Nineteen48 Limited Information

At Nineteen48, we offer fully-traceable, ethically-sourced gemstones, which come either from our own mines in Sri Lanka or those of our exclusive network of approved partners. That means, when you buy your gems from us, you have the peace of mind that your jewellery will be made with a stone that is guaranteed "conflict free" and conforms to the principles of full disclosure and fair trade. You can obtain high-quality, Sri Lankan sapphire and ruby, as well as a wide range of other gemstones including alexandrite, aquamarine, garnet, spinel, tourmaline, citrine, amethyst, peridot, moonstone and topaz. Whether you are a private or retail customer, either in the UK and overseas, we can supply you with everything from individual gemstones for small-scale designer/makers to large quantities of gems for wholesale or retail. Working with carefully selected suppliers in Sri Lanka and the UK, we provide you with a professional and competitively-priced service. However, we are not simply another gemstone dealer. Nineteen48 is a commercial venture with a social focus. As one of our customers, you help us make a real difference to the lives of others, because we commit to supporting charitable projects in Sri Lanka, focusing particularly on projects related to children and education. We believe that by investing in the younger generation, we make a real difference to the future of Sri Lanka. Our business benefits charitable and social projects through direct donations from our company's profits and also contributes to overall economic growth in Sri Lanka through our trading activities with local businesses and communities. We make a real difference to the people with whom we work, whilst at the same time bringing the exquisite beauty of Sri Lankan gemstones to an international audience. So if you are looking for beautiful gemstones from a company with a conscience then we would love to hear from you...
