Michael Clonaris , if you do not know this is a gold bar joss paper for the dead it's not something people fold to look beautiful ...........Lol
Most Asian culture there's a few types of joss paper they use when someone in the family die . Dead or alive everyone needs cash for their own personal use ........Yep !
