Shopping

Shopping in Sri Lanka, means international designer labels are not the only items on that ever increasing shopping list. Passion, quality and imaginative design, combined with more than a dash of marketing savvy, are the hallmarks of locally manufactured merchandise, must haves on the gift list as you leave the paradise isle.

The best of fabrics, clothing, homewares, wood carvings and brasswork are made by artisans in their own homes or craft centres, and are not mass produced for export and are one of a kind. The exquisite handicrafts of Sri Lanka, batik works, lace creations and the stunning jewellery in both modern and traditional designs provide yet another reason to visit the enchanted isle.
