Sourcing Diamonds & Coloured Gemstones
Sourcing a specific gem can be a challenging for those outside of the industry. The intricate gemstone market has many factors to consider when purchasing a stone. We are here to help, we’ll find your gem in the perfect colour, size and shape you are looking for.
All of our creations with larger diamonds use GIA certified diamds. A diamond with GIA certification commands a higher price in the market, protecting owners with a laser inscription and serial number.
Our team has longstanding relationships with leading gemstone dealers, in Australia and across the globe. These industry connections help Sara Handmade Jewellery source diamonds and coloured gemstones of exceptional quality for your bespoke jewellery.
Responsibly Sourced Gemstones
We use responsibly sourced gemstones for your peace of mind as well as our own. It is our duty to support the environment as well as the industry that supports us.
Ethical gemstones ensure workers in the industry are treated fairly and receive decent wages. Gemstones mined ethically are often of better quality than those mined by traditional methods. The mining is less invasive, more controlled and only the best stones are taken.
We also upcycle gemstones from old rings, earrings and necklaces. Using a client’s old or damaged jewellery, we help them create a new custom piece.
