Work with a qualified gemmologist to find a stone that is exceptional in every way — ethically sourced, expertly selected, and perfectly matched to your vision.
Finding the perfect diamond or coloured gemstone is at the heart of every bespoke piece we create. With deep industry connections and a gemmologist's trained eye, Sara sources exceptional stones — including GIA-certified and lab-grown diamonds, Ceylon sapphires, Australian teal sapphires, rubies, emeralds, Paraíba tourmalines, and more.
Whether you're seeking a centrepiece for an engagement ring or a meaningful addition to your collection, Sara will guide you to a stone that perfectly reflects your style, story, and budget — with honest, expert advice at every step. You'll never be oversold, and you'll always understand exactly what you're choosing and why.

We source GIA-certified natural diamonds for all significant commissions. Sara guides you through the Four Cs — cut, colour, clarity, and carat — in plain language, so you understand exactly where to prioritise and where to save. Every diamond is assessed in person for the qualities a certificate can't always capture: life, fire, and scintillation.
From a classic round brilliant to a sophisticated cushion, pear, or emerald cut, we find the stone that makes your heart stop — then build a setting worthy of it.
Source Your Diamond
Chemically and optically identical to mined diamonds, lab-grown stones offer exceptional sparkle at a significantly lower price — and with a reduced environmental footprint. Sara will walk you through the real differences between natural and lab-grown options, honestly and without pressure, so you can choose with genuine confidence.
Lab-grown diamonds are graded to the same GIA standards as natural stones and are an increasingly popular choice for engagement rings and bespoke statement pieces.

Sapphires, rubies, emeralds, Paraíba tourmalines, spinels, tanzanites — coloured gemstones are deeply personal, visually extraordinary, and often more meaningful than a traditional diamond. Sara sources rare and exceptional coloured stones through specialist networks that simply aren't accessible to mainstream retailers.
We are the South Coast's leading coloured gemstone specialists, with a comprehensive guide to every stone we work with — including character, durability, origin, and what to look for when choosing.
Explore Coloured Stones
Australia produces some of the world's most distinctive and collectable gemstones — bold teal and parti sapphires from Queensland and New South Wales, fiery Lightning Ridge black opals, pristine South Sea pearls, and the legendary Argyle pink diamonds. These are proudly local choices that carry a unique character and provenance.
Sara has direct knowledge of and access to Australian gemstone suppliers, and takes particular pride in recommending homegrown stones for bespoke pieces with a genuine Australian story.
Discover Australian Gems
Have a beloved stone from a family heirloom or unworn jewellery? We specialise in upcycling existing gemstones — including diamonds, sapphires, and other precious stones — into new bespoke designs that honour the story behind the piece while creating something entirely fresh.
Sara will assess your stone during your consultation, advise on its quality and the best way to incorporate it, and guide you through a redesign that transforms inherited sentiment into something you'll treasure every day.

Book Your Complimentary ConsultationSara takes on a limited number of new commissions each month.
We begin with a relaxed, obligation-free conversation — in the Kiama studio or via video call — to understand your vision, your budget, and what the piece means to you.
Sara will ask the right questions to define your brief: stone type, colour, size, origin preferences, and any ethical or sentimental requirements. Nothing is assumed.
Drawing on her network of specialist suppliers in Australia and internationally, Sara curates a shortlist of stones matched to your brief — assessing each for quality, character, and value in person.
You view the shortlisted stones — in person or via high-quality video — with Sara's honest assessment of each. You choose with complete confidence, never under pressure.
Once your stone is selected, Sara designs and handcrafts your bespoke piece around it — with 3D design previews before any metalwork begins.
A qualified gemmologist, specialist networks, and genuinely honest advice — this is what expert gemstone sourcing should feel like.
Sara holds formal gemmological qualifications and assesses every stone herself. You're not buying from a catalogue — you're working with someone who genuinely understands what makes a gemstone exceptional, and what to avoid.
01Sara sources through specialist networks that aren't accessible to mainstream retailers — including Australian teal sapphires, unheated Burmese rubies, Paraíba tourmalines, and fine spinels. The extraordinary is within reach.
02All gemstones are sourced from reputable, conflict-free suppliers. Sara is always upfront about provenance, pricing, and the honest trade-offs between options — so your choice is informed, not just beautiful.

Beyond diamonds, Sara has a deep passion for the full spectrum of precious and semi-precious gemstones — and brings gemmological expertise to every recommendation. Whether you're drawn to the vivid cornflower blue of a Ceylon sapphire, the electric green of a Paraíba tourmaline, or the personal significance of a birthstone, Sara can source the right stone and design a piece that celebrates its beauty.
Birthstones add a deeply personal dimension to jewellery — connecting a piece to a birth month, anniversary, or life milestone. We source high-quality birthstones for every month, in a range of budgets and scales, and can incorporate them into rings, pendants, earrings, and more.

"We went in unsure about lab-grown vs natural and came out with total clarity. Sara presented both options without any pressure — it was exactly what we needed."
