Every weekend the streets of Chanthaburi fill with dealers, brokers and buyers from around the world.

Why Chanthaburi

The town has been a centre for cutting and trading corundum for generations. Rubies from Mozambique and sapphires from Sri Lanka and Madagascar all pass through here.

How buying works

Stones are shown in small paper parcels. We examine them in daylight and negotiate quietly.

Travelling with clients

Some clients join us on these trips to choose their stone in person — an experience they never forget.
