What we hold
Corundum is the speciality: sapphire in every Ceylon colour, and ruby. Beyond it sits the island's wider range, where our Southeast Asian buyers concentrate. Every lot carries an item ID, measurements, treatment status and origin. Prices are shown to registered trade.
Current selection on request: we send what we hold, or source and cut to your brief.
