Frommer's Review
This elegant shop opposite the Nantawan Arcade displays the
contemporary wood sculpture and painting of artist Vichit
Chaiwong. Mr. Vichit, a trained painter from Sankamphaeng, has
recently turned to carving rounded bowls, art sculpture, cups,
decorative items, and even furniture from mango wood, then
inlaying decorative hand-tooled pieces of nickel. The contrast
between the polished golden wood and rough-hammered metal is
interesting and unusual. Small cigarette boxes (some painted)
start at 250B ($10); items range up to several hundred dollars
for furniture and paintings.
