhutan. Bhutan have preserved and promoted these 13 Arts and Crafts. Trashiyangtshi is famous for the production of wooden containers (lacquer) referred to as Phob and Dapa. Visitors can gain first-hand access to and observe local artisans engaged in their traditional craft of carving out various types of containers at Zorig Chusum school of traditional arts. We can also visit some of the villages houses where we an see these works.
Hello,
I visited Zorig Chusum School in Trashi Yangtse in October 2024 and was really excited about it. I could see your students and their teachers (by the way I am a former teacher) at work. I could take photos and videos there.
Entering a shop with students´ works belonged among the highlilights of my visit. I bought a big wooden mask there, which is not coloured. I would be obliged to you if you would tell me what kind of wood is this mask made of.
Yours sincerely,
Vladislav Kejklíček
Dear Sir,
Blue Pine, walnut and some other woods, which I dont know the english name.
