Traditional silver crafts are deeply rooted in Cambodian culture. Originally created for the aristocracy to use in religious rites and ceremonial occasions like weddings. Today the typical Cambodian house hold has several imitation pieces used for the same practices. Most of the design work in the silver wares depict delicate filigree work, an echo of intricate carvings seen at Angkor, which has been passed down through generations of silversmiths and still manifests itself today in modern pieces. I hope to incorporate them as containers for my floral centerpieces.
