Is Silver Cheap in Thailand for Jewelry?
Generally yes — especially at wholesale volumes. Thailand’s efficient supply chain, lower labor costs, and local access to skilled setters and finishers let manufacturers offer competitive prices. However, very low-priced tourist items may be plated or lower purity, so always confirm the materials and calculate the landed cost (production + shipping + duties) when comparing suppliers globally.
How to compare prices
- Ask for per-gram or per-piece factory pricing.
- Include tooling, sampling, shipping, and customs in your calculation.
- Run a pilot production to validate quality vs. price before scaling.
