We are all familiar with stroking soft cat fur or holding a warm cup of coffee. But did you know that "plants" possess textures that can truly awaken your senses?
Some feel cold as metal, sparking instant alertness. Some feel rough like wood, grounding you with a sense of stability. And others feel velvety soft, soothing you into a peaceful sleep.
Today, Thai Tissue presents a curated collection of plants with such unique textures that your fingertips—and your heart—will experience a sensation unlike anything you’ve felt before.
ยางอินเดีย
(Ficus Elastica)

What Does It Feel Like?
The leaves of the Rubber Plant (Ficus Elastica) are defined by their thickness, high gloss, and sleek smoothness
Touching them evokes the sensation of running your hand over "high-end leather shoes polished to a mirror shine." Others liken it to "genuine leather sofa upholstery"—offering a firm, taut resistance against your palm. It delivers a tactile experience that feels undeniably premium, robust, and cool to the touch
บีโกเนีย เร็กซ์
(Begonia rex 'Putz')

What Does It Feel Like?
When you run your hand over the leaf, you will feel fine hairs that are slightly rough—not entirely soft or smooth. The surface is uneven, often featuring embossed contours that follow the leaf's pattern, making it engaging to touch, much like tracing a "3D map"
It evokes the sensation of stroking a "cat's tongue" or a "hand-woven textured rug" with raised patterns
มังกรเงิน
(Alocasia Silver Dragon)

What Does It Feel Like?
The leaf surface is matte yet luminous, feeling icy cold to the touch. The ridges are deeply recessed, creating distinct grooves that your fingertips can easily trace
This stiff, cool texture evokes the sensation of rubbing a "massive ancient silver coin" or running your hand over a "carved granite slab.
ฮาโวเทียหยดน้ำ
(Haworthia cooperi)

What Does It Feel Like?
The surface is taut and sleek, but upon a gentle press, you feel a playful, springy resistance—it is not rigid at all
It evokes the sensation of touching a "Gummy Candy" or holding a "Water Balloon"—firm on the outside, but soft and yielding on the inside
แก้วสารพัดนึก
(Alocasia sanderiana Bull)

What Does It Feel Like?
The leaves are shiny and stand stiff and unyielding, showing absolutely no sway or movement. The surface is taut and flawless, resembling perfectly molded plastic without a single wrinkle
It evokes the sensation of touching a "High-Grade Artificial Plant" or running your hand over a "Hard Plastic Document Folder."
ย่านดาโอ๊ะ / ใบไม้สีทอง
(Bauhinia aureifolia)

What Does It Feel Like?
Unlike typical smooth leaves, this surface is swathed in dense, fine velvet hairs that shimmer in shades of copper or silver.
Stroking against the grain reveals a luxurious softness with a slight resistance, mimicking the touch of high-end textiles. It evokes the sensation of caressing "Hand-Woven Velvet" or "Gold-Embroidered Silk."
หูเสือ
(Plectranthus amboinicus)

What Does It Feel Like?
The leaves possess a substantial thickness that differs from typical succulents. They are coated in an extremely dense layer of short hairs. A gentle squeeze reveals a surprising sponge-like resilience
It evokes the sensation of touching a "Thick Felt Sheet" or handling a high-quality "Absorbent Coaster."
เฟิร์นบอสตัน
(Boston Fern)

What Does It Feel Like?
Countless tiny leaflets are densely packed, creating a texture that is soft, fluffy, and incredibly airy—reminiscent of "Ostrich Feathers" or soft "Cheerleading Pom-poms
Plunging your hand into the lush fronds feels like dipping into "Soap Bubbles" or touching a "Fluffy Cloud"—complete with a refreshing chill from the moisture held within the leaves
เศรษฐีพันล้าน
(Kalanchoe hybrid)

What Does It Feel Like?
The leaves are thick, solid, and springy. A gentle squeeze reveals a dense, firm resistance—they don't yield easily. The surface feels cool and slick, as if it has been dipped in a glossy coating
It evokes the unique sensation of touching "Luk Chup" (Glazed Mung Bean Dessert) or "Glazed Marzipan"—taut and slippery on the outside, but packed with a dense, solid core on the inside
