The Development Community Handicrafts “Wickerwork” to Global Market Project, led by Community Development Department, Ministry of Interior, as part of the royal project “Pha Thai Sai Hai Sanook” and “Sustainable Fashion”. These products are meticulously crafted with natural materials such as banana, Klah, Krajood, and fiber threads from other plants. Through the collaboration between local artisans and the working team of “Pha Thai Sai Hai Sanook” Project, which includes experts from various fields, contemporary touches are added to each item such as accessories, household products, and home decors. This infusion aims to enhance international appeals to more global audiences.

Choosing environmentally friendly products crafted through green process, which are safe for makers and users, represents a creative solution and a relevant opportunity to promote and resonate local Thai basketry products, rich in local wisdom, to gain more acclaim from international audience.
