What is for sale

The boutique sells the house’s pieces: woven silk, silverware, stone carving, wood carving, lacquer and jewelry. Older forms sit next to more contemporary ones. The house speaks of several hundred creations.

The house

For more than twenty-five years, Artisans Angkor has trained artisans and employs nearly a thousand of them. The first stone carvers were trained in the 1990s by masters restoring the bas-reliefs of the Elephant Terrace at Angkor. The silk starts with the mulberry tree, the silver follows older forms, the wood is local, and the lacquer revives a technique once used on the temples.
