    Story Behind the Art:

    'My name is Anchalika Chamnan, I come from northern Thailand, which is considered to be the gate to Burma, Laos, and China. My hometown is renowned as a trading town and my family and relatives are involved in different types of trading. I am glad that we will have the chance to display our work to the world. To show more work is not only a channel for us to earn more, it means we can have the opportunity to support people from our village by offering them more work.'

black elephant purse

nywatchwearer from New York, Oct 10, 2009

The purse is lovely. It looks like the photo with one exception -- the elephant embroideryis gold -- not silver.My only concern is how durable the fabric will be. (I have not used mine enough to know.)

lovely but allergic

nicenot from Venice, Fla., Oct 10, 2009

As soon as I opened this package that contained two other bags from Thailand as well, I had a funny feeling from the smell and Yet I still tried to air them out and spray them with freshener. When I went to use it, unfortunately mine had a broken zipper, I still was getting sick from the material. Now I wish I'd had tried to wash it first maybe then I'd have been able to at least exchange it for another one. I also was surprised by the color difference but I liked it anyway. I anyone has any suggestions on how to be able to have one of these bags without getting an allergic reaction to it I'd love to know.

Thai Purse

clbs1223 from Indiana, Oct 10, 2009

Cute novelty purse. Structure is nonexistant. It is awkward to get into and impossible to find anything inside. No pockets, no lining. Way too much money.

Elephant Parade Bag issues

shjoa from NH, Oct 2, 2009

Initially I loved this bag. However, the string ties on either side tend to come undone rather quickly. I would suggest the maker get them reinforced somehow (clear glue maybe?) because I found myself rewrapping the string consistently. Otherwise, great bag.
