Our story
A Legacy Born in the Gem Fields of Sri Lanka
Based in Hatton Garden, London's historic jewellery district, I am a gem merchant with over 20 years of experience in the international gemstone trade. The gemstone business is both my family heritage and my personal passion, with roots that trace back to Sri Lanka—one of the world's most renowned sources of fine gemstones. I was introduced to the trade at an early age, growing up in a family deeply connected to gemstones. This early exposure fostered a deep appreciation for their beauty, value, and cultural significance, as well as a strong foundation in traditional gem sourcing, craftsmanship, and ethical practices shaped by my Sri Lankan heritage. Over the years, I have worked closely with trusted suppliers and clients around the world, sourcing high-quality gemstones and ensuring authenticity, transparency, and trust in every transaction. My approach to business is built on integrity, long-term relationships, and a commitment to excellence. Today, I continue to carry forward my family tradition in Hatton Garden, serving an international clientele while honouring the heritage, expertise, and values that define my Sri Lankan roots.
In 1998, we brought this expertise to London, establishing Ceylon Gems as a bridge between Sri Lanka's rich gemstone heritage and the discerning tastes of the international market. Our London location allows us to serve clients from around the globe while maintaining our authentic connection to the source.
Today, we stand as one of London's most respected gemstone specialists, serving luxury brands, discerning collectors, and individuals who appreciate the story behind each stone.
