Highly skilled, Australian master-jewellers have designed and crafted some of the world's finest pieces of modern jewellery – jewellery that is proudly worn by royalty, major movies stars and leading sporting personalities across the globe.
Commencing more than two hundred years ago, the Australian jewellery industry was heavily influenced by British goldsmiths, silversmiths and traditions that dated back to antiquity.
However, in the twentieth century, with the advent of a multicultural Australia, jewellery design became more cosmopolitan in nature. Today, many Australian jewellers are master-craftsmen trained by other master-craftsmen from all of the world’s major jewellery centres.
In recent decades, pieces inspired by Australian themes and motifs have left their mark on the world stage, and Australian jewellers have won every major international jewellery award – including the prestigious Diamond International Award.
