Overview
About Dienge
We are purveyors of handcrafted silverware, fine art, gemstones and jewellery. We are known for our eclectic collection of hallmarked silverware frequently purchased by our clients as gifts for special occasions both corporate as well as personal.
Sri Lanka has a rich tradition of exquisite metal work including of silver and gold from over a thousand years ago. We deal with two master craftsman who are direct descendants of our last Sri Lankan kings' personal silversmith/jewellers. Our silver products are hand-crafted using repousse, embossing and filigree techniques by the best-known artisans in the industry.
We ensure the quality of the material used is high by hallmarking all products as sterling silver by the National Gem & Jewellery Authority of Sri Lanka. Within one year of inception, we were proud to be the recipient of the bronze award for the Assaying and Hallmarking category of Achiever Awards 2003 awarded by the National Gem and Jewellery Authority of Sri Lanka.
Today, our sterling silver products are in collections of Royalty, Presidents, Prime Ministers, Diplomats and Military Chiefs of many nations in Asia, Europe, Africa and the USA.
In 2016, our owner Dhammika Gunasekera discovered his hidden talent to draw art that harmonises colours and shapes, influenced by the writings and theories of Kandinsky and of the art movements of purism and cubism; although visually his art is very different from the artists and art movements which inspire him. Dhammika's drawings are mainly done on cotton watercolour paper with coloured pencils of archival, lightfast quality to ensure art of lasting quality.
