The best jewellery brands in Australia

Cushla Whiting

About the brand

It’s been ten years since Melbourne designer Cushla Whiting started her bespoke jewellery business alongside her siblings Hamish and Anna. With a shared love of design, architecture and gemology, the creative triad’s signature style combines clean line designs with exquisite diamonds and coloured gemstones. Each piece is sustainably crafted in their Melbourne workshop and is designed to tell your story for generations to come.

For a truly exquisite set of nine-carat gold ring, the signature Cog sapphire ring ($7500) gets our pick. Its art deco-style design balances simplicity and statement flair. The Contours hoops ($2200) bring a sculptural touch to your lobes. If we were to choose something equally timeless, but slightly more on the affordable side, it’s the Paperclip chain necklace in 18-carat gold ($1200).

Argent

About the brand

Argent jewellery is handcrafted in the foothills of the Victorian Alps by Elizabeth Hermann and her small team. For Elizabeth, it’s all about taking inspiration from the surrounding nature in Falls Creek – the curves of the valley and silhouettes of the forest.

Every piece is created for the wearer, bespoke and unique – and the Starry Night signet ring (a recent launch) is no exception. Choose from a matte or high-polish finish with diamonds or moissanites set into nine-carat gold, for a design that mimics its namesake: a lustrous night sky.

From sculptural earrings to heirloom-worthy custom commissions, each piece is crafted in small, family-run ateliers and reflects a sense of slow luxury. It’s jewellery that looks equally at home poolside in Positano or at a long lunch in the city.
