HISTORY OF LABU SAYUNGNeolithic Age potsherds found in Lenggong, Perak indicate that the making of labu is an ancient art that has been refined through time.
"Labu" is mean a vase and "
Sayong" is a village in Perak. Labu Sayong is a type of earthenware jug that certain Perak Malays used for the storage of drinking water. Labu sayong also generic name for water pitchers produced in the
village of Sayong, just outside Kuala Kangsar. Shiny and black, these gourd-shaped bottles have variations in form.
THE PROCESS
The making of labu is predominantly the domain of womenfolk. The first step in making this type of water pitcher is the collection of clay from the riverbank. The clay is dried in the sun, and a mortar and pestle worked by foot is used to pound it so that it is free of air pockets. It is then sieved to remove coarse materials, and shaped into a cylinder using a mould for easy handling. The process of shaping the clay begins by coiling a cylindrical piece from end to end, forming a circle. The potter's wheel is then spun and the clay pinched with the thumb and forefinger so that it rises vertically. Skill and control are required to shape the body, neck and head. A bamboo spatula is used to shave off excess clay while a small, wooden paddle is used to shape and firm the body. Finally, a flat piece of clay attached to the body becomes its foot. The pitcher is now decorated with motifs and smoothened with pebbles. It is then placed inverted in a kiln. After firing for four hours, it is removed and buried in paddy chaff, which imparts a black sheen to it. A coat of resin is applied to its foot to make it waterproof.

Labu sayong can keep cold water and we feel fresh when we drink water in Labu Sayong because Labu Sayong made from soil which gives mineral for healthy. But water from bottle have chemicial material and gives bad effect to healthy. The bottle can once used because its have chemistry materials but Labu Sayong can used more than once because the soil not have chemicial.
