Laquerware can be found as far west as India’s Assam to the eastern shores of Vietnam, the region has been producing laquerware for centuries for daily as well as ritual tools and implements.

 

Lanna laquerware is hailed as some of the finest in the region, for its unique and attention to fine details. Today lower quality laquerware can be found in shops from hotel giftshops to Night Bazaar street stalls. But most of the high quality antique laquerware tends to be held in private collections around the world, with probably the largest collection being held in a private collection in Switzerland.
