Collection: New Year Gifts

Each one is handmade by Akha women in Chiang Rai through our Akha Ma-De program.

New Year Gifts for Elders and Seniors

Our first recommendation is the Malai Glin Rak (฿499), a hand woven cotton garland presented in a wooden gift box, in gold and yellow, the colours of prosperity. It fits the occasion beautifully.

On the morning of 1 January, Thai families visit respected elders and senior superiors, present a gift with a blessing, and receive a blessing in return.

Woven containers and handwoven fabric are among the traditional gifts for the day, so a hand woven cotton piece carries that custom forward naturally.

A quick note on colour: gold or yellow is the auspicious choice, and red is right when your gift is for a Chinese Thai recipient.

For a year end gift that carries your brand,

• the Malai Glin Rak (฿499) arrives in its wooden gift box, in gold and yellow, the colours of prosperity,
• the Diplomatic Malai (฿2,690) is our VIP phuang malai for the clients and partners who matter most,
• the Signature Bracelet (฿390) can be engraved with your own text through a simple quotation,

There is a practical bonus too: the Revenue Department allows client gifts to be deducted up to 2,000 baht per person per occasion, and most of our giftable pieces sit well under that ceiling.
