Sri Lanka Consul General in Shanghai Anura Fernando with Shanghai Jade and Gem Exchange Chairman Simon Chan

A Sri Lankan Gem and Jewellery Exhibition was held at The St. Regis Hotel in Shanghai between 22 and 23 March with the participation of Zam Gems, Sri Lanka under the patronage of Sri Lanka Consul General in Shanghai Anura Fernando.

At the exhibition, Sri Lankan gems including Blue Sapphires, Pink Sapphires (Rubies), Alexandrite, and Cat’s-eye Chrysoberyl were displayed. In addition, a variety of jewellery including necklaces, rings, earrings, bracelets which were crafted using above mentioned Sri Lankan gems and stones were also exhibited.

Shanghai Jade and Gem Exchange Chairman Simon Chan participated in the event with his team of officials and reputed Chinese buyers. In addition, many other buyers across China, gem and jewellery traders, gem collectors, members of Shanghai Diplomatic Corp and expatriates as well as other interested parties including onlookers were present at the event. Further, the Consulate has used this opportunity to promote Sri Lanka tourism by displaying and distributing Sri Lanka tourism brochures among prospective gem buyers, members of Diplomatic Corp and visitors while positively responding to the tourism-related questions submitted to the Consul General and the staff during the event.

This event, which was the first gem and jewellery exhibition held in Shanghai in the aftermath of the opening up of Chinese borders (ending its months long COVID-19 restrictions) was organised through the personal funds of the Consul General and proved to be a huge success.
