Mechanical ring or vaen
kolkai (in Thais) is a local handmade jewelry which
passes from generations to generations just in a family.
The business has been set up and run only by a member of
the family. To keep them from being copied, the headman
must be a close relative. Each ring is a very involved
process with multiple stages of creation. The material
might be silver or gold.

customers buy it wholesale and resell after that. Thais
generally get it as a souvenir.

move and unstick. For example, the dog head ring or the
chicken head ring can mechanically move its head.
