Handuni's Gems & Jewellery Exports (Pvt) Ltd

I do not recommend this store if you’re looking for an honest jeweler. It is true we got our money back after we went back to complain about the authenticity of the stone bought.

Just a tip: is the place approved by the National Gem and Jewel Authority?

Authentic stores are approved by this authority. Nowhere does the store mentions that it is approved. Also when you buy there they provide you with an invoice under the name of another store, Gamini jewelers. The certificate that claims the stone is real does not mention that the store is approved by the National Gem and Jewel Authority.

For foreigners be careful not to fall into the trap that your driver can bring you here with the notion that it is a genuine museum.

Handuni's Gems in Sri Lanka offers an exceptional gem-buying experience that is marked by an exemplary staff, with a special mention to Mr. Sumith Pushpakumara. His expertise stands out as he not only assisted us in our purchases but also provided comprehensive education on gems. Mr. Pushpakumara went the extra mile, offering examples of gems of varying qualities and imparting knowledge about the mining procedures. The guided tour of the workshop, where skilled jewelers and designers operate, added a valuable layer to our understanding.

The warmth and hospitality extended by the owner, Mr. Gamini, and his beautiful wife, Mrs. Nandani, were noteworthy. Their welcoming demeanor made us feel like family throughout our visit. The genuine care and personalized attention contributed significantly to the positive atmosphere of the gem shop. It is evident that Handuni's Gems is committed to transparency, with no hint of fraudulent practices.

I highly recommend Handuni's Gems to anyone seeking genuine and high-quality gemstones. The combination of an informed and attentive staff, educational insights, and the warm hospitality of the owners makes it a standout gem shop in Sri Lanka.

This is a wholesale gems and jewellery showroom. They procure the gems from their own mines, cut them, and prepare jewellery with them. They set the precious/semi-precious stones in sterling silver, white gold or gold. They can supply these gems as a wholesale or on retail basis.
The visit to their showroom begins with a short video presentation on how the precious stones are mined. After which you will be shown how the rough stones are cut and shaped to bring out the best shine, in their gem-cutting and polishing work shop. Next, you will be taken around the gem museum with the wonderful collection of precious and semi precious stones of different varieties.
At last, you are taken to the show room where they sell either the finished stones or jewellery.
Now comes the important part of the entire exercise: the purchase of jewelry and or stones by you.
Now please note that you need to drive a hard bargain. You can certainly start at atleast one third the cost which they will quote and mind you, never, ever pay more than half the price of what they quote. They will also provide a certificate regarding the quality of the gems/jewellery that you have purchased with them.
I hope my experience with them will help others in their purchases. Happy purchasing!
