Hua Moom Xieng Thong Ethnic Shop

who we are

Hua Moom Xieng Thong Ethnic Shop displays a number of carved ethnic masks and sculptures produced by the Kha Moo ethnic minority of 'Ta Oi', near the Vietnamese border in Saravanh Province.

what we do

By purchasing these crafts, you not only help the artisans support their families and continue their traditional crafts, but you also encourage others in the community to make the beautiful wooden masks and sculptures. A total of 18 Kha Moo villages make these unique and spiritual items for our shop. All masks and sculptures are individual creations, made out of light wood, and dyed with earth from the mountain rice fields and charcoal from village fires. The sculptures depict the every day life and cultural practices of the Kha Moo.
