Sri Lanka is one of the most important gemstone-producing areas in the world today. Rubies, moonstones and garnets produced here are also highly sought-after, along with the extraction and refining of dazzling sapphires. These colorful gems will have their sparkle restored after careful processing by skilled lapidarists.
