Handmade Pottery in Koh Kret island at Nonthaburi Province in Thailand

Koh Kret pottery is an ancient handicraft made by Mon people in Koh Kret. Mon people are renowned for their expertise in making pottery, which has been passed down from their ancestors. Ko Kret is a small island in the Chao Phraya River, just north of Bangkok, Thailand. It’s known as a settlement of the Mon people, whose famed terracotta is on display in the Kwan Aman Museum. This traditional earthenware is still produced in potteries along the river. On the northeastern tip of the island, Wat Poramai Yikawat is an important Buddhist temple featuring a reclining Buddha and a leaning stupa.
