Artisan: Mrs. Wantanee Meepolkit
Mrs. Wantanee Meepolkit is an artist that runs a small locally owned shop in Ayutthaya, Thailand. Along with the help of family and friends, she weaves together sugar palm leaves to create hanging fish mobiles. Each fish is then hand painted and hung in homes around southeast Asia, and are known to bring good fortune. Ayutthaya served as Thailand's capital between the years 1350 and 1767. The ruins that remain are now just the memories of a once thriving city brought to an end by an invasion of the neighboring country, Burma (Myanmar) in a battle for land ownership. Tourists and natives to Thailand visit this unique city to tour the ancient ruins and watch trained elephant performances.
