The company has reached the top of the giftware business with a collection of innovative and well chosen giftware items. "We pick the very best, because we understand what a customer wants in a gift. We also are aware that a gift represents the giver's thoughtful gesture as an act of love, affection and appreciation," says Ms. Nilrukshi de Silva, head of Business Development for House of Gifts.

The company recently proudly launched its exquisite range of sparkling Solitaire Crystal Ware at the Crystal Room of Taj Samudra Hotel in Colombo. Hand crafted with precision and care to bring out the pristine beauty of crystal, Solitaire Crystal meets and exceeds global standards in aesthetic form and design.

"Solitaire crystal ware is the ultimate gift," says Ms. Nilrukshi de Silva. "It is truly a collector's dream."

The Solitaire launch was a celebration and a triumph, graced by the presence of the Chairman of Macksons Holdings and his family, our loyal employees, customers and well wishers. Entertainment was provided by a graceful display of dance by the Kulasiri Budhawatha dancers and drummers, followed by cocktails.

House of Gifts had a well appreciated stock of thoughtful and specially selected giftware during the recent Christmas season, which has been a great success for the company.
