Bangkok Stores
LAMONT
Demonstrating a passion for authentic craftsmanship, designer Alexander Lamont uses skilled artisans to manufacture his objets d’art.
Alexander’s recent designs utilize the ancient and complex craft of lacquering which was once a prominent trade in Thailand. The application of layer upon layer of natural lacquer pigmented with ingredients such as cinnabar, cashew oils, pounded lapis and gold powder produces a mesmerizingly rich surface polish. The dark granite and mirror interior of the LAMONT showroom provides a striking backdrop for alluring lacquered shagreen cabinets, gilded tables and straw marquetry.
