Grand National Treasure

In Thailand, Grand National Treasure refers to objects that, in the past, were made by the national purse and bestowed by the King to Royal Family members, courtiers, and high-ranking officials. The national treasure also includes items that are valuable in terms of history and Thai artistic features.

The treasures include regalia, royal decorations, ornaments, and Thai coins. These treasures are currently in the custody of the Bureau of Grand National Treasure, The Treasury Department. The national treasures are restored, conserved, and displayed for the general public at the Pavilion of Regalia, Royal Decorations and Coins in the Royal Grand Palace.
