Sawasdee ka! This Thai girl is greeting you with the traditional Thai wai. She is a wooden doll, very common in Thailand, and very easy to get in any souvenir shop in Bangkok. Think Chatuchak weekend market. But mine I bought from the souvenir shop of Taksila Hotel in Mahasarakham, Khon Kaen province in northeastern Thailand. She is actually more than 14" tall, but her whole body picture doesn't look good; it's better to see her up close.
