the queen
We are happy to announce that the Danish Queen and the Danish Crown Princess Mary visited our Vietnamese factory today during their state visit to Vietnam. The Queen had a short introduction to the history of Bat Trang and the collaboration between Anne Black and the local ceramic artisans and the Hang family. The visit were hosted by the co-owner and director of Khanh An Ceramics Mrs. Hang and Anne´s partner Jesper Moseholm.
Anne Black has worked in Vietnam since 2005 creating a production set-up for her hand made porcelain, with support from Danish development agency Danida. The Queen visit is a recognition of the successfull outcome of this development project and the achievements realized.
During the visit the Queen and Crown princess had the chance to see the entire factory and they participated in a small workshop session where they were drawing on unfired Anne Black porcelain. The final products will be handed over to the Queen after completion in the kiln.
