Diamond Jewellery Sydney

It’s no secret that locally in Australia we have been rocked by the recent events of Covid 19. It has effected not only the economy but also our freedoms. While our needs haven’t changed we find adapting is the only way forward. We still want to celebrate together to share the moments that are the most special. Getting married and celebrating engagements is one of the biggest celebrations for young couples and their families. Luckily there are still so many options throughout the country for young buyers even from the comfort of your own home.

Prior to this event we would check out social media to get inspiration and either visit our Jeweller or jump online to browse designs and Diamonds. With may retailers having to lock down due to the pandemic online has never been more convenient. Shopping for the perfect Engagement Ring or Wedding Ring is made easy and shopping locally has never been more important…both to ensure over seas shipping restrictions don’t delay or hinder your purchase but also to support local business.

If you’re searching for Diamond Jewellery Sydney, Melbourne or even in Brisbane there are some great retailers that have both the showroom and the online store making it easy to search for the perfect ring or Jewellery. Many even specialize in custom designs so chatting to Jewellers on the phone, via email or even on their websites to discuss a unique design… especially during these times of uncertainty is so important. Even selecting a Diamond can be made easy with may Jewellers able to send certificates and videos of the Diamond prior to purchase.

The other great reason to buy local especially recently is due to the fluctuating US dollar and the price of Gold. Buying from over seas Jewellers can add up significantly when you take into account the exchange rate and customs charges. Even Gold prices have seemed to sky rocket with recent rates hitting as high as $2700 an ounce.

With all the uncertainty at the moment and the price fluctuations many buyers have been turning to Diamond alternatives and Lab Grown Diamonds are on the rise. In fact in recent years as much as 22% of all purchases for Engagement Rings have been for Lab Grown Diamond Engagement Rings.

These fantastic alternatives are not only up to 60% cheaper than mined Diamonds but are also virtually the same, sitting on a 10 on the Moh’s scale of hardness. This is the same position as natural Diamonds and due to fact that they are essentially formed the same way they are chemically identical albeit just sped up by a billion years.

Lab Created Diamonds are both ethically sourced and have a far better impact on the environment and are now considered to be icing on the cake for many who are turning away from naturally mined diamonds for the same reason.

There are so many options and so many local Jewellers… searching for the perfect Engagement Ring or Diamond Jewellery should be a fun and exciting time even during all the uncertainty.
