About Everything Kombeya Pirtûkan

Her tişt komeke ji du pirtûkan e li ser çanda kevneşopî ya Çînî. Diwanzdeh şaxên erdî naveroka bingehîn pêk tînin, ku digel werzan, demên rojane û zodyaka Çînî hatine hev kirin. Her pirtûk pîvana 170 bi 300 bi 25 mîlîmetreyan e û ji dar û kaxezeke taybet hatiye çêkirin. Cildkirin şêwaza katkirinê ya pirtûkên kevnare yên Çînî dişopîne, ji ber vê yekê rûpel bi hêsanî têne zivirandin û dikarin bi awayekî beşî an tevayî vebin. Hilberîn laser-kolan, laser-çapkirin, xêzkirin û germ-mohrkirinê vedihewîne. Sêwirana rûpelê wêneyên bi destan hatine xêzkirin, hunera tekstûrê û tonên gewrî yên bilind bi kar tîne.
