Discover one of Sri Lanka’s most treasured artisanal traditions during this immersive, hands-on jewelry making workshop in Galle. This private experience connects you with a master craftsman who will guide you through every stage of creating your own custom silver jewelry piece—from raw material to polished masterpiece.
Begin by learning the essential difference between genuine and imitation gemstones, a valuable skill in the world of Sri Lankan jewelry. You’ll then observe the dramatic process of melting raw silver in a traditional furnace before stepping into the workshop yourself.
Using authentic tools passed through generations, you’ll shape, measure, and hammer the silver to form your desired design. Your artisan guide will help you master the intricate steps of soldering, smoothing rough edges, and refining the final shape.
Once your piece takes form, you’ll polish it to perfection, leaving the workshop with a high-quality ring, pendant, or earrings handcrafted entirely by you. This unique experience offers not only a creative challenge but also a memorable cultural connection to Sri Lanka’s heritage of fine craftsmanship.
