Chinese bamboo carving

I tried to get the story behind this from the lady I bought it from, but she spoke very little english. Looks like a caterpillar pupa to me though :)

If only I spoke Chinese... I could share that lovely story with you all. Next time I'll have to bring Jeff's mom, she speaks Cantonese :)

Looks like a Chrysalis, perhaps a large carved butterfly will emerge :-) a bit of chinese magic
