With natural material and patterns, handmade pottery products of Cham ethnic people in Binh Duc hamlet, Bac Binh district, Binh Thuan province, have made a name in the south central region (Photo: VNA)
Binh Duc pottery products have a beautiful light red colour thanks to being made of clay taken from the waterfront of a local river (Photo: VNA)
Instead of using spinning wheels to shape their products, artisans move their hands around the clay to create different shapes and patterns (Photo: VNA)
After finishing an item, the products are exposed to the sun until they are dry and are then burned (Photo: VNA)
