Pearl
While Japan has traditionally been the Asian center for the cultured pearl industry, Phuket has, in the past couple decades, become the preferred site in Southeast Asia for pearl cultivation. Each year, hundreds of these precious items are sent around the world as a valuable export item as the quality and lustre are in high demand. Most of the larger jewelers, such as P & C Jewelry in Patong, carry an exclusive line of pearls, at a fraction of the price charged in Europe or even Japan. Careful buyers can choose from a wide range of colors and sizes.
