The first place you should visit when you come to Vietnam is the Bat trang ceramic village. It’s an old handicraft village in Hanoi. You will find many interesting and well-designed ceramic products there. Vietnam vases are a well known product. And you will find many beautiful models of them in this village. You will easily notice that these ceramic products are not the same in design. But they share one common thing. And it’s the colorful decoration.
Have you ever heard about bamboo products of Vietnam? How about a bowl made of bamboo? The main materials used are bamboo patterns and silk so that the craftsman could shape them into any form easily. There is a slight difference in price of bowls with and without silk decoration. These bowls are perfect to store fruits or you can use them as a nice decoration in the living room.
A great traditional handicraft product is the Vietnam taffeta silk handbags. And perhaps the origin of these products is from the silk painting handicraft. Because silk is a sign of nobility and is not that hard to turn into other products. And in Vietnam, there are many craftsmen who chose silk as their primary material to produce top quality products. The normal colors of those handbags are black and white. And you can easily notice them because they have beautiful decorations on them.
Decorative masks are the final things I want to show you. It’s really easy to notice them as they often have funny and colorful emotion decorations on them. The material used here is wood. The craftsmen will carve the wood by hand to make them easier to craft out the products. Next, vibrant colors will be used to decorate them.
The above things are not all handicraft products of Vietnam. But I’m sure if you’re interested in them, you will find out more on your trip to Vietnam.
