A painted pottery figurine depicting two women holding hands, housed at the Luoyang Museum in Henan province, has recently gained widespread attention online. The artifact, dating back over 1,500 years, has drawn large crowds eager to snap a photo with its touching portrayal of an ancient "bestie" friendship.
Standing side by side at just 17 centimeters tall, the two figurines each wear their hair in double buns and are adorned in cross-collared, left-overlapping, wide-sleeved robes with long skirts. Their elegantly poised stance with hands clasped together proclaims an enduring bond, as if declaring, "We're the best of friends in the whole wide world!"
