Fengxiang colored sculptures are mainly distributed in Liu Ying Village of Chengguan Town and its surrounding areas. It is said that during the Ming Dynasty, soldiers from the Sixth Battalion of the First Division of Zhu Yuanzhang's army were stationed here, and this village was named the Sixth Battalion. These soldiers from Jiangxi province have the skill of making pottery. When they are free, they mix with mud, knead out various forms of masons as toys and paint them for people to see. After the sergeants became local residents, some people returned to their pottery-making skills before joining the army, using local clay and mud to knead clay figurines, making molds and painted dolls, and then selling them at major temples. Local villagers buy clay sculptures and put them at home to pray for their children, protect students, ward off evil spirits, restrain themselves and collect happiness.
Liu Ying Village's bodiless painted clay dolls are famous and passed down from generation to generation. They have become a unique boutique in China folk art and enjoy a high reputation at home and abroad.
