Gemstones

Selecting quality gemstones is one of the most important steps in jewellery making, whether you’re setting a single aquamarine stone into a pendant or matching calibrated gem stones for a pair of earrings. Our range includes natural and laboratory options such as amethyst, sapphire, topaz, tourmaline, peridot, spinel, zircon, morganite, tanzanite, turquoise, alexandrite and cubic zirconia.

Each stone is selected to work seamlessly with standard bench practices, from claw and soft prong settings to bezel work in silver clay or traditional fabrication using solder, solder wire, and solder paste. Whether you’re building pieces with silver chain, forming settings from copper and wire, or assembling with jump rings, bails, and clasps, our gemstones integrate easily into both handmade and CAD-based workflows. Trusted by professionals sourcing through the Australian jewellery industry, this collection supports everything from custom rings to pendants and permanent bracelets.
