The holding company Rainbow Gems was established in 1980 as a family owned partnership company based in Colombo. The founder of Rainbow Gems, late "Volly Dangedara” founded the company in 1980, after his retirement as the chairman of the National Textile Cooperation, by using his savings. He purchased loose cut and polished sapphires directly from Ratnapura miners to cater for the local market. The company is now dealing in fine to extra fine rare gems for international wholesale dealers, jewelry manufactures, branded jewelers and one of a kind masterpieces for investment buyers.
