Pearls in Thailand

[lisamla]

I'm not quite sure where this belongs...

I am currently living in Bangkok and interested in the opportunity to buy/view pearls in Bangkok. I did a search on the Internet for trade shows/pearl districts but didn?t find much. I did find that there are some farms in the southern island area. Does anyone have any more information for me? I am not in business; this is strictly a personal interest.

Thank you.

Hello - I am from Bangkok Thailand

Tod is a good friend of my sister and he's a jewelry designer in Bangkok. I think he might be able to point you to the right direction. He designed a 15mm White South Sea w/ diamonds pendant and a 15mm White South Sea w/ diamonds ring for me. The pearls he chose for me were very beautiful. His contact number in Thailand is 866-1127 or 848-2625.

I know a couple of good pearl vendors in Bangkok:

1) All kind of pearls & pearl jewelry: the store at MBK mall (phone 081-7007366)
2) Fresh water pearls: the store at Ja-Tu-Jark market (phone 084-7173543)

There are other companies selling/farming pearls in Thailand:

Good Luck!

I am with the same question - where can I buy pearls in Bangkok? I'd like to buy a neckless and earings for myself, just one set, not for business.

depends, you have to specify what you want to buy, South Sea, Akoya or Tahiti pearls or Chinese fresh water pearls
