  • Nine Dynastic Urns

    Emperor Minh Mạng had the Nine Urns cast to symbolize the eternal existence of the dynasty, the wealth and unity of Vietnam's territory, and the exquisite bronze casting skills of Vietnamese artisans. With 162 intricate carvings depicting various themes, along with the profound values they embody, the Nine Urns transcend national boundaries. The Nine Urns are a unique and valuable source of information for Vietnamese and foreign researchers, as they hold historical, cultural, educational, geographical, feng shui, medical, and calligraphic significance. In particular, they highlight the status of women under the feudal system, as vividly illustrated by the image of the Vĩnh Tế Canal on the Cao Đỉnh (High Urn). Having stood alongside the dynasty's rise and fall, the Nine Urns have remained intact for nearly 200 years, despite the vicissitudes of time and the changing tides of history. They are a rare surviving treasure, symbolizing the royal power and the existence of feudal dynasties.
