But next to this original Bangkok silk market nowadays you can also go to one of the higher end shops or go for cheaper options at some other markets or shopping malls. However we really suggest you to visit the original Bangkok silk market as well so you can compare quality and prices.
Thai silk is widely appreciated for its outstanding quality, affordability and amazing designs. But this is actually polyester. The colours and patterns can be bought by the yard, or as ready-made clothing or souvenirs like shawls, handbags, elephant dolls, photo frames, bed covers and much more. At the Bangkok silk market and silkshops prices and quality do vary greatly. Below you will find some good places to get quality silk.
The best place is still the Bangkok silk market inside the Old Siam Shopping mall. Here you can find any item that you are looking for. The styles are a bit old fashioned sometimes and the shops mainly target Thai people but if you are looking for fair prices and real silk the Bangkok silk market is the place to go. Here you will find all kinds of fabrics.
From cotton to wool and silk. Located in some backstreet alleys it can be crowded and hot there but if you love to bargain and hunt for great items, this is your heaven. Jim Thompson has a few shops in Bangkok, stand alone shops and shops in the big malls like Siam Paragon.
If you don't know Old Siam Mall, it's an interesting place that a lot of middle-class locals seem to use - fabrics, dress-making, gold and jewelry, cheap ready-made clothes, leather goods, guns etc - and of course eating places. There is parking below, but we always go on public transport.
We're looking forward to the opening late next year of the westward extension of the underground blue line - there will be a stop very close to Old Siam Mall, two stops along from Hua Lamphong. Yes Old Siam, but also the nearby ChinaWorld Mall which has been completely taken over by fabric sellers mainly Indian.
Also look around the adjoining streets, lots of fabric shops. By webfact Started 11 hours ago. By webfact Started February 1. By webfact Started Monday at AM. By webfact Started 13 hours ago.
