When Thai people build their houses or inhabit a new place of residence, they always provide a spirit house for the guardian spirits to live. A sacred ceremony is performed to respectfully invite the guardian spirits to come inhabit the spirit house. The guardian spirits bring luck, happiness, accomplishment, and security for all members of the household. Placed either inside their house, or outside near the front door, Thai people believe the guardian spirits will protect against evil spirits or enemies who might threaten the family or their home. A daily offering of food or drink is made to the guardian spirits and placed in the spirit house. This is usually done before the first meal of the day. The offering consists of whatever food the family is eating that day.

This teak wood spirit house is quite beautiful. It arrived in the mail without and dents or scratches. The craftsmanship is high quality.
I got this as a gift for friends who bought a new house and it was AMAZING. Beautiful and unique. Couldn't have been more perfect.
I have seen spirit houses in stores at much higher price than this one. It is just the right size to take your spirit to work and put it in your desk as I did.
