The Pictures above show the Southern Vietnam pottery was very popular in the early ‘20s to the late ‘70’s in BienHoa, DongNai, BinhDuong and LaiThieu areas. It was famous for the time consuming hand etching techniques depicting elaborate Vietnam’s cultural and historic themes. After the Vietnam War ended in the mid 70’s, the etching technique diminished as the older generation died without much newer generation apprentice. It is now be came collectible item since.
These vases that you see here are the only few in a extensive collection of DongNai- BienHoa Ceramic Vases that Ms. My Thuan has been devoting her tremendous effort to collect to preserve the golden history of the South Vietnamese ceramics.
Amazingly survived the war, the vases made their ways to the land of freedom , for each design , each of these article is almost the only one piece of art that is remained in the entire world !
The skilled artisans of the South Vietnam, and the Republic of Vietnam's moral values do make these vases become highly desired among noble collectors, and treasure hunters today.
As My Thuan's wish, this entire collection will be donated to one of the art museum in the country.
