Thailand: A Global Hub for Colored Gemstones
Thailand is renowned worldwide as a leader in the colored gemstone industry. Known for its expertise in sourcing and cutting stones, it has earned a reputation for producing high-quality rubies, sapphires, spinels, garnets, and tourmalines with exceptional color and clarity. The country's skilled craftsmanship, combined with a rich history of gem trading, has made it a gemstone capital for both collectors and designers globally.
At Pinthai, we embrace this tradition by blending family gemology expertise with modern, in-house craftsmanship to offer you the very best in colored gemstones and fine jewelry.

Where the Magic Happens: Our Bangkok Workshop
What sets Pinthai apart is our ability to do everything under one roof. From rough stone to finished jewelry, our workshop in Bangkok handles it all.
We cut, polish, and shape each gemstone in-house, giving us full control over quality, brilliance, and precision. Whether it’s a rare color-shifting Alexandrite, a pear-shaped Paraiba, or a clean hexagonal sapphire — we specialize in custom fancy cuts, matched pairs, and precision finishing.
That same space is also home to our jewelry manufacturing. Every ring, pendant, or earring is designed to fit its gemstone perfectly — not the other way around. This ensures harmony between cut and setting, and lets us create one-of-a-kind fine jewelry with thoughtful craftsmanship and modern design.
Why Bangkok Is Known for Colored Gemstones
Bangkok has long held its reputation as a global colored gemstone capital. With access to gemstone rough from around the world and generations of skilled artisans, Thailand remains a trusted source for buyers, jewelers, and collectors.
What makes Bangkok stand out?
- Expert lapidary work — The city is home to master cutters known for maximizing a stone’s natural beauty through smart shaping and polish.
- Proximity to gemstone-rich countries — Thailand’s central location makes it a key trading hub for rough from Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Africa, and beyond.
- Strong infrastructure — With established gem labs, reliable export systems, and a culture of gem trading, Bangkok offers both quality and trust.
This is where experience meets opportunity — and why international buyers consistently turn to Bangkok for colored gems.
