Another famous art form is wood block printing. It is actually a design or picture that is engraved into a block of wood and then painted. The paint is done on a sheet of paper and a stunning portrait comes out. The famous "Mother-of-pearl" inlay was originated in Vietnam on around 1,000 years ago. Pieces of multi-colored mother-of-pearl cases are inserted in wooden boxes, bowls, furniture and other things. Silkscreen painting is also famous among the Culture of Vietnam.
