In a small village outside Hanoi, the rhythmic splitting of bamboo echoes through the courtyards. Lan and her family have mastered the art of weaving bamboo and rattan. The bamboo is harvested by hand, soaked in water, and smoked over a fire to prevent termites. Lan’s innovative weaving patterns have elevated these humble agricultural baskets into high-end home decor pieces sought after globally.
The artisans here rely entirely on the ancient knowledge passed down from their ancestors. Working with handwoven baskets is not just a profession; it is an identity. Every piece created in Phu Vinh carries the soul of its maker. By choosing these authentic pieces, the world helps to ensure this tradition is not lost to industrialization.
