Nimna Gem International (PVT) LTD
From 31st August to 2nd September 2026, Ratnapura, the historic “City of Gems,” welcomed gemstone traders, jewelry designers, and collectors from across Sri Lanka and beyond for Gem City Rathnapura 2026. Held at the Grand Silver Ray Hotel in Lellopitiya, the event brought buyers face to face with the people who mine, cut, and trade Sri Lanka’s finest stones.
Nimna Gem International (PVT) LTD was proud to take part at Booth No. 33, close to the source of the gems that have made Sri Lanka famous for over two thousand years.

At Booth No. 33, visitors could see a carefully selected collection of natural Ceylon gemstones, including:

Each stone reflects the natural beauty of Ratnapura’s gem-bearing earth, refined through skilled cutting and polishing.
