Our Story

From the Mines of Ratnapura to the Heart of Europe
Welcome to Amanthi, where the timeless beauty of Sri Lankan gemstones meets the expertise of european jewelers and collectors.
​
Our journey begins in Ratnapura, Sri Lanka, the legendary City of Gems. I'm Amanthi, born and raised in this land where every stone holds a story. From a young age, I was immersed in the traditions of gem cutting, trading, and appreciation, developing a deep respect for the natural beauty and cultural significance of each gem.
Today, as a licensed gemstone dealer, I proudly carry forward this heritage with passion, integrity, and care.
​
Together with my husband Cyril, a native of France with a profound love for Sri Lanka, we decided to unite our cultures, values, and expertise to create something unique. Our shared vision gave birth to "Amanthi", a company rooted in connections: between continents, between people, and between the earth and its treasures.
At "Amanthi", we believe in more than just beautiful stones.
We are guided by strong, uncompromising values:
-
Ethical sourcing
-
Full traceability
-
Certified authenticity
-
Deep respect for every person behind the stone; from mine to market
​
We specialize in hand-selected Ceylon gems, chosen for their exceptional quality, beauty, and story.
​
But beyond gems, our mission is about people.
We are proud advocates for artisanal miners and small-scale gem traders in Sri Lanka, talented individuals who often lack access to fair markets and international recognition. Through our platform, we give them visibility, a voice, and a fair path to share their craft with the world.
​
At the same time, we serve jewelers, designers, and collectors across Europe and beyond, those seeking trustworthy sourcing without language barriers, uncertainty, or compromise. We aim to make the gem trade more accessible, more transparent, and more human.
​
Whether you're designing fine jewelry, building a collection, or simply discovering the world of gemstones, "Amanthi" is here to guide you, with expertise, heart, and integrity.
​
From the hidden mines of Sri Lanka to the jewelers' benches of Europe, let us be your bridge to something truly rare.
