Introduction to auspicious oil-paper umbrellas: Deep in Tunpu, there is an auspicious oil-paper umbrella shop. Although the owner of the umbrella shop, Luo Kequan, is not from Tunpu, he was attracted by the craftsmanship of oil-paper umbrellas. He opened a shop to make and sell oil-paper umbrellas. He adheres to traditional handcrafts such as tung oil, stone printing, and threading. He makes more than 1,300 umbrellas a year. According to reports, after the Ming Dynasty, as a large number of Han people came to Anshun in various forms such as stationing troops, migrating, doing business, and being exiled, the Jiangnan oil-paper umbrella manufacturing technology was also introduced to central Guizhou.
