About this Artist

Thiva Boonnak speaks reflectively of her art amidst the scattered tools and the pieces in progress that fill her family's old-fashioned workshop.

"Our region's designs are all special. Each one is unique and grandiose." Her soft words echo the proud sentiments passed on by her family generations before her.

Thiva Boonnak tells how her father taught her and her brothers the silversmith craft, and how he showed them not only the technical, intricate skills, but also transmitted the smith's labor of love. With such passion flowing from their hearts to their hands it is not difficult to understand why the work of Thiva Boonnak's family is so highly esteemed in Thailand.

The Boonnak's home witnessed the birth of silver crafting in Thailand at the turn of the 20th century. King Chulalongkorn was patron of the arts and settled Burmese craftsmen the area. They shared the secrets of their ancient and intricate craft, which the Boonnak family has since elevated to its highest plateau.

My daughter is so delighted with her Shimmering Leaves (41950) earrings that she will not share. (Well, she will share my Pikun Blossom earrings, but she won't share hers.) If you ever make another pair in this style, I would love to have them for my very own.

My husband treated my daughter and I to silver earrings as birthday gifts. They arrived yesterday and we are delighted with them. They are delicate and well made and lovely to wear. I am looking forward to choosing another pair for her Christmas present. Thank you for allowing us to purchase these tiny works of art!

Dear Thiva, I was astounded by the delicate beauty of my Princely Peacock Pendant! Your artistic gift is truly revealed in the design and gentle fall of the pendant on its layered pattern of silver. I was so delighted that I have bought the matching earrings! I have chosen you as a favorite artist, and I am eagerly looking forward to seeing my earrings! NOVICA.com is to me one of the rare gifts to web sites, and I will continue to search its site for gifts of beauty from around the world! Wonderful, Thiva, for all the talent in your artistry!

I purchased "Chiang Mei with Flowers" bracelet from Thiva Boonnak. It arrived in less than a week's time, and it was stunningly beautiful. More than I dreamed it'd be! I've never seen such an exquisitely crafted jewelery item with such delicate and beautiful detail. Thank you, Thiva, for this wonderful and unique gift. This was my first purchase from Novica, but it won't be my last.

I purchased 'Chiang Mai with Flowers' from Thiva Boonnak. I ordered it on a Sunday from Thailand. I had it by the following Friday!!! When I opened the box, the bracelet took my breath away. The delicate craftmanship, the unique style was utterly breathtaking. Thank you for a beautiful and rare gift that I can't wait to give. You just can't go wrong with this artist. This is my second purchase from Novica. It will not be my last.

The peacock pendant and earrings designed by Thiva Boonnak are extraordinarily lovely. There is so much detail in the filigree and I love how the peacocks' tails shimmer and rustle, almost like little bells. Thank you!

The fineness of Thiva's work -- both its exquisite detail and its masterful manufacture -- is remarkable and readily apparent. Her elegant and excellent "Silver Rain Flowers" necklace is a glorious piece and one of the true prizes of my jewelry collection.

I just received my floral patterned silver frame - and I absolutely love it! It's beautiful! I'm hoping Ms. Thiva Boonnak will make more, as I'd like a second one. ;-). Many thanks. I'm so very impressed by the services the Novica has created for both artists and those of us who appreciate art the world over. Sincerely
