How We Bring Your Bespoke Jewellery Vision to Life

At Sara Handmade Jewellery, creating your one-of-a-kind piece is more than just a process—it’s a journey tailored to you. Specialising in bespoke jewellery on the NSW South Coast, we work closely with you every step of the way to craft jewellery that’s as unique as you are.

A custom-make ensures the perfect fit for you.

Initial Consultation: Explore Your Ideas

Our design journey starts with a friendly, obligation-free consultation in our Kiama studio. Share your inspirations and personal style, whether you have Pinterest dreams, heirloom gems to remodel, or simply an idea in your mind. We’ll guide you through design options, gemstone selection, and answer any questions to ensure we’re capturing your vision.

Looking for a sparkling engagement ring or a truly personal custom-made jewellery piece? We’re happy to talk through options, from diamonds to coloured stones, and recommend what will best suit your lifestyle and budget.

The Design Process: Creating Custom Jewellery

After our initial chat, we sketch out your ideas and source the finest gemstones for your selection. As Kiama’s local bespoke jeweller, we love sourcing unique coloured stones, classic diamonds, and ethical materials—perfect for those looking for something a little different or a sentimental piece to pass down through generations.

Once you’re happy, we’ll finalise the design details for your custom creation. For those seeking to update existing pieces, our jewellery remodelling service is a wonderful way to breathe new life into old favourites.

Expert Craftsmanship: Bringing Your Piece to Life

Your bespoke jewellery is handcrafted with care in our Kiama workshop. Our focus is on meticulous craftsmanship, from the first cut to the final polish, ensuring your piece meets the highest standards.

Final touches may include gemstone setting, detailed engraving, and a sparkling polish—ready to become part of your story. We give every piece a final inspection to ensure it meets our quality promise before it finds its new home with you.
