Welcome to Gem Sri Lanka – the gateway to one of the world’s most celebrated gemstone industries.
Organized by the Ceylon Gem And Jewellery Traders Association, Gem Sri Lanka is an annual showcase dedicated to unveiling the brilliance, diversity, and legacy of Sri Lanka’s rich gemstone heritage. By connecting local artisans with international buyers, we offer a unique exhibition experience rooted in tradition and innovation. Hosted in the Shangri-la Colombo, renowned for its centuries-old gem trade, our event serves as both a business platform and cultural homage to the island’s precious gem resources.
Each year, Gem Sri Lanka gathers exhibitors and buyers from around the world to explore an impressive selection of gemstones, from exquisite sapphires to vibrant spinels, tsavorites, and beyond. With deep-rooted traditions in mining, cutting, and trading, the Sri Lankan gemstone industry stands as a cornerstone of authenticity and quality, celebrated globally for its expertise and ethics.
Gem Sri Lanka roots to the legacy of the Chinafort Gem Market, one of the largest open-air gem trading hubs, providing a dynamic marketplace with the authentic feel of Sri Lanka’s gem culture. Our event includes a variety of curated fine quality sapphire, gem lots, exclusive exhibitions, and a gala experience, all set within the picturesque Shangri-la Colombo. With a focus on comfort, security, and access, we ensure a welcoming atmosphere for buyers, exhibitors, and gem enthusiasts.
Join us at Gem Sri Lanka, organized by CGJTA, to experience the artistry, tradition, and legacy of the island’s gemstones. From the enduring beauty of sapphires to the energy of our vibrant gem market, Gem Sri Lanka is where the world’s finest gemstones and the next generation of gem traders come together.
