We first got a demonstration of the types of wood and how they color their items. The salesperson then went around the store with another person. We saw things that we have seen in small shops and stalls... with the same packaging at x8 price. If they are such a respectable store, they shouldn't be selling kitch at exorbitant prices. He wouldn't even admit that there were statues that clearly came from a mold and were real wood.

January 2023 - We bought a table from Oakray woodcarvings in January 2023. When we bought it, we were assured that there was transport insurance. The table was delivered in May 2023 and lo and behold, it was not in order. The table probably got wet during transport and then arrived moldy. Black mold that penetrated the wood. Countless complaints by email, Watts App, etc. to Oakray fizzled out in the offer to send a cleaning agent! The worst - no transport insurance.
We then had the already very expensive table inspected and reworked by a specialist at our expense of €1300 and now it has finally arrived at its destination in August 2023.
For this reason, I can only recommend that every tourist avoid the company, the shop. If you do, don't buy anything that doesn't fit in your suitcase - they can't deliver and are dubious. If you do, never pay the full purchase price in advance, then it's better to do without.
We have now found out that tables made of wood can also be bought in Germany - this is the better option, in Germany there are terms and conditions that must be adhered to.

Excellent products with good prices. The staff is excellent as well. Cannot leave Srilanka without buying a souvenir from there.

We visited Oakray Woodcarvings in Kandy, Sri Lanka (not in Sigiriya). The amount of furniture, large and small woodcarvings, etc was overwhelming. But we did love and buy a small coffee table which has elephants holding the round top which has lions and lotus flowers all natural colors. The price including shipping seemed reasonable to us. Nickson, the store manager, took time to explain the shipping process and that we would have to pick it up at the loading dock in Seattle. We were thrilled when it was delivered to our front door in Portland, OR in great condition! Thank you. We also purchased at the store one of the natural colored masks. The price was less than what I saw at other local stores .

Магазин будет интересен людям, которые любят оригинальные подарки. Тут много чего сделано из дерева. Но цены выше средних.

I really don't like strongly bad reviews but I don't want to allow other visitors to Sigiryia fall into this tourist trap. We have an overpriced lunch at the restaurant upstairs, (which to be fair was tasty Sri Lankan buffet and beautiful views). We then were herded down to the wood carving shop where we were followed around the store by salesmen trying to push everything from smal souvenirs to tables. Had intended buying a small elephant anyway so I bought it here, but have since seen multiple times for 40% of the price I bought it for.
Just as we were leaving they made one last ditch attempt at my wife to come and see some natural painting techniques. All in all very uncomfortable at the time, and since quite annoyed knowing what a curry and wood carved elephant should cost. I advise you to avoid.

It was a nice experience but the prices are very big even for Europe. Yes it is wood and it is handmade, but is just too much!

If you look at the work with a workman point of view then it is impressive and the efforts in a precise work is appreciable. We were shown how the natural colours were prepared.
But when I saw the prices of the items I was shocked...they are too expensive and felt they are hiked considering the tourist visiting the place.
We bought some mask in local store and those were 3/4 times cheaper to what the showroom sells here. To counter any misunderstanding I'm specifically talking about mask with normal colour and not natural colours.

We like wood carving so we wanted to try but Nalinda suggested another one in Matale. Extremely expensive items with very bad quality. Staff was extremely forcing for something to buy; that's crazy!. There's no real craftsmanship; just a touristic showroom. They need to be very simple and authentic if they want more sales.
