ABOUT CEYLON GEMS
Sri Lanka’s gem industry has a very long and colorful history. Sri Lanka was
affectionately known as Ratna-Dweepa which means Gem Island. The name is a
reflection of its natural wealth. Marco Polo wrote that the island had the best
sapphires, topazes, amethysts, and other gems in the world. Ptolemy, the 2nd
century astronomer recorded that beryl and sapphire were the mainstays of Sri
Lanka’s gem industry. Records from sailors that visited the island state that
they brought back “jewels of Serendib”. Serendib was the ancient name
given to the island by middle – eastern and Persian traders that crossed the
Indian Ocean to trade gems from Sri Lanka to the East during the 4th and 5th
century.
Sri Lanka, geologically speaking is an extremely old country. Ninety percent of
the rocks of the island are of Precambrian age, 560 million to 2,400 million
years ago. The gems form in sedimentary residual gem deposits, eluvial
deposits, metamorphic deposits, skarn, and calcium-rich rocks. Other gems are
of magmatic origin.
Residual deposits are mainly found in flood plains of rivers and streams. The
metamorphic types of gems constitute 90% of the gem deposits in Sri Lanka. Sri
Lanka has the highest density of gem deposits compared to its landmass.
Ratnapura contains the most gem deposits and derived its name from the gem
industry. Ratnapura means “city of gems”.
The blue sapphires from Sri Lanka are known as Ceylon Sapphires. Ceylon
Sapphires are reportedly unique in color, clarity, and luster compared to the
blue sapphires from other countries.
