EASTERN SERENITY started as a sourcing company focusing on the products of Thailand. Our customers ranged from corner boutiques to nationally recognized brands. Growing quickly, our larger customers began pressing us to use “cheaper aluminum instead of bronze” or “machine made fabric with automated screen prints instead of individually dyed handmade fabric”. We stubbornly refuse to compromise by offering lower quality or copying real folk art into mass-produced simulacra. We believe it is possible to focus exclusively on the limited quantities of the very best items and still survive. Instead of a huge corporation in disguise, we are an independent project that strives to bring beautiful things to interested fellow travelers. Having known our suppliers for years, we’ve been to their homes, met their families, and eaten their cooking. We certainly need them as much as they need us. We also believe the Fair Trade concept, which improves conditions for workers, should also encompass high quality and balanced prices for the buyers. Our entire collection, unless otherwise stated, is still produced in Thailand.

We don’t cut corners. We are small and careful.

CARVED SOAP FLOWERSCarved by hand from single solid pieces of fragrant soap for decorative purposes only. The flowers are then hand painted in dramatic colors. The flower varieties include orchids, roses, dahlias, hibiscus, and hyacinth. Firmly set in carved mango wood compacts with engraved nickel medallions. Let us choose for you a nice selec-tion of individually gift-boxed flowers in sets of three, six, or twelve. The flowers and colors will vary within the sets.

BLUE AND WhITE SALVAgEShards of Chinese porcelain were salvaged from shipments lost over a hundred years ago under the river that flows through Bangkok. Unlike the porcelain produced today, these blue designs were hand painted using very finely ground cobalt oxide. Modern production methods have replaced the hand painting as well as the cobalt oxide coloring technique. Each item in this collection will have a unique porcelain design chosen for its appeal and cut to shape. Set by hand in Sterling Silver. LJ980

hANDmADE SILVER JEWELRYOn the border of Thailand and Burma,traditional slash and burn farmers have abandoned unsustainable lifestyles and now survive by fashioning 99% pure unadulter-ated silver jewelry.

As even sterling silver (92.5% silver, 7.5% copper) is too rigid to shape by hand, our collection of handmade jewelry is the purest silver jewelry available. Each individual design is produced by distinct family units living in a sustainable way, sur-viving by making beautiful art within their communities. Over a period of time this jewelry will acquire a shady oxidation that can be easily wiped off or left to accentuate the design. This effect is also how you know for certain that you have a pure silver item.

ANCIENT CORAL JEWELRYOur fossil agate jewelry started as Indonesian coral in an offshore reef 20 million years ago. In rare and lucky instances, after being buried by volcanic debris and shift-ed above the water by earthquakes, the full pattern and character of the original coral was perfectly preserved in a silica matrix. We offer only the very best specimens straight from the jungles of Indo-nesia. Only a handful are chosen out of thousands that are put aside. While our selection process imple-ments uniformity in polyp shape, size, color, and sharpness, every stone is unique and differences should be expected. Set in sterling silver and available in Goldenrod or Ivory shades. FJ160

Buddha ImagesAre sacred items to people who follow the Buddhist religion. Many Buddhists believe that every Buddha image is a potential vehicle for the Buddha’s incarnation. We import our Buddha images from Thai-land, and the Thai Buddhists are often quite concerned about the symbols of their religion being treated respectfully by other cultures. In fact, they are so concerned about this, they demand that each and every exported Buddha image have a government permit. We re-spect their wishes and thank you in advance for doing likewise.

mONK BAgAs they perform their ascetic duties, monks wear simple robes to cast aside all issues of status and comfort related to everyday clothes. These simple robes have no zipper, buttons, or pockets. However, a monk may still have to carry useful items (some medicine, a water bottle, religious books, etc…) so a simple bag is used for incidentals. Our two-color 100 % cotton tote has the same simplicity as the traditional monk accessories, but we added another complete bag as a liner, making it both stronger and fully reversible. The adjustable size monk bag pictured below has a tie strap and open pockets. Choose from the four colors below.

ThE 'ONE' BAgDear Sir or Madam,We have often wished that our monk bag was just slightly bigger so we could use it for grocery shopping. The shoulder strap makes it easy to carry several of them while empty, but carrying more than two full monk bags is an uncomfortable walk home. Can you make a square bottomed, slightly larger monk bag? Try to make the shoulder strap fold down inside before the groceries go in, then add a sturdy pair of handles so I can carry the bags out to the car. Oh, and so I don’t forget it before I go to the store, make it easy to fold up and toss in my purse or glove compartment. Also, don’t put any pockets or zippers on it to keep the bag reasonably priced so that I can afford enough bags to do all my shopping. Thanks for your time. Signed, a friend. Dear Mom, OK, here it is, but please stop writing in as if you don’t know us. Available color only as shown h 15” W 6” L 12” AC230 $19

NIPPON BLAzERThe intricately hand-woven 100% single-layered cotton mate-rial is enhanced with a subtle batik pattern. The jacket has a lined feel due to the contrast between the soft, smooth external texture generated from the batiking process while the internal original color (batik patterns don't pass through this dense cotton) accentuates the intricate diamond weave of the cotton. A cross-tie waist (the inner lapel ties to the opposite hip, while the outer lapel crosses over and ties on the outer hip) and a solid hemmed border update the traditional autumn kimono for everyday occasions.

The elephant is renowned for its intel-ligence and is known to actively think about its actions. At an elephant preserve in northern Thailand, a number of pro-tected elephants have been trained to use a paintbrush with its trunk to apply pat-terns to paper or fabric. Let’s just say this again; the patterns on the stonewashed canvas bags were painted by an elephant. Seriously.

In Thai Buddhist practice, each day of the week has a corresponding Bud-dha statue in a specific posture (some days have two). Almost every temple (Wat) has a statue for each day. Gen-erally, Thais will make their merit and offerings to the Buddha image which matches the day of their birth. Each position has a specific history and often represents an image from a Buddhist parable. These miniature Buddha statues are fixed in diorama frames of hand-finished Thai acacia wood. Sev-en different styles correspond to each of the daily postures. Used as wall art or stand alone displays. h 6” W 6” L 3” WA460 $33

The statuettes inside the enclosed globes are produced by Thai Buddhist temples using the raw material from donated coins, medallions, and statues melted together. The head monk blesses the newly cast statuettes and the community then supports the temple by purchasing the blessed amulets. The statuettes are encased in airtight acrylic globes closed with a 22 carat (92% pure gold) seal. Traditionally, you would wear the Buddha posture that corresponds to the day of the week on which you were born. The statues themselves (including the Kwan Yin and Ganesh pictured below) are not made of gold, but rather formed by the amalgam of all donated metals on the day the temple casts the statuettes.gold Sealed Buddha Pendants0.75" by 0.5" $249

JAPANESE CUShIONSWe aren’t quite sure why our staff calls these pillows ‘Jap-anese cushions’ but we like the convenient size, the quilted double-stitching, and the wide range of color choices of-fered by two different fabrics. Their discreet size is easy to use for persuading hard chairs to be friendlier as well as thick enough to be comfortable on a bare floor. 100% cotton linen cushions are offered in textured, subdued col-ors while the easy-to-maintain rayon silklook colors are bright and thrilling. Handmade in Thailand and filled with all-natural kapok.

ThAI CLASSIC PILLOWS These are traditional patterns, widespread in Thailand. Color choices range from bright to sub-dued, with repeating motifs echoed in the contrasting hues of the pillow sides in a sturdy cotton/synthetic blend fabric.

SILKLOOK PILLOWSOur silklook fabric is a synthetic poly/rayon fabric engineered to have the shimmer and texture of silk, while adding durability and avoiding extra expense. Silk-look fabric can actually hold brighter colors than natural silk. The bright silklook palette is modern and unusual, often used to striking effect in contemporary settings.

COTTON LINEN PILLOWS For a more subdued and understated effect, these high grade cotton fabrics are the right choice. The covers are 100% knotted cotton with the feel and look of raw linen. Alternating colors are echoed again in the pillow side profile.

ROYAL SILKLOOK PILLOWS When we first saw the royal silklook we were astounded by the rich colors, detailed patterns, and refined texture of the poly/rayon material. For triangle pillow aficionados, most varieties in the markets no longer have the power to call forth unbounded enthusiasm, but these pillows get us excited every time we see them.

hOURgLASS ShAPED PILLOWSA handy design that offers head and neck support in almost any posture, they are great gifts and an easy way to experiment with colors before purchasing a large triangle pillow.

mEDITATION PADSUse on a bench, on the ground, or in your medita-tion practice; a meditation pad adds color and style in every decor. The twenty-inch square size guarantees cushioning for determined lounging.

Dating as far back as 1000 BC, the Dong Son culture of Vietnam was arguably the earliest civilization in Southeast Asia to enter the Bronze Age. In some of the most ancient burial sites of this culture are found examples of cast bronze drums. Over the next three millennia they spread throughout the area and stylistic variations were created by artists from Indonesia to Burma and southern China. In these societies, ownership of rain drums, which were used in religious ceremonies, implied control over the hidden forces believed to influence events. Possessing a drum also signified the rarefied material wealth necessary to afford such large cast bronze artifacts. Our rain drums are made of bronze, authentically reproduced by specialized artisans in Thailand, unlike the similar-shaped aluminumware with a “bronze color finish” now offered by some large retailers. The drum tops (tympanum) possess the ubiquitous center sun pattern and intricately patterned concentric rings. Triple frog embellishments can support a glass top while the

sides are accented by raised pastoral and fertility symbols. RDgR

One of the many handicraft traditions in Lanna (northern Thailand) is the hand-carving of segmented teak panels that have become design favorites among Thais and world travelers alike. Like many Lanna carvings, the imagery evokes natural iconography with an eye toward the spiritual realm. The branches, leaves, and blossoms embody pastoral regularity while a lotus bud center and the hidden geometry of a mandala wheel shape provide a divine harmonic to complete the form. Hand-carved teak wood with a light clear-coat lacquer finish. All of the teak wood in our panels are sourced from registered suppliers who reclaim teak wood from old barns, homesteads, and other structures no longer in use. Each design may differ slightly as each artist has a unique approach.

These intricate hand-carved teak houses are Thai spirit homes or ‘saan phra phum’. The people of Thai-land believe that each plot of land contains local spirits in residence. When people build a new house or business this spirit must be offered a miniature abode to prevent any ce-lestial interference in the household proper. According to folklore, the spirits themselves are neither good nor evil, but finicky and mischievous, demanding respect from humans and capable of disastrous actions if they don’t have a space of their own. Our spirit houses are handmade in northern Thailand from small and off-size teak sections, left over from plantation teak furniture factories and reclaimed construction. Truly sustainable and eco-friendly, our houses are delivered without spirits, which are sold separately.
