DirectRooms.com – See Thailand best wooden art forms in Chiang Mai in January 2011

Dec. 14, 2010 - PRLog -- Running from late January 2011, the Baan Tawai Woodcarving Fair will incorporate an exclusive selection of wood art, sculptures, pictures and handicrafts. Baan Tawai is Thailand’s foremost centre for hand made products, particularly those made from wood, and the fair is a chance for visitors to see the very best of what is being produced from the region.

On display will be everything from exquisitely carved images of deities from Buddhism and Hinduism, to ornately carved decorations and wall panels. The work being featured is the result of years of skilled carving with some pieces taking over a year to complete and perfect.

People visiting the fair from Chiang Mai hotels (http://directrooms.com/thailand/hotels/chiang-mai-hotels/price1.htm) can also view the carved designs that go into the various kinds of furniture that will also be on display; from bed heads to coffee tables and dining sets to children’s furniture. Artists will also be presenting many new designs for home décor pieces and there will be live demonstrations so visitors can see exactly the level of work involved in creating each masterpiece.

Lek Boonlert, marketing head at DirectRooms.com commented: “Baan Tawai is famous worldwide for its wood carving and the expertise of the artists in the area. Visitors will be coming from all over Thailand and abroad for the event and hotel rooms are likely to be getting filled quickly so advanced online bookings are advisable.”
