tonyG111 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Hey guys, I am creating a male jewellery company and I’m looking for a Thai company to manufacture the pieces (using sterling silver). Can anyone offer any advise as to where I would begin to look for said manufacturing company? I'm in Bangkok at the moment. Thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malt25 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Not meant to be a flame or negative response, but ! You are creating a company & you have not sourced a manufacturer for your product as yet ? You think maybe the cart before the horse ? I'd be doing lots of homework & research well before starting the company. But hey, that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldcarguy Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Is there an area in Bangkok that does this kind of work ? I have seen a few stores around the Chinatown / Indian area that sell the tools for casting waxes etc , and other jewellery type work , but I have not seen any places that do the actual work of making waxes , putting the waxes on a "tree" , investment burn-out and pouring the metal , maybe this is done out of town , or a hidden back alley I have not found yet..... But I am always looking :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shot Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I’ll assume you are looking for shops that sell “blanks” and or do custom work with those and sell the completed product? There are several places in the basement of Pratunam Complex, and some on Kawson Road. There are many shops in China Town; however I believe many of those buy from the other areas I mentioned. Most of these are family run shops. Pricing for an “outsider” might be??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p_brownstone Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 There are a lot of shops selling Silver Jewelry in Charoen Krung (New Road) - mainly near the junction with Sathorn Road. I do not know if they have their own manufacturing facilities of course. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1FinickyOne Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Are you looking to buy already created styles? Or to have your own styles crafted? Are you looking for small runs or to buy in volume? I used to export SS from Thailand, mostly had sources in Bangkok. There is absolutely nothing like doing your own legwork. I did this many years ago, but if today, I would start with a specific google search and then walk the streets - probably khao sarn road will net you some connections, maybe New road and Chinatown area as well... you might even try JJ weekend market... just pound the pavement, ask questions - go shopping.

NYGuy816 Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 There are plenty in Bangkok, but it is best that you review their portfolio and know their track record fully well. Quality is a must too. Unless you are aiming silver jewelry pieces like the ones that Deific Jewelry offers (purely handcrafted, impressive designs and craftsmanship) then you may likely have an edge over the others. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's a normal business model for them to shop around for manufacturers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash999 Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 There is a very large jewelry fair twice a year and sterling silver is a huge part of it given Thailand's strength. Suggest you wait for the fair and walk it to shop manufacturers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
