Sri Lanka is the most important source of blue sapphires on earth. The Ratnapura and Elahera regions produce stones found in royal crowns and record auction lots. FACETS is the only international exhibition held at the source.
Every exhibitor at FACETS is a current member of the SLGJA or NGJA. You are buying from the origin, with statutory industry oversight at every booth.
FACETS exhibitors operate under Sri Lankan export regulations, with full export documentation and independent gem certification available for every purchase.
Since 1991, FACETS has connected global buyers with Sri Lankan suppliers — a continuous, trusted bridge between the source and the world.
