Top Rated Artisan: The gallery’s most trusted masters. How seller levels work
Biography
Gold, bead by hand-rolled bead.
Nilanthi apprenticed under her grandfather, one of the last goldsmiths to make siro bo maleya the traditional way. Today she leads a studio of six, producing gold and gem-set jewellery that is valued, hallmarked and presented with full documentation.
The Craft Story
Each gold bead is rolled and soldered by hand. A single necklace holds several hundred beads and takes about six weeks to complete.

Exquisite clasp pin
Rubies and emeralds set beautifully, and the gold-washed shaft is finely chased. I wear it constantly.

Lovely, slight delay
The craftsmanship is superb. It shipped a few days later than first quoted, though Nilanthi told me promptly.
