‘Napat’ is a limited collection created in remembrance
of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej – King Rama IX.
Only 99 of these exclusive bags have been made with
a total of 10 designsavailable within the collection.
Thai people place great importance on the association
between words and their meanings.
The name ‘Napat’ is one of those words.
‘Napat’ is formed from two Thai words
with rich and propitious meanings.
‘Na’ signifies auspicious wisdom and intelligence,
while ‘pat’ has its roots in the word ‘pattana’
which means ‘to develop’ but can also refer to
The Chaipattana Foundation under the patronage
of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej.
His Majesty envisaged the foundation as one
that would serve to provide prompt, timely
and necessary responses to problems affecting
Thai people through various development projects.
‘Napat’
is a remarkable bag as it combines cultural and artistic values with
everyday practicality. This design is the result of great perseverance
and collaboration from a group of six dedicated and inspired artists.
The remarkable elements of the ‘Napat’ bag
are its unique shape, the various
materials used to make the bag’s cover,
and the exquisite ‘Bundarik Lotus’ embroidery
which adorns the bag. The use of the ‘Bundarik Lotus’
represents perseverance according to ‘The Story of Mahajanaka’,
a piece of literature composed by His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej.
Two materials are used for the bags’ frames.
The silver version has a frame made of 93% silver,
while the gold version’s frame is made of 99.99% gold
weighing 2 Baht. Both are made by using Thai traditional techniques.
The oval shape of the outer square frame symbolizes gentleness
and strength which in turn reflect His Majesty King Rama IX’s common practices.
The bag itself is made of nielloware which has been fashioned by jewellers.
The bag’s cover is made from carbon fiber woven with tin and brass strips.
These materials give the bag a vshiny appearance
which will never be tarnished.
This masterpiece of PHYA design
is the product of the highly-skilled
craftmanship of several artists and
this contributes to the remarkable
identity of the ‘Napat’ bag.
The bag’s handle is also made of niello and is fashioned by using
traditional nielloware-making techniques passed on from generation
to generation by craftsmen from Nakhon Sri Thammarat province in the southern part of Thailand.
This reflects authentic Thai identity.
Finally, each of the 99 bags in this very exclusive collection is numbered
with each number appearing delicately engraved onto the bag’s lock.
