MEKHALA

Head dress with lighting post

Mekhala is a heavenly being in Thai literature, responsible for the creation of rainfall on earth. The Mekhala headdress is an exquisite crown worn by the celestial nymph, decorated with various types of vines and floral that elegantly ascend to the sky. The Shadow Puppet technique, which has been passed down since the 15th century, is used to craft this headpiece from cowhide with care. The headdress is mounted on a base with lights, allowing it to serve as a beautiful decorative piece with superb effects of light and shade displayed on the walls.
