An exhibition is taking place at the Hanoi Museum, reproducing rooms and displaying over 200 artefacts related to the life of Hanoians in the early 20th century.
The entrance to the exhibition area was designed like a familiar village gate, accompanied by an infographic introducing the lifestyles of Hanoians in the past.
The main space is a typical living room of Hanoians in the early 20th century, with a large wood bed, tea table, casket and tray. They are all made of wood and inlaid with pearls.
The tea table was decorated with a set of wooden trays and porcelain cups and a tree that is artistically bent, bringing a sense of sophistication and elegance.
A five-flap long dress for men was preserved by Do Minh Thuong from Trach Xa commune, Ung Hoa district, Hanoi, and presented to the museum in 2021.
