Ceramics

Pottery products from Quang Ninh can be found in many countries throughout the world: France, Italy, Russia, Hong Kong and China.
When speaking of early Ha Long culture, ancient pottery products dated from around 4,500 years ago can still be found in Quang Ninh Museum. They are very beautiful, and famous for their design and decorative motifs. 
At the beginning of the 20th century, when the province’s first pottery furnaces were built, deep impressions were left on the art of pottery in Vietnam. This is mainly due to the original pale azure colour of the enamel used. Today, these furnaces are concentrated in the townships of Đông Triêu and Mao Khê.
The products are varied, with all kinds of pots, vases, bottles and statuettes. They are produced to meet both domestic and export requirements, and have contributed substantially to the socio-economic development of the province.
