Vietnamese pottery

Vietnamese pottery

Vietnamese pottery refers to pottery designed or produced in Vietnam. Vietnamese pottery and ceramics has a long history spanning back to thousands of years ago, including long before Chinese domination, as archeological evidence supports.

Much of Vietnamese pottery and ceramics after the Chinese-domination era was largely influenced by Chinese art, but has developed over time to be distinctly Vietnamese. [ [http://www.thingsasian.com/stories-photos/1194 The Evolution of Vietnamese Ceramics : ThingsAsian ] ] .

Vietnamese pottery and ceramics were an essential part of the trade between Vietnam and its neighbors during feudalistic times, throughout many dynasties.
