5.00We had a fantastic time at this family run workshop. Right from booking, communication was excellent and informative regarding how to get there - an easy tuktuk from Galle Fort (less than 300R on PickMe). We chose to make a pendant and a ring (no pressure about buying certain stones), cost was 15,500R each for silver item with moonstone. The workshop was airconditioned and we were able to do hands on tasks including melting and pressing the silver, hammering and polishing the pieces. It was an amazing opportunity to witness a master craftsman at work (36 years making jewellery), and the whole family was involved in the process. We also received delicious juices and homemade snacks. We are delighted with our unique pieces of Sri Lankan jewellery, a wonderful and high quality souvenir, and highly recommend this activity.
A wholesome experience in Galle

5.00We had a wonderful afternoon with a family in their Sri Lankan home making jewellery. Such a wonderful experience for us both! Hemantha (dad @ primary jewellery marker) Ganesha (daughter @ wonderful host) Hiran (brother @ engagement officer 😆) & Champa (mother @ best coconut roti maker) We were able to take part and do some of the work to make a ring (for Phoenix) and pendants (for me x 3 with the initials “R” “P” & “N”) with Hemantha. He was able to show us his excellent skills in the craft to make our designs come to fruition and let us do some of the craft along the way. We were very happy to let him take over 😆 We were also able to see some jewel making tools used when you don’t have electricity (the power went out) such an amazing thing to experience
