More information

"The souvenir vases are covered in typical Dutch trinkets from Thailand. Boxes of these ceramics miniatures had been lying in a Thai workshop, waiting to be exported to the Netherlands after sale suddenly went flat years ago. Now they're getting a new lease on life as part of these Wonderable vases. Each vessel is unique, thanks to the ever-changing selection of miniatures, and numbered with a hand-painted ceramic disc. The Thai makers sign and date each Souvenir inside the rim before sending the miniatures off to the Netherlands at last. Transformed into unique objects, they're now fit to be displayed in the choicest spot in the house."

Two extra figurines and certificate included.
