Our gems reach a variety of precious and semi-precious stones from quartz to sapphires, each with diverse shades of color and size as desired. Among other mines in Sri Lanka, the depths of Palmadulla, Kuruvita and Ratnapura, have given birth to the majority of the gems we possess today. We also trade in casting and hand crafted jewelry by expert craftsmen resulting in the hallmark of quality that has travelled down decades, exclusive for products and services offered by our company only.
We have been able to stun our customers, who remain loyal to us, with designs that reflect beauty, luster, desirability and perfection. We recognize that with gems and jewellery, not only do people bring in value to their lives but deep emotion with each hand crafted and carefully designed piece that is meant to last forever.
