Discover the Living Heritage of Handmade Pottery in Hoi An

Hoi An is celebrated globally for its ancient streets, enchanting lanterns, and rich cultural tapestry. Yet, nestled within this timeless charm is a craft that embodies the very essence of the city’s soul: handmade pottery. At Thanh Thi Pottery, we are proud to be a living testament to this tradition, offering more than just souvenirs—we offer a connection to centuries of artistry and a piece of our heritage.

The Thanh Ha Connection: A Story Shaped by Clay

Our pottery carries the heart of Thanh Ha, a village with a 500-year history of ceramic making, located just a short distance from the ancient town. While Thanh Ha is renowned for its unglazed terracotta, Thanh Thi Pottery takes this tradition and infuses it with a modern, artistic sensibility. We use the same high-quality clay sourced from the Thu Bon River, but we innovate with firing and glazing techniques to create a collection that is both a tribute to the past and an expression of the present.

Our artisans, many of whom come from generations of potters, shape each piece by hand on a traditional potter’s wheel. This meticulous process ensures that every item is unique—no two bowls, vases, or plates are ever exactly alike. The subtle variations in form, texture, and color are not flaws; they are the marks of human touch, the signature of a craftsman pouring their soul into their work.
