EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two exquisite miniature plates from Thailand, each representing a prestigious order of honor. The plate on the left is the Maha Poramabhorn of the Order of White Elephant, an exceptional class model created in 1909. Crafted with gold and silver, adorned with vibrant enamels, this intricate piece measures 4.2 cm in diameter and weighs 20 g. On the right side rests a miniature plate of the Order of the Crown (of Siam), specifically a model from the exceptional class made in 1918. This stunning creation features gold and silver accents along with dazzling diamonds, adding an extra touch of opulence to its design. With a diameter of 4.4 cm and weighing 20 g, it exemplifies elegance and prestige. Both these remarkable insignias are part of a private collection belonging to Luisa Ricciarini, who has graciously shared this glimpse into Thai culture and history through her photography. These miniatures represent not only Asian artistry but also symbolize honor and recognition within Thai society. The attention to detail displayed in these pieces is truly awe-inspiring; every brushstroke or gemstone placement reflects meticulous craftsmanship that has stood the test of time. As we admire these precious objects through Luisa Ricciarini's lens, we are transported back to early twentieth-century Thailand—a time when such honorary decorations held great significance for those who received them.
