Many
foreign guests, who come to visit the Orchid
Garden and the Butterfly Farm are interested in souvenirs
that are related to orchids or butterflies or at least different from the
usual souvenirs and easier to take home than orchid flowers.
Therefore,
a small shop is attached to Orchid Garden Khaolak,
filled with some nice souvenirs from all over Thailand.
There
are magnetic cards with different orchid
pictures to fix to the refrigerator and small artificial
orchids that are looking so similar to the real
ones that some visitors at first glance do not believe
they are artificial. They are made from 'Japanese
Clay'.
Some
collector's stamps with motives of orchids
are available together with an extensive collection
of postcards of native orchids, which all have been
taken in the orchid garden.
'Miss
Udorn Sunshine', the only perfume in the
world that uses orchids as raw material, is also
on sale. This perfume is a very special gift and
a typical memory to your holiday in Thailand. It comes in 2 versions, a lighter and a stronger version. You are welcome to test them.
A small
selection of marvelous jewelry creations.
They are made from real orchids, which have been
covered with a protective coating and are then lowered
into tanks of base metal for 12-14 hours, depending
on the orchids' size and form. This preserves the
flower's real shape and gives the flower strength.
After optimum strength is reached, jewelry accessories
are soldered onto the plated pieces and then undergo
further electroplating for additional strength,
some with a final plating of 24K gold.
