Here are some of the main reasons that make it stand out:<\/p>\n<ol start=\"1\">\n<li data-list=\"number\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_A_Long_History_of_Traditional_Vietnamese_Ceramics\"><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0A Long History of Traditional Vietnamese Ceramics<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Pottery-making in Vietnam dates back a long time-all the way to the Neolithic period, around 10,000 years ago. The craft continued to grow throughout different historical periods. More so after the 10th century, when Vietnam had become an independent nation and began having dynasties of its own.<\/p>\n<p>Even today, thousands of tiny villages across the country have generations of artisans who dedicate their lives to perfecting this craft. These artisans not only create beautiful objects; they also infuse every object with story and tradition.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li data-list=\"number\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_Cost-Effective_without_Compromising_Quality\"><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0Cost-Effective without Compromising Quality<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Indeed, the most compelling argument for purchasing <strong>Vietnamese pottery<\/strong> ware lies in cost-effectiveness without any loss of quality. Workers in Vietnam\u2019s pottery industry usually earn around <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/en.sggp.org.vn\/pottery-artisans-and-skilled-workers-struggle-to-keep-profession-post116457.html\" data-lark-is-custom=\"true\">VND 10 to 15 million a month <\/a><\/strong>(about $430 to $650). In comparison, workers in China can earn between <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salaryexpert.com\/salary\/job\/pottery-designer\/china\" data-lark-is-custom=\"true\">CNY 13,400 and 23,400 a month <\/a><\/strong>(around $1,870 to $3,270). That\u2019s about 4 to 5 times more. As a result, buyers have the opportunity to purchase <strong>Vietnamese ceramics<\/strong> cheaply and to make better margins, especially when ordering in bulk.<\/p>\n<p>All the same, cheaper doesn\u2019t always mean compromised quality. The majority of Vietnam\u2019s big producers nowadays impose stringent quality control and implement new technology to guarantee that items can achieve international standards of durability, heat resistance, and safety for food. ISO 9001, ASTM C1161, and EN 12875 standards are becoming more prevalent in the best producers.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li data-list=\"number\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_Favorable_Policies_from_the_Government\"><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0Favorable Policies from the Government<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Vietnam\u2019s government is also playing an active role in supporting the growth of the pottery industry. One major initiative is <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/english.luatvietnam.vn\/decision-no-801-qd-ttg-approving-the-program-on-conservation-and-development-of-vietnams-craft-villages-in-225084-doc1.html\" data-lark-is-custom=\"true\">Decision No. 801\/QD-TTg <\/a><\/strong>&#8211; a national program focused on promoting handicraft exports.

Most of the Vietnamese pottery made here includes water jars and household containers, usually crafted from red clay.<\/p>\n<p>What makes Phu Lang pottery special is its unique glaze. Artisans use a technique that creates crackled surfaces with colors like brown, dark yellow, or even black. The look is inspired by the texture and color of eel skin, which gives the pottery a very earthy, natural feel.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Thanh_Ha_near_Hoi_An\"><\/span>Thanh Ha (near Hoi An)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Thanh Ha has been producing ceramics since the 15th century and is known for its rustic and old-style pottery.

If you\u2019ve handled sea freight before, FOB might work well since the supplier takes care of things until the goods are loaded onto the ship in Vietnam, and then it\u2019s your turn.<\/p>\n<p>But if you\u2019d rather keep things simple, DDP is the easiest option. Essentially, the supplier handles almost everything, including insurance, until the pottery reaches your warehouse.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li data-list=\"number\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Know_the_Required_Documents_for_Pottery_Imports\"><\/span>Know the Required Documents for Pottery Imports<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Like with any export, you\u2019ll need the right set of papers to clear customs.

For example, in the EU or UK, you\u2019ll need an <strong>EORI number<\/strong>, and in the US, you\u2019ll need to file an Importer <strong>Security Filing<\/strong> before the ship leaves port.
