Souvenir   

 

With a long traditional and cultural heritage of the Thai culture, we would like to present some items from Thailand which you can have as a gift or as a souvenir to someone or even yourself, who can appreciate and admire the vast cultural background we have on Earth. 

 

We have put together a few items that you can order.

 

#1 Teak wood Spirit House - Size 17" x 10" x 15" or 43 x 25 x 38 cm.

For visitors who have been to Thailand, spirit houses can be seen in virtually most residential and business properties all over Thailand. The term Spirit house or Saan Phra Phum in Thai, provides home for the spirits. It is believed that spirits and souls inhibits Earth and the spirits can influence the well beings of human. Thus, if one were to reside at a place, a spirit house is often erected to invite the spirits to move in. The basic offerings of flower garland, the lighting of candle and joss sticks and occasional offerings of edible food is part of the ritual to please the spirits, in return for the occupants' good health and success in their undertakings. This is also prevalent to occupants of businesses and even financial institutions.

Why not share with our culture and have a spirit house for yourself or someone you care for?

#2. Teak wood Elephant - Height 6" or 15 cm.

For elephant lovers, there is nothing that can compare to the local craftsmanship, handed down for generations in presenting such details as in the form of the hand carved elephant. 

 

#3. Wooden Thai Musician - 12" or 30 cm.

This pair of traditional musician, in contemporary art form, is just some of the fine examples of Thai craftsmanship.

As a fierce guardian which can influence the geomancy, believed by many, enhance one's position, as in placing certain objects in certain part of the house, these lions were believe to ward off or guard it's owner from evil spirits.
