A
Heritage Collection
Without a doubt, the owner of this gallery (he has two galleries in Phuket and another two in Bangkok) has the single best collection of traditional Southeast Asian art in Thailand. In this museum-quality showroom there are 3m Buddhas encrusted with precious stones, ancient teak shrines, Buddha’s glorious footprint carved from sandstone and a large alabaster Buddha carved from one rock. Some pieces are for sale (deals are only done face to face and prices can be more than one million baht). Others are just for show.

Baan Thai Antiques
A glorious collection of antiques and new-production traditional art from Myanmar (Burma), China, Laos and Thailand crowd this small shop. There are 70-year-old alabaster Buddhas, gongs, temple bells (the real thing), lacquerware, ceramics, enormous doors and teak-wood reliefs. This place is not cheap, but serious collectors won’t mind the expense of shopping at Baan Thai.

Baanboonpitak
Ready for a treasure hunt? Hidden in this dusty antique shop is an array of teak sculpture, paintings, some excellent bronze work, massive buffalo-skin drums, bejewelled royal dogs and a lot of high-quality teak furniture. So get dirty and find something beautiful. The sardonically sweet shopkeeper will arrange shipping.
