Thai Benjarong - Unique Thai Porcelain

Benjarong - เบญจรงค์  (literally "five colours") is a Thai porcelain using the primary colours of black, green, yellow, red and white. The primary colours can be mixed to produce different shades or secondary colours.



Enamel colors are applied and overglazed, creating a swelling effect over the surface of the piece. The production process is incredibly labor-intensive, as each color is applied individually, and the piece is kiln fired after the application of each color. The firing process brightens the colors of the finished piece and adds to its beauty. Gold is also used in painting the porcelain.




Benjarong porcelain is made from bone china. Its attractiveness exists not only in the high-quality porcelain and fine shapes but also in the delicate colour patterns hand-painted on the surface.
