Our family hails from a generation of gem traders in Sri Lanka where there is a popular saying in the gem trade: “it’s not what you know, it’s who you know”. As such we are uniquely placed to know the ins and outs of the gem trade in Sri Lanka and are able to appraise and procure high quality, ethically sourced stones from reputed and trusted sources.
From Mine to Market
This applies to the entire process, from ethically mined stones; to highly skilled gemstone lapidaries, who have generations of experience cutting stones using the equipment and processes learned from their forefathers resulting in high quality cuts.
