Gently twining in gracious arabesques, grape vines proffer luscious clusters of fruit. Tay Nontawat creates a delightful relief panel of rain tree wood. The luxurious grape motif is known as chor a-ngun. Nontawat sculpts the airy piece by hand with knife and chisel, and he lets it dry thoroughly before applying a protective coat of lacquer.
