Benjarong House and Museum
11:15 After a relaxing journey along the tranquil canal from the sugar palm production site, we got back in the van and headed to the Benjarong House and Museum. The museum displays a stunning collection of ceramics enameled with five primary colours. All pieces are carefully made and hand painted. Luckily, we were allowed to get a closer look as the skilled artisans carefully applied each colour on the different objects.
Surprisingly, it takes three days to complete a Benjarong pot! Without question, if you would like to have your own design on a beautifully painted Benjarong it might take up to six months due to the long waiting list. However, if you particularly like the work and would like to buy some for home decoration or as a souvenir, some items on display at the entrance are available for sale.
