Rercently, Vietnamese traditional art of lacquer, SON MAI, has become well known internationally. But
few people are aware of the fact that most
of the lacquer products on the market, both local and foreign,
are mass produced without traditional craftsmanship using chemical
lacquer.
"Cay Son" will permit you to experience Vietnam's natural lacquer and traditional SON MAI. Our gallery and showroom present genuine
SON MAI pieces by skilled craftsmen and talented
artists. Further, our private museum will
assists you in understanding the history,
science, and fascinating techniques of SON MAI . We even have workshop where you can join
and learn the SON MAI painting. Besides this regular workshop activity,
we occasionally organize special programs
by guest artists, craftsmen and designers.
Our aim is to enlighten people's awareness
regarding traditional Vietnamese SON MAI and to help it preserve this historic art
form and hopefully innovate a new tradition
of SON MAI.
