Quang Duc pottery was once famous.

Phu Yen Museum is displaying the theme “Quang Duc Pottery, Once Glorious”, attracting the attention of ancient pottery lovers, especially the pottery of a craft village on the lower reaches of Cai River (Ngan Son River) in An Thach Commune, Tuy An District, with a history of more than 300 years of formation and development. According to researchers, a factor contributing to the popularity of ancient Quang Duc pottery is the identifying characteristics of the oyster glaze pottery and the glaze colors that no product is the same as another.

The exhibition took place from May 30 to July 30, with hundreds of Quang Duc ceramic artifacts, from lime pots (used to hold lime for chewing betel), jars (used to brew wine), wine jars (used to hold wine in ceremonies and daily life) to household items, basins for holding water, lotus pots... made of unglazed fired ceramic. The body of Quang Duc ceramics (glazed line) has a unique shell mark, glaze and each product is unique, dating from the 18th-20th century. In addition to ceramic products, the exhibition also collects many documentary images, partly showing the value of Quang Duc ceramic cultural heritage.

Delegates attending the workshop on Preserving and promoting the cultural heritage value of Quang Duc pottery organized by the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism visited Phu Yen Museum and listened to explanations about Quang Duc pottery.
