In recent years Phra Khun Paen amulets had evolved in accordance to changes in taste and lifestyles of worshippers and collectors. From observation, the motive behind the creation of this Khun Paen amulets featuring some daring images is mainly to distinguish that it is different from others especialy in potraying strong MahaSaneh (lethal opposite sex attraction). People always associate Khun Paen as the best Romeo with many wives and consorts.

This may be the key reason why this Casanova type of amulets were created for the Casanovas who have only 1 aim - to charm and attract the opposite sex. But this type of Phra Khun Paen amulet had created controversies in the Buddhist Council in Thailand. An example of this controversial piece is actually a beautiful piece of art. This batch was named "Coyote" the word defining ambient nightlife with plentiful of drinks, seductive women and good sex.

From a collector's point-of-view, there is nothing serious about this amulet. But imagine if a girl that you have been courting by using a casanova amulet were to accidentally see this explicit amulet hanging on your neck, the impression and personal reputation may be damaging. However, it is up to individual's taste in choosing what type of Phra Khun Paen to adore. We will not make any judgement whether it's right or wrong because the choice is in the mind of the beholder. Khun Paen after all is the most powerful charming taslisman ever created.
