6 months agoI use a paintbrush with Thai writing on it for work that I happened to stop by at an art supply store while traveling in Chiang Mai about 15 years ago. Returning to Bangkok for the first time in 10 years, I wondered if they had that brush here, so I stopped in. A Japanese-speaking man named Kia served me, and we had a great conversation. I never expected to be able to speak Japanese in a place like this, not a tourist spot! I was thrilled to find that my memorable paintbrush was still on sale, and that the price hadn't changed much since then! I also bought a slightly nicer brush made from cow's ear hair (though still around 200-300 yen) to try out, and it made for a great souvenir! The store's laid-back atmosphere really gave it a tropical feel. This shop was cheaper than the stationery store I stopped by later. I wonder if it's frequented by students from the art university across the street? Kia is the third generation owner, and it seems to be a beloved local shop.
