'I'm from a village in northern Thailand known for their saa paper parasols. After graduating in Bangkok in industrial engineering, I returned home to set up my own saa paper and umbrella workshop. We improved designs and patterns, and changed stages in the procedure and techniques in order to improve the quality. Today, although I still mainly craft umbrellas, fans, and accessories made of saa paper and fabric, I try to diversify with other lines. I tend to keep to traditional Thai patterns, but I also have been creating new designs.' What is Worldstock?
