Company Profile
TUN Handicraft was established in 1975 to promote Myanmar lacquerware handicrafts to the world, create employment opportunities, and empower the creativity of local artisans in the lacquerware sector. TUN Handicrafts has been exporting lacquerware since 1979.
Our founder U Kan Tun learned the handmade production of lacquerware at the age of 12 from his parents, lacquerware artisans. He went on to become a lecturer and an advisor at Lacquerware College Bagan, and TUN Handicraft became one of the most prominent lacquerware producers in Bagan. In 1977, U Kan Tun started a residence-based Lacquerware Workshop at his home in Bagan, giving tourists the opportunity to try their hand at making lacquerware. His personal ambition was to lead the sustainable development of lacquerware Handicraft in the Bagan region.

We maintain traditional craftmanship and innovate new designs

We innovate new designs based on market trends and customer demands, while maintaining traditional Myanmar lacquerware craftsmanship descending from the 13th century. Our key products are food containers, cabinets, and folding screens.
