Gem Island (Sri Lanka)

Sri Lanka is the top source of finest Gemstones to the global market and exports. In the 12th century, Marco Polo wrote that the island had the best sapphires, topazes, amethysts, and other gems in the world. Geologically, Sri Lanka is an extremely old country. Ninety percent of the rocks of the island are of Precambrian age, 560 million to 2,400 million years ago.

It has been estimated that nearly 25% of the total land area of Sri Lanka is potentially gem-bearing, making Sri Lanka one of the countries with the highest density of gem deposits compared to its landmass

Highest Quality Gemstones

We purchase our gemstones directly from mine owners, from whom we have longstanding relationships spanning a number of generations.. All gems are inspected and verified by our gemologists before we purchase them.

We have raw gemstones, Cabochon Gemstones, and finished gemstones that were cut and polished by well experienced and professional lapidarist. They know what shape, form and style of cut will best suit each stone.  Gemstones are cut and polished with high precision Gem Lapidary machineries which are manufactured by our company. 

The cutting and polishing reveals the magical luster, color and beauty of the gem stone, which after rechecking at our laboratory, enters the showroom.
