Chiang Mai is the main center for high quality handicrafts in Thailand, with the Sankhampaeng area being the focus for all kinds of products, such as Thai silk items, hand-crafted furniture, and even eggshells decorated with unusual designs.

Watch the various stages of production of Thai silk, and see colorful paper umbrellas as they are made before your eyes. See skilled hands form celadon ceramics, and craftsmen carve teak wood into elegant furniture. Also fascinating to watch is the production of lacquer ware.

Buy unique silverware items direct from the makers, and discover other thriving handicraft industries of cotton, as well as antiques from Myanmar and beyond.
