Before you buy
How do you authenticate your pieces?
We carefully assess every piece using our gemmological training, specialist tools, and industry experience. We are both GIA Graduate Gemmologists and have also completed the Applied Jewelry Professional (AJP) qualification.
We work closely with our jeweller, who has almost 50 years of experience and is also a qualified gemmologist.
Carat weights are estimates based on measurements taken in the setting unless otherwise stated. Precise weights can only be obtained from loose stones. Many of our diamonds are old cuts, which are often asymmetrical and not calibrated due to traditional hand-cutting techniques.
We aim to provide clear photos and videos from multiple angles to help you purchase with confidence.
Do US customers have to pay tariffs or duties?
No - for United States customers, the price shown includes insured DHL Express or Australia Post shipping and import duties/tariffs.
This means there should be no separate bill for these charges on delivery. We always ship at full declared value so your parcel stays compliant, secure, and fully insured.
Do you offer layaway or payment plans?
Layaway may be available by approval on selected pieces, we’re always happy to discuss. Please get in touch to enquire via our Contact Us form or via Instagram.
PayPal Pay in 4 is also available at checkout (subject to eligibility), which allows you to pay in instalments to PayPal while we send your piece out right away.
Do you offer ring resizing?
Yes! We’re happy to help you get the perfect fit. Please contact us to discuss ring sizing options, we're happy to provide no obligation quotes for resizing.
Our jeweller takes great care to keep the finish seamless and preserve original details and hallmarks where possible.
You can read more about ring resizing and common myths in our blog post.
