This item was found in a warehouse of a pottery workshop in Ho Chi Minh City and is said to be dead stock. Although they are the same type of product, there are considerable color irregularities, but the unevenness is quite charming. The color is cream-based with a green to khaki-like border, giving it a European vintage feel. Song Be ware is pottery that has been made for a long time in some areas of Binh Duong Province, Binh Phuoc Province, and Dong Nai Province in southern Vietnam. The paintings and patterns drawn by the artisans one by one are characteristic, and they are a mixture of various influences such as Vietnamese northern culture, Chinese culture, and French culture. Therefore, even though it is called Song Be ware, the designs are diverse. Each one doesn't feel particularly Japanese, but somehow feels nostalgic. I think that such a mysterious impression is also the charm of Song Be ware. Currently, due to government orders, wood-fired kilns have been abolished, and it is said that items with the unique texture of Song Be ware are hardly being made anymore. This color scheme has no pattern and I think it is a rare design. Because it is a vintage item, it is not a 'beautiful' tableware. There are cracks, warps, and chips. We hope that you understand this and that you will purchase it if you can appreciate it as part of its charm. There are initial imperfections such as fraying and small chips, so please purchase if you understand vintage and antique items.
