BauTruc pottery items are made from clay from the QuaoRiver  mixed  with  sand. Clay is  collected  from the river only once a  year, each lasting for  half a month. Clay is taken more or less depending on  the ability of each person. In the clay collecting season, local people try to take as much clay as they can   to store, for use in an entireyear.

Currently, people in BauTruc 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  their skillful hands and feet around a pole-round pillar, rather than on one wheel. From this step,  silky  clay block initially gradually forms a smooth rounded hollow block, then the formation of  flower vases,  or waterpots.

BauTruc’s craftsmen use wet cloths to make the product  surface smooth.  These items  are decorated  with seashells, snails or hand-made paintings featuring the daily life of BauTruc’speople.

The only long-term solution is make life in the areas more attractively, which would encourage people to stay here. This could be achieved by providing incentives to people to go and work in the villages. Moreover, facilities in the rural areas, so as transportation, health and educational services should be improved.
