About Us
Directly from Chanthaburi
Gem-Fountain operates directly at the gemstone market of Chanthaburi, Thailand — one of the three major global centers where colored gemstones are processed and traded, alongside Jaipur (India) and Idar-Oberstein (Germany).
A large share of today’s rough material — especially from Africa — enters the international supply chain as rough and is then brought to these hubs for sorting, cutting, matching, and distribution. Being based in Chanthaburi means we work inside the daily flow of the trade, with access to fresh arrivals, real market variety, and professional deal structures.
A Family Heritage Built on Gemstones
Our family roots are deeply connected to Chanthaburi and the colored gemstone trade. About 60 years ago, our grandmother began working as a gem cutter and sorter, building the skills and market knowledge that still shape our standards today.
About 40 years ago, our cousin started operating a ruby mine in Bo Rai, historically known for "Siam Rubies." From there, we supplied local cutting workshops with rough and delivered cut goods into the Chanthaburi market.
For decades, our work was primarily offline wholesale — face-to-face trading, fast professional deals, and long-term relationships built on consistency and trust. Today, the younger generation is expanding this heritage into the online world, making Chanthaburi’s market access available to clients worldwide with quality you can trust and authenticity you can verify.
Gem-Fountain reflects the reality of the market by offering two clearly separated product lines.
Fine Gems
Our Fine Gems are curated single stones, pairs, matched sets, and layouts that are finished and refined by experienced cutters. We focus on beauty and performance: proportions, symmetry, brilliance, and a clean, honest presentation.
This selection ranges from affordable precision-cut gems to collector-grade stones ideal for fine jewelry, collectors, and investors.
Market Direct
Our Market Direct selection offers parcels of cut stones and rough as traded in Chanthaburi. These goods are sold without additional reworking: cutting quality may vary and native cuts are common, where weight retention is prioritized for fast valuation and trade flow.
This is the cost-efficient way professionals buy — perfect for cutters, dealers, jewelers, and resellers who optimize stones via repolish or recut.
