These products are handmade by craftsmen at the Intangible Cultural Heritage Production Studio.

It's thought that pottery making techniques were around in Yunnan Province 4,000 years ago, and the Dai ethnic group has some pretty comprehensive techniques.

The "kick wheel" method is a traditional one, where you turn it by kicking with your feet. By making slow, steady movements, you can produce uneven, warm vessels that show the hand of man.

What's more, the firing process in a gas kiln at 1,300 degrees Celsius, combined with modern technology, preserves the traditional texture and modern colours. The distinctive shape and patterns give this piece a classic look, while still feeling fresh and vibrant. It's perfect for displaying flowers or as a decorative piece.

The workshop is in the Mekong River basin, which gives it a Southeast Asian vibe.
