Tiraphan Hasub

Tiraphan Hasub handcrafted jewelry

"Sawasdee kha! My name is Tiraphan Hasub, but everyone calls me by my nickname, Yo, which I got from my parents when I was a child. Yo means a kid who cries a lot, and that's exactly what I used to do then. I was very sensitive to everything, and thus cried a lot.

"I met my husband at university in Bangkok. I worked there for three years after graduating, and then got married. We moved back to Chiang Mai, where he is originally from, and he taught me the art of handcrafts. We now have a workshop and a daughter. People keep telling me that I am a good mother because I manage to combine motherhood and work, and that makes me happy.

"It hasn't always been easy though. It was a great challenge for me to start married life and a different type of work in a place that was foreign to me. It makes me proud to see what I have achieved now. The other challenge I conquered is bungee jumping!

"You could say I'm a fashionista, always trying to look good by wearing nice dresses and jewelry. I believe many women think like me, and that's what inspired me to create jewelry that is original. My designs tend to be more traditional Thai than modern, so I'm thankful for having this place to show my collections to the world."

Susan I've worn my little elephant anklet for over a year now. It's still beautiful and the bells still tinkle. The little elephant eventually fell off, but the anklet is still in place and looks great.

Jackie We bought 2 of these for our granddaughters for Christmas & I heard my granddaughter flip out on the phone when she found out it was an anklet and not a necklace or bracelet. They both loved these. They're really pretty & nicely done.

Tommie It's summertime here & sandals are in season. Over the years, my favorite anklets are starting to look shabby, so I needed new ones. This is a beautiful anklet with lapis (one of my favorite stones). It's well made, it's adjustable too. I love it. I can see it becoming a favorite in my collection.

Brigitte The Agate beaded bracelet, ´Double Beauty` by Tiraphan Hasub is very well done, only the color of the beads were not all the same like on the picture. I missed the reddish, yellow-like and pink one, but it is still beautiful!

James Have been looking for a Tigers eye bracelet for some time, and this one ticks all the boxes. Classically simple with brass rings as contrast, and love that it’s not on elastic. Very very happy buyer

Sandra I wear it everyday But the title of this anklet” Cheerful Walk is a testimony for me as I cannot walk to well because of multiple car accidents. Cheerful Walk is inspiring to me and I am so grateful to the one who made this.
