    Together, the dragon and the phoenix symbolize the union of masculine and feminine forces in the Universe. Thiva Boonnak is inspired by Chinese mystical traditions usually found in ancient royal motifs and in wedding decorations. Between the two mythical beings, the sun is emblazoned with the Fu, Lu, Shou characters which, according to Taoist beliefs, stand for good fortune, prosperity and longevity, respectively. Working with repousse techniques, Boonnak crafts the images with vivid detail in aluminum. They are set against a crimson velvet background and framed in rain tree wood.

    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.
