She was the first person to bring the
movement of calligraphy on fruits to Hoa Binh city.
Each product is drawn in about 15-20 minutes
depending on the difficulty and the fussiness of the patterns. On average, she
produces 100 products per day. Each fruit after finishing is 150,000 - 200,000
VND. Most of the customers’ orders are from Hanoi, customers in the province
are not many. They have mainly ordered for the Lunar New Year. Each product is
polished and meticulously made by Mrs. Nong from the stage of picking fruits,
choosing the paint and the painting color, to covering the lines on the
drawings to match and stand out. She herself directly cut polemo fruits in Tan
Lac district. Currently, due to the increasing demand of the customers, she
imported Tien Vua pomelos in Tuyen Quang province. These fruits presented on
the five- fruit tray look eye-catching, unique and strange.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Nong painted calligraphy with
the word "Loc"(Wealth) on Tien Vua pomelos according to the orders
In order to paint after drying faster, some
places often bring to drying, but Ms. Nong chose to dry naturally. It takes a
long time to wait, but the quality is much better. The fruit will not be
withered and burnt and it will take a long time to be damaged. The material to
create a complete product is simple, only fruit, non-toxic acrylic paint and a
bit of purl to cover the surface of calligraphy. Textures favored by customers
are cherry blossoms, apricot flowers and calligraphy letters "Phuc",
(Happiness) "Loc"(Wealth),
"Tho" (Long Age) ... The main color is red - the color of peace,
luck. Besides there is a yellow color of apricot blossom and green shoots of
trees.
This year, the number of orders is more than
1,000 ones, estimating that the number of orders will be more when it is near
Tet holiday. Due to the increasing demand of customers, Ms. Nong will try to
draw on many different kinds of fruits and create more patterns in the coming
time.
