    My husband purchased a sapphire ring for me from this company for which we paid roughly $15,000. They claimed that the sapphire was not heat treated. (If it were heat treated it would be worth substantially less.) We discussed the fact that we'd have it professionally appraised when we returned home. We took it to a professional appraiser who sent it to a lab to determine whether or not it had been heat treated. The professional appraiser said the cost of replacing the ring at a fine jewelry store in San Francisco would be about $9,000--not the $15,000 we were charged.. The lab said the sapphire had been heat treated to improve the color of the stone. As a result, the professional appraiser said the cost of replacing the ring at a top jewelry store in San Francisco would be about $9,000--not the $15,000 we were charged. We sent all the information to Pemadasas. They asked for more information which we forwarded also. We now cannot even get any reply from them. I would strongly recommend not buying anything from this company since they musrepresented their product and when confronted with the misrepresentation will not respond to emails..

    We purchased a 2 ct blue sapphire ring at Premadasa. Mr. Kalu our sales person was extremely nice and we had a great experience. We got our ring appraisal done in the US by an independent gem laboratory and had to learn that while the sapphire is real and of great quality, that the workmanship on the ring is very poor. We will keep the stone but have to get a new ring which adds a significant amount of money to a ring that was already valued at only 85% of what we paid. It's a nice place with a great atmosphere but their items are slightly overpriced. Would only recommend for buying loose stones after heavy bargaining.

    I heard it’s an old gem shop. Ambience is really nice. The people are here are very cautious. Am not a gem expert. So no comment on that. I felt a bit insecure when I realised there was an option of intense bargaining. If you are an expert it’s a great shop.

    **Do not buy jewellery here**. They owe me 1800 euros and are not replying to my emails. They are also deleting bad reviews i have posted here about my experience in their Dambulla store.

    (Translated by Google) It is a well-established jewelry store with staff who can speak Japanese. Ruth is not cheap as a local price, but it will be cheaper depending on negotiations. However, as for jewelry, we recommend that you make a decision by checking well whether there is no problem with the quality of stone and workmanship. I got an inquiry about the stock of Alexandrite and brought it immediately from other stores. There was no such thing as forcibly proceeding with purchase. (Original) 日本語の話せるスタッフがいる老舗の宝石店です。ルースは現地価格としてはそこまで安くないですが、交渉次第で安くなります。 但し、ジュエリーに関しては石と細工の品質に問題ないか、良く確認して決める事をおすすめします。 アレキサンドライトの在庫を問い合わせたところ、他の店舗からすぐに持ってきて見せてもらえました。 無理に購入をすすめる様なことはなかったです。
