The Year of the Rabbit provides an occasion for the "Gilded Black Lacquer Cabinet" exhibition at the historic Thaworawatthu Building to present a new collection, the majority of which is featured in the Gold-Motif Cabinets: Series 2 (Rattanakosin Era) Book 1.
Ideal for art students and those interested in Thailand's rich history and cultural legacy, the exhibition was first introduced in 2019 with a focus on classic designs from the Ayutthaya and Thon Buri periods to honour Thailand's top-notch craftsmanship. This time around, it has shifted to Rattanakosin-style art to demonstrate how artisans maintained customs and local knowledge through religious artworks as times changed.
