“Ratnapura is world-renowned for producing some of the finest blue sapphires ever discovered, prized for their remarkable clarity, brilliance, and naturally rich hues that range from velvety cornflower blue to deep royal blue. Unlike stones treated elsewhere, sapphires from this region are celebrated for their natural luster and exceptional durability, making them highly sought after by jewelers, collectors, and connoisseurs worldwide.”
At Serendib GEMS, we proudly carry forward this legacy from the heart of Sri Lanka’s “City of Gems.” As a premier exporter, our mission is to connect the world with authentic, ethically sourced gemstones—crafted by nature and perfected by generations of Sri Lankan expertise.
Our collection features handpicked sapphires, rubies, emeralds, and other precious stones, each selected for its brilliance, rarity, and authenticity. We work directly with local miners and cutters in Ratnapura and surrounding gem fields, ensuring sustainable practices that respect both the land and the people who bring these treasures to light.
Our Specialization: The Blue Sapphire
While we offer a diverse range of precious gemstones, our true expertise lies in the sourcing and export of Sri Lanka’s legendary blue sapphires. Known as the “King of Gems,” the blue sapphire is cherished for its breathtaking spectrum of hues—from the delicate, velvety cornflower blue to the regal depths of royal blue.
Each sapphire we export is meticulously examined for its clarity, brilliance, and authenticity. Unlike many sapphires treated elsewhere in the world, ours are treasured for their natural luster and enduring value. These stones are not only symbols of beauty but also of wisdom, nobility, and timeless prestige.
Whether set in a crown, an engagement ring, or a collector’s showcase, a Serendib blue sapphire represents more than a gemstone—it is a heritage of Sri Lanka, carrying centuries of tradition, authenticity, and natural wonder.
Our Export Process
As a fully licensed Gem Business and Gem Exporter, Serendib GEMS ensures that every gemstone we deliver is not only genuine but also traded in compliance with international regulations and ethical standards.
Each gem undergoes a rigorous certification process, often verified by internationally recognized gemological laboratories. This guarantees our clients receive gemstones with full documentation of origin, quality, and authenticity.
Our export services cover every step of the journey—from careful selection, secure packaging, and customs clearance to insured global shipping. We partner with trusted logistics providers to deliver gemstones safely and efficiently to destinations across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and the Americas.
Whether you are ordering a single investment-grade sapphire or a bulk consignment for a jewelry house, we ensure the process is transparent, secure, and seamless. Our reputation is built on trust, and our clients rely on us for timely deliveries, fair pricing, and unmatched quality.
With both a Gem Business License and a Gem Export License, Serendib GEMS is committed to legal and transparent trade. Every stone is carefully certified, and our clients receive full assurance of origin, quality, and authenticity.
