When we went to Bangkok two years ago, we visited a one stop jewelry shop. Why one stop shop? It's like a factory of jewelry. In one of their rooms, you will see a raw gemstone which has still some gravel on top of it and you go to the next room, you'll see a gemstone being polished and then when you go to a different room, you'll see a polished gemstone being placed in a gold or white gold metal which afterwards turn into a beautiful jewelry. Some jewels can pass already as diamonds international . Then on the last room, that's where they inspect all the finished products before putting them on the display room for customers to view.
Raw red rubies and blue sapphires
Here's what they look like when they're polished already...
