Artisan Info: Photos by Jatuporn Rutnin Southeast Asia has a millenary silversmith tradition, which has developed along different art periods and the interrelationship of diverse cultures. Thailand's renowned artistic periods such as Dvaravati, Sri Vijaya, Lopburi, Chiang Saen, Sukhothai, Ayutthaya and Ratanakosin, bear a strong Indian influence. This in turn has been absorbed into the Thai way of life and sensibility. Thailand's silversmith legacy also bears evidence of hill tribe influences. Silver has long adorned hill tribe attires for it symbolizes wealth and prestige - some also believe silver wards off illness and misfortune. Originally, silver was intended for small votive stupas and as an inlay for religious statues. Later it was confined to creating decorative items, ceremonial, and religious articles. Then, with the rise of Chiang Mai and its handcraft industries, silver tooling began to develop more actively. This was also due to an influx of Burmese refugees, following the fall of Pagan, and these refugees brought their arts and skills with them.
