Rings of Australia

Rings of Australia, natural and lab-grown diamond jewellery

Rings of Australia is an online jewellery retailer that designs and sells engagement rings, wedding bands and fine jewellery pieces with natural diamonds and lab-grown diamonds. The company presents itself as a lab-grown diamond specialist and operates from its Brisbane office in Queensland, where it serves customers by appointment. Its catalogue is aimed at those looking for engagement rings, wedding bands and diamond jewellery, and it offers shipping to Australia and New Zealand.

Engagement rings and wedding bands

The engagement ring catalogue is organised by style — solitaire, halo, bezel, hidden halo, pavé, side stone, three stone, nature inspired, vintage, toi et moi and unique designs — and by metal, with options in 9K, 14K and 18K white, yellow and rose gold, as well as platinum. Diamonds can be chosen by shape: round, oval, pear, princess, asscher, heart, emerald, radiant, cushion and marquise.

The company allows you to start the design from a natural diamond, a lab-grown diamond, a coloured lab-grown diamond or a setting, and also accepts custom order requests. For wedding bands, the site shows a selection of models with prices in Australian dollars, including Peony Curved, Paris Curved, Lotus S, Nora, Seville Prong Set, Vienna Prong Set, Fleur Fancy Shape Baguette, Clover Prong Set, Iris, Dahlia Prong Set, Azalea Channel Set, Sienna, Chloe Twisted, Ella, Lily, Monaco Curved, Sydney Curved, Florence S, Bloom Prong Set, Poppy Gold, Bluebell Bar Set, Petal Curved, Daffodil Curved, Anemone Gold, Freesia Fancy Shape Baguette, Hibiscus Curved, Amaryllis Curved, Primrose Fancy Shape Baguette, Magnolia Gold and Orchid Channel Set.

Custom design and buying process

The company offers free custom CAD design, with guidance throughout the process. Customers can reserve their ring with a partial deposit: pay 50% at the time of order and the remaining 50% when the piece is ready to ship, or agree on a different deposit amount. It also offers instalment payments through Afterpay and interest-free monthly payment plans. Custom rings typically take 30 to 35 days from the order date.

The site states that every diamond ring includes a recognised grading certificate, such as GIA or IGI. The company also sells an appraisal service for 120 Australian dollars, intended to allow customers to insure the piece on their own, and offers easy 30-day returns.

Natural and lab-grown diamonds

Rings of Australia explains that lab-grown diamonds are chemically and visually identical to mined diamonds, and that both are graded using the same 4Cs standards. According to its presentation, lab-grown diamonds are more affordable and eco-friendly, while natural diamonds are valued for their rarity and tradition. The company states that its prices can be up to 70% lower and that it applies promotional discounts, such as 30% off lab-grown diamonds and a flat 10% off wedding bands, subject to terms and conditions.

In-person and virtual service

The company serves customers by appointment at its Murarrie, Brisbane office, where it showcases its best-selling ring designs so customers can experience the style and craftsmanship up close before confirming their order. It also offers virtual appointments to view designs from home. In addition, it has other brands within the group with a presence in the United Kingdom, United States and Germany, and states that it serves couples in Australia, the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany.
