Sampan, also known as thuyen ba la tam ban, is a type of small wooden boat or skiff. First invented in Han Dynasty China, these beautiful boats soon appeared in the waters of Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, and Malaysia.

Our display-only version features seven boards made of star wood or Merawan hardwood, a local fine wood similar to golden oak.
