Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together two decades of research into the process of commercialization of the folk crafts of Thailand: the conditions of its emergence, the parties involved in its development, the changes in the processes and organization of production which accompany it, the channels through which commercialized craft products are marketed, the nature of the audiences which they reach, and the transformations in appearance and meaning which the products undergo as a result of their commercialization. Each chapter deals with a specific issue in a particular context, but virtually all of them relate to one or another of these principal aspects of the process of commercialization. Part I explores the commercialization of hill tribe textiles, particularly those of the Hmong refugees from Laos. Part II presents a series of case studies of the various ways in which the products of lowland Thai "craft villages" became commercialized.

Over 175 spectacular full-color photographs showcase a wide variety of handicrafts, including baskets, earthenware, water dippers, shimmering silk fabrics, fine silverware, lacquerware, jewelry, furniture, wood carvings, and altar tables and other ceremonial objects. The trappings of Thai theater arts - masks, puppets, dance costumes, and musical instruments - are also represented here. A chapter featuring the innovative commercial crafts of the last two decades, together with a map, glossary, index, and comprehensive bibliography, completes this authoritative volume." "Fascinating, informative, and visually stunning. Arts and Crafts of Thailand contains a treasury of both ordinary and unusual objects, all of them designed and created with ingenuity and expertise, and all of tremendous appeal both to folk art collectors and to anyone with an interest in this remarkable country."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book excerpt: Things Thai presents over 60 different items from Thailand along with extensive cultural and historical background information. Each is a collectible in its own right, and has some cultural relevance or a story to tell. Each object, be it a work of art, an emblem or something more everyday, represents an aspect of Thai life. Some items are devotional objects inspired by Theravada Buddhism, others are representative of the strong crafts tradition in the country; some have distinctive Thai design motifs, such as the kanok flame and vegetal motifs, others are simply pieces of clothing or jewelry--but all have a distinct bearing on Thai customs and culture. Each item is photographed separately and detailed text explains its historical importance and cultural significance.
