Apoyado en un tronco, un elefante caprichoso contempla su papel en la industria maderera de Tailandia. Nantana Sompamitre fabrica un encantador portalápices en laca negra dorada. Talla madera de árbol de lluvia en la forma deseada y la cubre con laca. Una vez seco, se pule y se aplica otra capa, hasta veinte veces, antes de que queden presentes seis capas de laca pura. La capa final se pule con arcilla cocida en polvo. La pieza está dorada con una técnica llamada lai rot nam. Sompamitre graba el motivo a mano alzada con una herramienta afilada, y la pieza se espolvorea con un polvo de madera. Luego, el fondo se cubre con una pintura gomosa y se vuelve a espolvorear. Se aplica una fina capa de laca a toda la superficie y, antes de que se seque, se colocan hojas de oro sobre ella y se presionan firmemente en su lugar. Los anillos de latón protegen las aberturas.

Adorable!”

Simply adorable. More petite than I expected, but so lovely on my table for spring time. The pretty painted flowers on the black background is so sweet. Would make a great gift.
