Creating bespoke jewellery is one of the most special and captivating parts of being a jewellery designer. Jewellery is powerful, it has the ability to uplift and inspire, and most of all, bring joy. You are one-of-a-kind with your own unique style and your jewellery can be made to match. Let’s work together to create a beautiful piece that reflects you and your personality (and adds a touch or extra sparkle!)

Custom jewellery design requires connection and collaboration and I make sure to provide thoughtful creativity and guidance throughout the entire process. Each piece is impeccably designed and handcrafted by myself, in my Brisbane workshop.

Contact me for more information or to book an appointment - I look forward to creating something beautiful with you!

custom design FAQ’s

  • My custom design process starts with an complementary consultation, either in person or online. Once we have discussed the brief I will then provide sketches and a range of diamonds and/or gemstones to view. Throughout the process I’ll guide and collaborate, creating an enjoyable, friendly experience.

    If you already have a design in mind feel free to provide any images or inspiration.

    A 50% deposit is required to begin crafting, with the remainder to be paid after completion, before pick up or shipping.

    After the ring is made I offer an optional independent valuation service (not included in the price.)

    Disclaimer - as with all handmade products, even if it’s the same design each ring will have slight differences. This, to me, is the beauty of handmade art and what makes it unique!

  • During our initial consultation we will discuss the type, style, colours and feel of the piece you would like to create.

    If you have any inspiration images feel free to bring them along, a visual is always a great place to start.

    If you are starting with a blank canvas, never fear! I will provide design guidance and creativity to get us going.

    If you are planning a surprise (I love surprises) I will help guide the process by asking the right questions and providing creativity -as well as knowledge of current trends.

    Budget is an important part of the brief, as it gives me perimeters and you piece of mind that the design will be appropriate to the price.

  • All diamonds are ethical, certified and available in different specifications. In your consultation I’ll provide a range of diamonds to view along with a friendly, informative diamond education. Contact me to chat about the perfect centre stone for your style and budget.

  • I work with suppliers all around the world to source the best quality, and most interesting coloured gemstones. During your consultation I’ll give you an informative coloured gemstone education and help guide you to the perfect gemstone choice.

    Once we have discussed the brief I will organise a range of coloured gemstones to view. This is such a fun part of the process, and always a highlight!

    Keep in mind that certain gemstones are more suitable for different types of rings, for example a sapphire is durable enough for an engagement/everyday ring, while Emeralds, for example, would be better suited to a cocktail ring.

  • All designs on my website can be handmade to order, or used for inspiration to make your dream piece.

    I believe that jewellery should be unique to the wearer and love adding in personalised details.

    If you have a design in mind, or an image of what you would like feel free to send it through to me - it’s a great place to start!

  • I design pieces in platinum, 9K gold and 18K gold.

    I source diamonds and gemstones from some incredible suppliers from all over the world.

    Depending on the gemstone, I may be able to work with your supplied materials. I do not work with diamonds or gemstones that have been sourced elsewhere as I cannot guarantee their quality or provenance.

    All care but no responsibility is taken when working with customer supplied gemstones, as I cannot guarantee their quality. All risks and benefits will be discussed during the initial consultation.

  • Budget is an important part of the brief, as it gives me perimeters and you piece of mind that the design will be appropriate to the price.

    The price of each piece depends largely on the materials involved, and how complex it is to make.

    As a general rule, 18K is more expensive than 9K, with platinum in between. Colourless diamonds are the most expensive of the gemstones, followed by champagne diamonds, precious gemstones and then semi-precious gemstones.

    (Disclaimer - there are definite exceptions to this rule which we can discuss during the consultation)

    Every design can be customized to suit your budget, and I will help guide you to the best choice for you.

    My pieces are all lovingly handmade and designed, are both fair and reflect this.

  • The standard lead time for each piece is 6 weeks from the date of approval. If you have a specific date in mind, let me know and I’ll do my best!

    Shipping is available worldwide and is not included in the price. Delivery times are subject to each country and may not fall within the 6 week alotted timeframe.

  • My designs are available worldwide! I can consult either in person and online, whichever is easiest fro you.

    I am based in Brisbane Australia, but I’ve also created pieces in Paris, New York and New Zealand to date.

illustration

To celebrate each piece I will provide you with a complementary, hand painted illustration, complete with it’s own frame. The illustration captures the essence of the design from the very beginning and is a beautiful keepsake to have in years to come. I believe every single piece is special and deserves to be celebrated in it’s uniqueness!

Contact me to learn more about my bespoke illustration services.

Creative design

Whether it be an engagement ring, dress ring, necklace or earrings - you can be confident in knowing that your design will be creative, personal and made wth exquisite craftsmanship.

I pride myself on being adaptive, and able to design in a multitude of styles. Jewellery is so personal to the wearer and I make sure that each person is completely happy with their design before going ahead. Collaboration and communication are key, and I aim to listen, guide and offer creative expertise at every stage.

Working with people to create special pieces is one of the absolute highlights of being a jeweller, and being there from start to finish, design to handover, is truly special!
