Siamrington is pleased to announce that its extensive collection of authentic, natural gemstones is now open for clients and visitors to experience firsthand at our studio.
A Diverse Collection of Natural Rarities
The collection features a wide range of natural gemstones, including Teal Sapphires, Blue Sapphires, Green Sapphires, Burmese and Siamese Rubies, Spinels, and Emeralds. Each gemstone possesses its own distinct character.
Siamrington, Siamese ruby are not sourced through standard commercial gem markets. Instead, the focus is on recovering vintage rubies that currently exist as private family heirlooms.
The most difficult aspect of this process is the acquisition itself. In rural areas, particularly within the northern provinces of Thailand, these gemstones have been passed down through several generations. They are often kept within families for decades. Sourcing them requires locating these specific households, building trust within the community, and negotiating for stones.
The objective during this phase is to update the jewelry's structure while strictly preserving the original cut, condition, and historical integrity of the vintage rubies.
Siamrington works closely with traditional communities located in the western provinces, Chiang Rai in the north, and the established gem-trading hub of Chanthaburi in the east.
For enthusiasts of "color zoning," we highly recommend an in-person viewing, as it allows for a detailed observation of the unique color layers and depths that define each stone.
Furthermore, the true charm of natural gemstones is best revealed under varying light conditions, the shift between indoor lighting and natural sunlight provides different perspectives on color and brilliance that digital media cannot fully capture.
The Philosophy of Selection
Kroekkiat, representing the brand’s vision, believes that the relationship between a gemstone and its owner is intuitive.
“I believe that people choose gemstones, and gemstones choose people,” Kroekkiat states. “When clients choose a stone in person, they can truly sense which one is right for them. This is an experiential process that photos or videos simply cannot replicate.”
