Buddhas, low chairs, tee-shirts : new items on the shop !

We just displayed on our website some nice new items. We found them in Phnom Penh a few weeks ago:

- Buddhas statues, unique and pretty cheap! We showed them in a former post: http://www.maisondumekong.com/blog/?p=48

As you might have understood, every one of them is a unique statue, and they are not imported by whole containers.

These statues are carved by a craftsman in a little workshop in the Kingdom’s capitale!

Have a nice shopping time on Maison du Mékong!

 

Khmer buddhas

Hunting for unusual items is our main dutty at Maison du Mékong. When we are in Phnom Penh, we spend days nearby the traditional markets to find out for you the low-priced and very special item you won’t find in your neighbour’s living room.

Please find below some pictures of the worshop where buddhas are made especially for Maison du Mékong. I guess you won’t find this place if you go to Phnom Penh as it is very well hidden !
