Labu Sayong
Labu Sayong is a type of pottery and earthenware, bottle gourd-shaped jars from Sayong, a subdistrict located about 10 kilometres from Kuala Kangsar, Perak.[1] In particular, the jar is cultivated by the Kampung Kepala Bendang residents.[2] The village is where this industry was originated as the abundance of raw materials, such as clay that can be obtained from the village; the labu sayong making industry has expanded among the heirs of the original potters to surrounding villages in the Kuala Kangsar district from here on out.[3][4] The water pitcher is made from clay is carefully shaped and carved. The carving motifs are often inspired by traditional elements, especially flowers such as tanjung flowers, padi, senduduk, star anise, cloves and bamboo shoots.[5]
