Silver and Red Thai Repousse Panel of Dragon and Phoenix, "Dragon & Phoenix"
Using aluminum on velvet, Thai artisan Thiva Boonnak designs this majestic depiction of a dragon and phoenix flying together. Boonnak's work is influenced by concepts from feng shui, in which the dragon and phoenix are two of the most powerful celestial animals and represent the forces of yin and yang. In this piece, the dragon and phoenix coming together as yin and yang represents balance. The gleaming metallic repousse of the animals' bodies stands out against the red velvet backdrop, making this panel a vivid centerpiece among any home's decor. Every corner of the piece features a Thai letter, and these four letters together signify wealth and happiness.

"What a fantastic piece!"





I have traveled all over the world, but I could not carry home things like this with me. I have one wall in my hallway dedicated to elephants....this most impressive piece stands out among the others.

"Magnificent artistry"





Miss Boonnaks skill in producing Duel of Elephants is a superb example of greatness in the difficult art of repoussee (a form of metal sculpture that produces a dramatic three-dimensional effect). As an avid collector of fine elephant art, I am delighted to display Miss Boonnaks masterpiece in my residential gallery and would recommend that others check out her handsome and impressive work. -- Mike Thompson, Florida USA
