Vietnam’s Youngest Artisan
Nguyen Tran Hiep, born in Northern province of Bac Ninh, has become the youngest artist
of Vietnam at the age of 37. 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 learned
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 earn 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
12


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 incarnating into eight dragons on a fivecolour lotus tower.This work was made to celebrate the 80th 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 categorize his customers?

4.What kinds of products does his workshop often produce for foreigners?
