HÀ NỘI — A collection of worship objects has been recognised as the most unique gold-inlaid pottery artworks in the country by the Việt Nam Book of Records.

Entitled Phúc Lộc, the collection includes 42 pottery pieces such as vases, incense burners and dishes. Artist Phạm Đạt and co-workers spent 180 days working on it.

Đạt created the collection with traditional enamel and gold inlays, intended to bring good fortune to owners.

Đạt is the owner of Gia Tộc Việt Pottery Brand at the Bát Tràng Village on the outskirts of Hà Nội. He previously made some cracked-enamel vases that received the certification from the Việt Nam Book of Records as the biggest vases in the country.

He is devoted to preserving the traditional techniques of Bát Tràng Pottery Village and creating unique artworks representing Vietnamese culture. — VNS
