Heartwarming hands on Sri Lankan experience

sg7wmfv8kh, Jan 2026

We absolutely loved this heartwarming, traditional Sri Lankan experience! It was a privilege to be shown how the family business is run with 40+ years of experience in making jewellery, and to make our own rings with them. We wanted a jewellery making experience that allowed us to take part and not just watch, and this was perfect. The location is away from Galle Fort, but worth it for the experience of being thoughtfully welcomed into the family home and meeting lots of the family, including their lovely children. A Sri Lankan lunch and tea were also kindly provided. Their passion in sharing with others what they do shone through and we hope this new business venture continues to be a success for them.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Dear Guest, Thank you for such a wonderful review! We are thrilled that you felt at home with the family and enjoyed creating your own rings. It was a privilege to host you for lunch and share our passion for jewelry making. We wish you all the best and hope you cherish your handmade souvenirs! Many Thanks, Prabhath

Super cool jewelry class in Galle!

Gianni_P, Nov 2025

What a unique experience! The class starts with the choice of the gem, explaining how to recognize the fake ones You will take part to the entire process, from the casting, understanding the making of the alloy, to the modeling and finishing knowing the tools, you will have an active part in the making, and you will be helped, for those parts of the process too difficult to be done by you, you will just watch obviously You will come out with a unique piece which you will have taken part in the making of Super friendly and professional staff Really suggested!

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Ayubowan Sir, We appreciate you highlighting the different stages of the workshop, from gem selection and recognizing fakes to casting, alloying, and modeling. We believe that understanding the entire process—including the technical parts and the tools—is what makes the finished piece so meaningful. We are delighted that you felt the staff was super friendly and professional, and that you came away with a unique piece you helped create. Receiving such a positive first review is a fantastic motivator for our team. We are so glad you suggested the experience! Stuti, Prabhath.
