The study titled “The Evolution of the Appearance: A Case Study of Khan Maak Set” was aimed at 1) studying the definitions and roots of definitions of Thai traditional wedding pedestal trays and 2) studying a process involving the evolution of the appearance of Thai traditional wedding pedestal trays. Fifteen samples were allocated by purposive sampling, followed by in-depth interviews, observations, note taking, and reviewing relevant articles and content analysis.
The results revealed three definitions and their corresponding roots related to the Thai traditional wedding pedestal tray, which include the objectives of applications, the compositions of the trays, and the concepts of their decorations. The evolution of the appearance of Thai traditional wedding pedestal trays occurred in three stages: the classical, elegant, and contemporary stages. Education, society, traditions and customs, economics, and technology affected the process of evolving the appearance of Thai traditional wedding pedestal.
