About Kary Adam

Originally from San Diego, California, Kary Adam lived in the “Gem Capital of the World” - Bangkok, Thailand, sourcing local gem stones and working with local Metal Smiths on his designs from 2001 until August 2015.

His relationship with Gems and Jewelry started in 1997 when he took a trip to Asia and stopped in Bangkok for 2 weeks. 

While there, he bought a 23kt Thai gold necklace, something he had wanted since he was 14 years old and seen at a gem show in San Diego. On his first day back to work from that trip, seven of his co-workers asked Kary Adam to sell them his gold necklace. This gave him the idea that he should supply them with what they had asked for. Three months later he was back in Bangkok and bought more Thai Gold Jewelry and several loose Sapphires, leading
to several years of traveling back and forth, buying and learning about gemstones and gold, designing and having jewelry made, and selling the jewelry he had made in Thailand back in the USA to private clients. 

In July of 2001, he moved to Bangkok to study Gemology and base his production there. Now based in Washington State, Kary Adam continues to follow his passion for designing Unique Beautiful Custom Jewelry.
