Noppakao, the ultimate significant gemstones, is the
original Thai name specially coined for the pagoda shaped top
decorated piece that comes either as a ring, earrings or a pendant
adorned with nine glittering gemstones : diamond, ruby, emerald,
yellow sapphire, garnet, blue sapphire, moonstone, zircon and
cat’s eye.
In the ancient times, Thai people preferred to wear
Noppakao ornaments as they believed that the power of
gemstones could empower their lives and raise their fortunes, as
well as prevent them from any danger and sickness. In Astrology,
Noppakao is the symbol of planets with the belief that it can
influence the fortune of the people who wear them. In the past,
only the kings and royal family were allowed to wear Noppakao
ornaments.
Nowadays, Noppakao has gained its popularity
among Thai people and foreign tourists for its
wonderful power under the shining beauty of
nine-star glittering gemstones.
