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 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 five-colour 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.
