Siam Book Shelf

This is the collaborative work of two renowned local brands from Chiang Mai, Moonler and Local Celadon. Siam fuses celadon, a highly praised local ceramic, with Chamchuri wood, resulting in a striking design.

 

This is a new interpretation of the familiar marriage between ceramic objects and a bookshelf - it is an imprinted memory of ceramic pieces embedded into wood, turning an ordinary piece of furniture into an impressive decorative item. Celadon bookends and vases can be moved around to fit individual preferences.

Dimensions: 910x300xH1480mm

 

Colour: Charcoal Black, Celadon

 

Materials: Chamchuri Wood / Celadon

Mooner's products are mainly made of solid Chamchuri wood (known as Acacia, Raintree, or Monkey Pod), which is a living material. Each and every solid wooden product is absolutely unique and has different colors, shades, and grains.

 

Any cracks, knots, holes, or splits before or after sale represent a natural feature of true solid wood. They are not imperfections but rather accepted as a characteristic of solid wood. The movements between each solid wood plank glued together to form the tabletop or furniture part might occur over time due to the different conditions of weather, environment, and humidity. It cannot represent a reason for claims.

Moonler is a contemporary furniture brand from Chiang Mai, Thailand - a renowned manufacturer and exporter of premium quality Chamchuri wood furniture. The company is situated in the woodland mountainous area, and was founded in 2008 by engineer Phuwanat Damrongporn, and artist Sarawut Sakthamcharoen, who through their passion about the local craftsmanship have interpreted precious wisdom and presented it to the wider world.

​

Collaboration with local and international designers continues to enhance the furniture crafted by exceptional Thai craftspeople. Through their work, the disappearing traditional crafts are restored and brought back to be a meaningful part of our daily life.

Ratthee Phaisanchotsiri is an industrial designer, photographer, and exhibition curator - he also acts as Moonler's design director, and is currently residing in Chiang Mai Province.
