The Materials Behind Our Collection
Our Australian-made fine jewellery is crafted using 18K gold or platinum, paired with diamonds and coloured gemstones. Carefully selected materials and considered design come together in pieces intended to be worn, gifted and enjoyed for years to come.
18K Gold and Platinum
18K white, yellow and rose gold form the foundation of many designs within the collection, alongside platinum. White gold is admired for its luminosity, yellow gold for its rich warmth, and rose gold for its softer hue. Platinum remains a popular choice for its naturally white colour and refined appearance.
Diamond Jewellery
Diamonds are used throughout the collection, bringing brilliance and refinement to rings, earrings, necklaces and bracelets. Featured throughout our range of jewellery made in Australia, they remain a defining element of many of our most sought-after designs.
Precious Gemstones
Rubies, sapphires and aquamarines introduce colour and individuality to a jewellery collection. Deep red rubies, vibrant sapphires and the soft blue tones of aquamarines each offer a distinct character, allowing each piece to express a different aesthetic and occasion.
Jewellery Care and Maintenance
Store jewellery separately in a soft-lined box or pouch to prevent scratches and wear. Remove pieces before activities that may place pressure on the setting or expose the metal and gemstones to harsh chemicals. We recommend bringing your pieces to our Melbourne CBD workshop for professional care. Our team can inspect settings and clasps while helping maintain the beauty of your jewellery.
Choosing Australian-made Jewellery With Meaning
Jewellery made in Australia is chosen for occasions both large and small, from weddings and anniversaries to birthdays and personal milestones. When selecting a piece, consider how it reflects the wearer's personal style, the occasions for which it may be worn, and how it will complement an existing jewellery collection.
A carefully chosen piece should feel at home alongside pieces already worn and loved. Paying attention to metal colour, gemstone preferences and overall design creates a cohesive collection. This is particularly important as new additions are introduced to mark important moments, such as bridal rings and bridal bracelets, as well as anniversary or milestone gifts.
While browsing Australian-made jewellery online can be a valuable starting point, viewing pieces in person offers a different perspective. We welcome you to visit our Melbourne CBD showroom, where our team can provide personalised guidance, help you compare designs and materials, and explore ways to make a piece uniquely yours.
Jewellery Sizing Guide
The fit influences both comfort and wearability, particularly for rings and bracelets. For those purchasing a ring, our online size guide can provide a useful reference. To ensure the best possible fit, we recommend visiting our Melbourne CBD showroom for professional sizing assistance.
Making Australian Made Jewellery Your Own
When purchasing jewellery as a gift or to mark a special occasion, personalisation adds a deeper meaning to the piece. Our consultants help refine your ideas to create Australian-made fine jewellery that reflects the wearer and the occasion.
- Engravings - Commemorate an anniversary, milestone or personal memory with meaningful words, dates or initials. Personal engravings can add sentimental value to bridal jewellery and milestone pieces.
- Gemstone Selection - Choose a favourite gemstone, birthstone or colour that reflects the wearer’s personality and style. Your choice adds a personal touch to pieces selected for important occasions, such as bridal earrings.
- Bespoke Design - Work with our team to create a piece that reflects your vision, with local artisans helping refine the design, materials and finish.
Our skilled artisans bring these ideas to life in our Melbourne CBD workshop. At Garen Jewellery, we take the time to understand the story behind the piece, combining thoughtful design with skilled craftsmanship. Visit our showroom to begin the conversation and discover what is possible.
