Sri Lanka’s gem trade is one that has a fascinating history dating back more than 2,500 years. The oldest documented account is of a Sri Lankan Pink Sapphire set in a gold ring excavated from the Ai-Khanoum archaeological site in Afghanistan, thought to be nearly 2,300 years old.

 Across the centuries passed since then, we see Sri Lankan colored gems and precious stones (particularly the CeylonSapphires) imbuing beauty of rare magnitude to works of jewellery from around the world.

From the Byzantine era to the days of the Ming Dynasty and more recently, British royalty, treasures from our mines have continuously served as statements of importance and opulence.

experience the still enduring legacy of Sri Lankan gems and the beauty that features them. Join us.

About Crystal Systems

What comes to mind when you think of crystals? Many people might visualize beautiful, mineral objects with smooth faces in regular geometric patterns. Others might imagine elegant glassware. For gemologists, the scientific definition of a crystal goes right to the atomic level. A crystal is a solid whose atoms are arranged in a "highly ordered" repeating pattern. These patterns are called crystal systems. If a mineral has its atoms arranged in one of them, then that mineral is a crystal.

All minerals form in one of seven crystal systems: isometric, tetragonal, orthorhombic, monoclinic, triclinic, hexagonal, and trigonal. Each is distinguished by the geometric parameters of its unit cell, the arrangement of atoms repeated throughout the solid to form the crystal object we can see and feel.
