A family business founded in early 70s, spanning over two generations with four long decades of experience as a traditional Sapphire miner, dealer and exporter, CeySapphires International is one of the leading Trader providing variety of Colored Gemstones especially Ceylon Natural Sapphires.
Our 48 years of humble and steady history began at China Fort, widely known as "Patte", a famous Gem Market in Ceylon, located in Beruwala, just 100km far or two-hour travelling distance from The Gem Capital of the Island, Ratnapura. At late 70s, we were known as one of the leading suppliers of Geuda (a variety of Corundum, primarily found in Ceylon, of which color can be enhanced drastically with heat treatment) for buyers from Thailand, Singapore and Japan. And the Founder of the Company, Mr. Al-Haj A.W.M. Thowfeek earned the nickname, “Geuda Thowfeek Haji” (ගෙවුඩ තව්පි මුදලාලි) because of his deep knowledge about Geuda and the satisfied price he gave for each stone at that time (at a time where Geuda Stones were considered worthless and valueless).
We mine Natural Sapphires from our own local gem mines and also purchase directly from the miners from all over the places of the Island. The Fine Calibrated Natural Sapphires are exported to International Clients all over the world under the trade name “CeySapphires™”. We provide Natural Sapphires of all colors including Rare Sapphires and Semi Precious Stones as well.
Currently there are several licensed Sapphire mines in process with legal permissions from state authorities, NGJA. And the Company is very keen on environmental impacts of mining and always ensures the stones are conflict-free and mined in green & ethical ways.
CeySapphires International is a Licensed Dealer of National Gem & Jewellery Authority, Lifetime Member of Gemmologists Association of Sri Lanka and Gemological Association of University of Moratuwa.
