Each item, made from rice husks and polypropylene, features different motifs inspired by geometric themes, with a sturdy case for storing them securely.

Weight: 0.7 Color: White Material: Recycled rice husks, polypropylene Made in Thailand Story Behind the art: Pripan is my name, but you can call me 'View.' Mr. Nithiphan and I co-founded a company out of our concern for the environment and a desire to create one-of-a-kind future design products. As a result, unwanted materials have been transformed into lovely new home decor items such as boxes, bowls, trays, cups, coasters, planters, basins, and other natural-looking items. Nithiphan's chemical engineering expertise and my business administration and marketing background helped us create an SME from construction materials, mosaics, tiles, synthetic stones, and polymers to create innovative polymer mosaics. The material is sturdy, durable, lightweight, fireproof, and beautiful. Our brand's mosaic was patented, both domestically and internationally. We never stop growing. We look for ways to differentiate our products while also caring about the environment. Starting with a close example of plastic waste from the production of buttons and mosaics, we give it new life in a synthetic stone. We had the opportunity to make tables and counters from coffee grounds, obtained from one of the biggest coffee brands. So we came up with another idea — in this vast area of Thailand, waste materials like rice husks could be turned into beautiful items, and this will help Thai farmers. After researching with our team, we started crafting. Sun-drying rice husks prevent them from mold and moisture. The secret was drying it and maintaining the right temperature. The mold is assembled and strengthened with polymer to create a decorative object. Thailand's rice production never stopped. And now we also use coconut fiber. We prioritize design. An item must first be beautiful. Practicality will follow by way of sustainability. We take the consumer's approach to design by making everything simple. Also, the price must accessible. A variety of sources inspire our designs. Mr. Nithiphan studied chemical engineering, but he can also build machines and has a strong desire to travel. His personal tastes in art and home decor are reflected in our work. We believe the shopper is our leader and guide, because we do not do what we enjoy on our own. The best designs arise from the customers' inspiration. We understand their concern. The handmade touch of artisan skill creates variations in color, size and design. If buying two of the same item, slight differences should be expected. Note: Color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen. Imported"
