Of all the things we humans buy that signify romance, jewelry comes first and foremost in most people’s minds. Jewelry in Thailand is widely available at prices ranging from affordable costume jewelry to extremely expensive heirloom pieces. If you seek precious and semi-precious gems and colored gemstone jewelry, Thailand (and Bangkok in particular) is one of the world's prime markets in the world to buy it.

Thai craftsmen are world-class when it comes to cutting and polishing rough stones for maximum sparkle and beauty. Thailand is also one of the world leaders with regards to heat treated gem stones particularly ruby and sapphire.

If your whim leans towards the gilded, walk around the Yaowarat Chinatown area, where there is a multitude of the iconic gold shops dressed in red.Make sure you shop around before you buy something special for your love; you never know what treasures you will uncover in Thailand.
