The Central highlands Gemfields, Australia

​​The Central Highlands Gemfields is one of the largest sapphire deposits in the world, attracting tourist and miners throughout the year.  The area covers a district of 900 square kilometres in the state of Queensland, including towns such as Rubyvale, Anakie, Sapphire and Willows. 

The Gemfields is a fascinating place surrounded by beautiful nature and a great diversity of natural gemstones. Australian sapphires are an ethical option, as they are mined responsibly and in a sustainable manner, with minimal impact on the environment.
​
​Sapphires have a unique history and culture, being part of the Australian gem industry that dates back to the 19th century when sapphires were first discovered. Formed in the earth's crust over 50 million years ago, it's no wonder we are captivated by their rarity and beauty!

​From inspiration to creation
Creating a custom piece begins with a single spark of inspiration and often, with a loose sapphire that carries the raw beauty of the earth. When you choose one of our hand‑cut Australian sapphires as the centrepiece of your design, you’re choosing a gemstone with true character, traceable origin and a story that begins right here in Rubyvale. When you're ready to begin, we're here to bring your vision to life with the finest Australian sapphires and true local artisanal craftmanship. 

1. Consultation - Choose your gemstone
​Your journey begins with selecting your natural sapphire or gemstone. We’ll explore colours, shapes, cuts and the personality of each stone. You can also choose your preferred metal — yellow, rose, white gold, or platinum.


2. Design - Your vision
Whether you imagine a timeless solitaire, a delicate pendant, a bold statement ring, or elegant earrings, your vision becomes the foundation of the design.
You’re welcome to refine the CAD as much as you need. Small adjustments and proportion tweaks are included and only a full redesign would incur an additional cost.
Once you approve the final design, I’ll prepare your exact quote.
​

3. Quote & Approval 
Once your design is finalised, you’ll receive a clear, accurate quote before anything moves forward. There is no commitment until you approve the design and accept the quote. 
​
4. Deposit & Production 
To begin crafting your piece, we simply take the deposit for your chosen gemstones. Production takes approximately two weeks, with your jewellery made by our skilled local artisans using modern technology and traditional craftmanship. 

5. Completion & Delivery 

Once your piece is finished, the remaining balance is paid and we cover the postage. Your jewellery is then shipped to your door, typically within 14 days.
The result is a one‑of‑a‑kind piece you’ll cherish for a lifetime, designed and chosen only by you. 

Wearing a custom piece is a joy unlike any other. It’s a creation made just for you, crafted with intention, precision and artistry.

If you’re ready to begin your custom journey, we’re here to guide you every step of the way. We can also source any specific diamonds to suit your design or other natural gemstones. Every detail matters and we take pride in ensuring your piece is perfect.
