Gifts From Distant Shores
"To learn more about the inner self you may travel to the farthest reaches"
How often have you gone on holiday and brought back some memento to sit on your mantelpiece as a reminder of your days in the sun? Or perhaps you brought back gifts for friends and family to give them a taste of your own travels.
Wherever you travel, from the Orient to the Americas, from India to Japan, all destinations exhibit a rich national culture that manifests itself in its own colourful range of gifts and artefacts. From market stalls, from rowing boats by the side of a luxury liner, or from little shops in old city centres the sellers offer you anything from precious jewellery to religious icons. You might be attracted by a Chinese fan, a carved figure of Ganesh from India, a Japanese Kokeshi doll, a singing bowl from Nepal, not to mention gemstones from every corner of the known world; from South America, a cornucopia of Mayan artefacts – tiny little worry dolls, haki sacks, colourful beaded bracelets and necklaces, as well as rainsticks, panpipes and flutes.
However, if you return from your travels having forgotten to buy a particular item, or if your luggage couldn’t quite accommodate the last few gifts on your list of “things to bring back”, then never fear – here at Clouds we stock many of those interesting little curios that find their way across the world from distant shores.
