Mr. Xin Di, reputed as "China's first person in 100-tiger poker work,"
displayed the newly completed "double happiness" gourd at his studio in
the east market of Nanjing's Confucius Temple on Oct. 19. This top-grade
gourd is 35 centimeter high; the bigger circle has a diameter of 16.5 cm
and the smaller one has a diameter of 10 cm. On the gourd was painted the
two Shenzhou VI astronauts and Golden Kylin, mascot of the 10th National
Games, expressing happiness of launch of Shenzhou VI and opening of the
10th National Games taking place on the same day.
