It is not know for sure when the Emerald Buddha was carved however judging from the appearance and style one could conclude it was carved in Northern Thailand not much earlier than the fifteenth century. 
The History of Bangkok, Thailand

The history of Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, Asia since 1782, is quite fascinating and also informs us how the royal family came to be and how they have remained a ceremonious factor to this day.

The original name of the city was Krung Thep, which meant "City of Angels". Bangkokmeans "plum orchard", and that was appropriate because it was once a tiny trading Palaces in Thailandvillage in the midst of wild plum trees. Also, Bangkok means "village on the bank of a river" and kok means "wild olive". The city's very long real name also means The Magnificent City of the Nine Stories, The King's Throne, The Immortal's Great City, etc.
