Situated on the beach in the tropical paradise of Samui Island in the Gulf of Thailand, you will find yourself in the quintessential setting for complete mental, physical and spiritual rejuvenation.

WOMAN POWER

This rare t-shirt commemorates women's contributions to and sacrifices for an independent Vietnam. Vietnam has a long history of women fighters, from the legendary Trung sisters, who defeated the Chinese army in 40 C.E. through the 20th century, when Vietnamese women fought the Japanese, the French, and later the Americans. Many were young women or girls - valuable assets because they were easy to train and were not as likely to be burdened with family responsibilities. The fact that American soldiers did not regard women and girls as threats increased their value as guerrilla fighters.

WARM & GORGEOUS CRINKLED 100% THAI SILK SHAWL/SCARF

Of all the precious goods traveling the Silk Road since antiquity, silk has always been the most irresistible to westerners: during the Roman Empire, it was sold for its weight in gold.

Today silk is still synonymous with elegance. The strongest natural fiber, it also absorbs moisture, retains its shape and shimmers with a luster all its own. Thai silk, with its soft but relatively coarse texture and uneven, slightly knotty threads, is ideally suited for weaving by hand, and has an unmistakably exotic beauty that, with minimal care, will last forever.

Antique Rice Farming Implement from Cambodia

Before there were killing fields, there were rice fields. Cambodians have been growing rice for over 2,000 years. Rice is so important to Cambodians that they have over a hundred words for it and have developed hundreds of different strains that grow in different conditions. This is the knife that was used to harvest that rice, and is still used in rural Cambodia. Weighing 300 grams and measuring approx. 25" along the curve of the wood and with a now-rusty 6" blade, this item is a striking wall decoration and conversation piece.
