    Wow! Such Beautiful teak wood furniture and handmade! It shames me to see so many "compressed sawdust" furniture sold over here, and the surface of all the furniture has such a mirror sheen to them! Your subs never know what'll share with us from the Land of Smiles Paul!

    Beautiful craftsmanship for sure. We toured several factories one day up north and what I fell in love with was the lacquer furniture made from bamboo it was so beautiful and very reasonably priced of course the shipping would have been a killer.

    • @lifeinthailand
      @lifeinthailand  5 років тому

      Bamboo can make good furniture but it has to be treated somehow or it only last a few years and if it is outside it is done in a year. Yes, shipping is the issue everything.

      There is a lot of cheap furniture here as well, they clamped down on the cutting of trees a few years ago and real furniture went away, but it is back now, lots of this stuff around.

    I saw lots of that stuff over there its is so nice. The chairs need cushions. That poor guy needed some sleep I bet he was up all night. It would be great if shops in the uk and around the world worked like that. Find the worker go to buy stuff leave a stick at the till to poke the worker and wake them up ;-) Most of them in Switzerland are asleep on there feet lol Just how they are. Uk the you go in and you have 3 ask you if you need help before you looked at stuff... I remember going in restaurants in Indonesia and you saw no one. so looked for a counter and said hello and some boy or girl jumped up from a sleeping mat behind the counter got your table and meal in 20 mins or less fresh cooked. Took me by surprise the first time but dam fine food and great people.

    • @lifeinthailand
      @lifeinthailand  5 років тому +1

      I agree, sleep when you can get it and here most people can go to sleep in seconds if they want too. This guy was probably up all night moving the furniture from another market in a different city, and well do it again is a day or 2.

    Uncomfortable for falangs maybe, but I see those wide benches in every second home it seems. Maybe the Thais have a different version of comfort as they seem to have no problem sleeping all night on a tile floor.

    I worked at an internship once where they sold this type of stuff, only leser quality. THOSE TABLES ARE AWSOME! although I don't really like the finish, not only is it not flat, the shiny stuff isn't really my kind of furniture, although I must say that it works sometimes (like in boxes ect.)
