NOTE
During the reign of Emperor Minh Mang (1820-1841), the art of copper enameling ("phap lam") developed in Vietnam, through the intermediary of Chinese craftsmen who were helping to build the Imperial City of Hué. The Nguyen rulers set up workshops to supply the imperial court. The five-clawed dragon and phoenix ("Long Phung") decoration is characteristic of Hué court taste and associated with the imperial couple.
