3. Top Quality in Cutting & Setting

Meeting world standards of quality in cutting and setting gems

and jewelry is the major reason for Thailand’s success, aided by

a highly skilled workforce with outstanding abilities in setting and

design. Such skills ensure consistency in quality and reliability in

production of each piece of jewelry enhanced by assured after-sales

service.

4. Trendy Fashionable Silver Jewelry

Gold and silver are important elements in the country’s

growing exports of high quality gems and jewelry products.

However, a long tradition of Thai artisans working in high purity

silver, with intricate designs and superb embellishments, is now

generating growing international interest in the country’s silver

creations as trendy White Wave fashion items.

5. Traditional Wisdom & Modern Technology

Thailand has developed a special heat treatment technique

to enhance the quality of colored stones, increasing their brightness

and clarity. The industry is well supported by the Gem and Jewelry

Institute of Thailand, an outstanding analytical laboratory that

is ranked one of the top seven in the world, also recognized by

CIBJO (The World Jewellery Confederation). Its experienced

gemologists are able to analyze, grade and authenticate

gemstones, trace country of origin and provide internationally

recognized certification for exporters.
