Why This Exhibition is Different
Not a Shop.
Not a Trade Fair.
Most people will never have the opportunity to hold a natural, unheated Ceylon sapphire. Or understand why a padparadscha is considered one of the rarest objects on earth. This exhibition exists to change that — bringing the source directly to you, with no pressure and no retail markups.
I
Handle stones that are genuinely impossible to find elsewhere
Unheated, untreated sapphires, alexandrite and cobalt spinel — each sourced personally from certified mines. These are not catalogue pieces.
II
Speak directly with the people who pulled them from the ground
No sales reps, no intermediaries. Haris and his family have worked the mines of Beruwala for over 50 years — and they'll be in the room with you.
III
Understand gemstones as a store of value — or simply as beauty
Whether you're a collector, an investor, or simply curious — there's no expectation. Come, learn, and leave with a deeper understanding of these remarkable stones.
IV
Commission a bespoke piece — starting with the stone itself
Choosing a stone for an engagement ring or heirloom piece? This is the ideal place to begin — seeing and feeling the stone before it's ever set.
"Every stone you'll see at this exhibition has been touched by Haris himself — selected by hand at the mine."
