We fly to Phuket on November 15th. Please tell me!
Completely confused with the weather. Someone says that November is already the very thing, someone writes that in November it is still stormy and rainy. Who to believe? I really want sunshine!
And yet, can someone advise me on the prices of products with precious stones? sapphires, emeralds, opals. I would like silver jewelry with stones, do they make these? and what is the cost of ordinary trinkets (exclusive stones are not interested)))
thank you in advance)

Jeanne, November is a great time to visit Phuket. It is not yet the peak of the season, when the number of tourists exceeds the maximum allowable standards for one wave, but the weather is already mild, there are no waves, and there is minimal rain.
The Similan Islands are already open at this time, which are closed during the off-season (during the wave).
So go ahead to Phuket.

Less rain, more sun. Currents can still be strong.
Products from silver with stones are made. I have not seen emeralds, but it makes no sense to buy them in Tai, they are imported. It is very profitable to buy sapphires in silver. The quality of products may not be very good, not exclusive, but for the sake of stones it is possible. I once bought a silver ring with 5 large blue sapphires for $100. In Kyiv, the jeweler rejected two stones, and three turned out to be very good, they were inserted into the product. The trick is that it is forbidden to export stones without a rim from Thailand. That's why they put it in cheap silver.
There are better products made of rhodium-plated silver, very similar to white gold. Usually I bring small elephants with two small sapphires to the daughters of girlfriends - an eye and a trunk, it costs $ 30.
If diamonds, even tiny ones, are inserted into the product, in addition to sapphires, the price immediately becomes very high, since diamonds are expensive there.

I will add that there are very interesting products with aquamarine and topaz.
And, if you are not a serious lady yet, then pay attention to multi-colored sapphires - yellow, pink. There are cool products with multi-colored stones, but they are usually so ... funny, for young girls :)

The export of stones from Thailand without a frame is not prohibited if there are documents confirming the legality of the purchase

Thank you very much for the useful information :) I will definitely look at the multi-colored pebbles :)
Tell me, is it really possible to buy jewelry with opal in Thailand? I read somewhere that they are there.
