Tiesh unveils Sri Lanka’s largest Gems and Jewellery Emporium
Dazzling 27,000sq ft showroom under one roof
Tiesh, the leading jewellers both in Kandy and Colombo, recently unveiled its massive 27,000 sq ft showroom and now goes on record as having Sri Lanka’s largest ever Gems and Jewellery Emporium, all under one roof. Famously known as “Lakmini (Pvt) Ltd” since its launch in 1997, this showroom at No 676, Peradeniya Road, is now completely revamped and rebranded as ‘Tiesh’, and is a virtual haven for both walk-in customers, tourists and the eagle-eyed connoisseur.
Tiesh already holds the record for owning the largest showroom in Sri Lanka since the opening of the Gallery of Sapphires in 2016, a landmark achievement at the same premises.
This new venture expands its portfolio with the addition of over 14,000sq ft of plush showroom AND an additional 13,000sq ft of service areas featuring auditoriums and theatres. The current expansion includes the new state-of-the-art workshop and museum in addition to the existing laboratory, auditorium and the near-real replica of the gem mine.
“This resplendent outlet lays claim to Tiesh’s commitment towards enhancing the customer experience and feel of being part of something more than the mere purchase of a dazzling piece of jewellery. It is an immersive journey into a culture, spawned centuries ago, in a land which continues to appeal to the heart of gems and jewellery connoisseurs from around the world,” said its visionary Founder and Managing Director,
Lasantha de Fonseka, adding that customers will be enthralled by Sri Lanka’s gemmological story. “The success of Tiesh as Sri Lanka’s leading gems and jewellery provider, is also due to the dedication and passion of my family, staff, tour operators and loyal customers.”
Over the years Tiesh has burgeoned into a brand of great repute. The 27,000sq foot Emporium features an exquisite array of authentic gems and handcrafted pieces of jewellery set in both precious and semiprecious gem stones.
