He succeeded in developing a large-scale fine-art furniture workshop thanks to an extensive renovation and considerable investment. Before achieving all this,he had gone through with many difficulties in his work. In 2000, Nguyen Tran Hiep established his own fine-art wood carving workshop, using all of his family’s savings and a loan from Bac Ninh province’s Youth Union after he had leaned about the craft from a famous artisan. Unfortunately,his products could not reach a wide range of customers. At that time,many other people in the village also failed to cam a decent living on making craft and they decided to quit their tradition job. People found jobs and made money many other ways but Hiep didn’t give up his dream of developing the tradition craft into a profitable business. He is spending the next years learning and researching the market to find out the most suitable markets for his products. He targeted two types of customers:the firstis foreign tourists and the second is traders from China, For the tourists, his workshop mainly produces small handicrafts and souvenirs, such as small animals, painting, tea trays, figurines and rasaries. For the Chinese cilents, his workshop makes products to order based on the current sample designs.At present,his workshop renamed Hiep Thang Fine arts Cooperative, provides stable jobs for 28 employees with an average income of 4-10 million dong/month. One of Nguyen Tran Hiep’s best works is “ Bat Long vong quang phat” which originated from the idea of the eight kings of the Ly dynasty incamating into eight dragons on a five-colour lotus tower.This work was made to wu hai.celebrate the 80" anniversary of the founding of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union and has been listed in the Vietnamest Record Book in 2011 as the best fine-art sculpture of ideology and art 1.When was Nguyen Tran Hiep recognized as the Vietnam’s Youngest Artisan? 2.Did he easily succeed in developing his fine-art furniture workshop? 3.How did Hiep tegorize his customers 4.What kinds of products does his workshop often produce for foreigners? 5.How many employes are there in Hiep Thang Fine arts Cooperative? 6.What was made by Nguyen Tran Hiep to celebrate the 80" annive Communist Youth Union’? sary of the founding of the Ho Chi Minh 3.

Recently, we made a trip to visit Dong Ho village with a desire to meet the old artisan — Nguyen Huu Sam. Just when we arrived villagers at the dyke in the village and talked with the villagers about the artisan, they immediately told us about him. The old house owned by the artisan is situated in a long alley of the village. On the walls of the house there are many folk paintings in different genres, from daily life paintings to landscape paintings shown in a set of “four seasons”. Mr. Sam told us about his past. When he was three years old, he was instructed in the craft of making Dong Ho paintings by his father. At five, he could help his father apply the Dong Ho paintings, and lear how to print the paper with proper colours. At seven, he was able to draw with a pen and make the most difficult samples. Years went by and the soul of Dong Ho folk paintings has kept seashell powder paint to the poonah-paper. In the 1940s, this craft flourished. At that time, he was assigned by his parents to take the paintings to the market for sale. Mr. Sam said that 17 families in the village have been engaged in making Dong Ho paintings. Artisan Sam has always been devoted to the making of Dong Ho paintings and has waited for opportunities to restore this traditional craft. In 1967, when the local authorities assigned him to restore the traditional genre of Dong, Ho folk paintings, he gathered 50 villagers with professional skills and collected hundreds of woodblocks to establish the Dong Ho Painting Cooperative. Thanks to his efforts, such famous painting as "Rat's wedding’, “Rooster”, “Scene of jealousy” and “Writing verses about precious flowers" have been revived.

Sedge Mat Craft Village In Tien Giang Province In the Mekong Delta,, Long Dinh village of Tien Giang province is famous for its traditional craft of weaving flowered mats. The mat's high quality makes them popular domestically, and they are also exported to markets, worldwide including Korea, Japan and America. In spite of its well-established reputation for this traditional craft, mat weaving only started here some 50 years ago. It was first introduced by immigrants from Kim Son, a famous mat weaving village in the northem province of ‘Ninh Binh, However, the technique of weaving sedge mats in Long Dinh, as compared with other places in the South, is somewhat different. Long Dinh branded mats are thicker and have more attractive colours and pattems. Weaving sedge mats is similar to growing rice. Long Dinh mat production mainly occurs during the dry season, from January to April. Weavers have to work their hardest in May and June, otherwise, when the rainy season starts in July, they will have to put off finishing their products til the next dry season. No matter how much work it requires, Long Dinh mat producers stick with this occupation, as it brings a higher income than growing rice. This trade provides employment for thousands of local labourers. At present, nearly 1,000 households in Long Dinh village live on weaving mats. To better meet market demands, Long Dinh mat weavers have created more products in addition to the traditional sedge mats. Particularly, they are producing a new type of mat made from the dried stalks of water hyacinth, a common material in the Mekong Delta Thanks to the planning and further investment, the mat weaving occupation has indeed brought in more income for local residents. Their living standards have improved considerably, resulting in better conditions for the whole village 1. Allof the following are true about the craft in Long Dinh EXCEPT that __.

Bau True pottery items are made from clay from the Quao River mixed with sand. Clay is collected from the river only once a year, each lasting for half a month.

Currently, people in Bau Truc pottery village still make pottery items in the traditional way. They do not use the wheel but the craftsmen have to turn around the products. The potters shape their products by skillful hands and feet around a pole-round pillar, rather than on the wheel.

Over the years, many of the crafts have developed, while some have disappeared altogether. The heart and soul of Hanoi’s vibrant old crafts are its craftsmen and women. One such couple are Nguyen Van Hoa and his wife Dang Huong Lan of Ba Dinh District’s Hang Than Street, They are among the few artisans still making elaborate cardboard masks in order to preserve the traditional culture. Although the work itself requires many steps, the materials required are simple: newspapers, glue, paint and paintbrushes. The first step entails tearing the newspapers to pieces and then using glue to combine them into a mold. The masks are painted one color at a time and then laid out to dry. Cardboard mask making is therefore dependent on dry weather and the couple can only make about 2,000 masks per festival. These are priced from VND25.000 to VND35,000 a piece, bringing in VNDSO-60 million -a sum is not commensurate with the efforts that go into making, these elaborate crafts Making swans out of cotton is also a traditional craft. Only artisan Vu Thi Thanh Tam of 79 Hang Luoe Street in the capital makes these swans. The swan frames are made of notebook paper and are stuffed with cotton, then a skillful artisan puts each layer of cotton on the swan frames and uses rice water to smooth them. The swan neck is made of steel wire and is covered by cotton. The finished product is placed in a rattan basket with cotton around and glass-beads and silk flowers are added for color. The continuity of traditional crafts adds to the capital’s attractiveness in the eyes of citizens and international visitors. Who plays role as the heart and soul of Hanoi’s crafts Which traditional craft do Mr. Hoa and his wife preserve? How many materials are there to make that craft? What are they?

Itis a set of typically seven wooden dolls of decreasing sizes that all fit inside of each other, one by one. Each stacking doll splits in half at the midsection and opens to reveal anothersmaller doll nested within. Each Matryoshka is handmade, for this reason, itis unique: you cannot find two Matryoshka identical Matryoshka is made by different dolls. The biggest doll is called “mother”, the smallest one is called seed. Originally, the biggest doll represents a strong female matriarch who is the main symbol of the Russian family. In itself, the doll fits inside little dolls which represent daughters and sons. For this reason, Matryoshka represents fertility and motherhood. ‘The Matryoshka is also the symbol of Russia: the big doll represents Russia mother, and in itself she hosts children, women, men, but also feelings like pain, happiness, joy. It is a mother who can host all these things. Matryoshka can represent also our life: we are like a big doll with other dolls inside which represent our stories, relationships, experiences. We are one person with different experiences. The seed represents our soul which is innocent and itis the real essence of ourselves. Russian doll matryoshka is composed of dolls of different sizes fitting into each other. Itis true that you can find two Matryoshka identical. Matryoshika is a symbol of motherhood and fertility of nature. The biggest doll represents a powerful woman in a family. Matryoshka shows the role of members in a family.
