BOOK AFTERCARE

At CUSHLA WHITING, we believe fine jewellery should be both extraordinary and approachable. With our extensive archive of ethically sourced diamonds and rare gemstones, we champion the bespoke and the specialised, crafting modern heirlooms designed to be treasured for generations. Our considered, original designs are brought to life by master craftspeople in our Melbourne workshop, where exceptional hand-craftsmanship merges time-honoured techniques with modern technology to create beautiful, unique treasures that become a beloved part of our clients' everyday collections.

ENGAGEMENT CONSULTATION

Engagement consultations are your personal journey to discovering that perfect ring. We believe there is a particular gemstone and design destined for each individual. Our process is refreshingly unintimidating, designed for the modern couple who values both expertise and authenticity.

Beginning with an intimate exploration of our signature designs in our Melbourne showroom, you'll discover styles that naturally gravitate toward your aesthetic. We then browse through our carefully curated collection of exceptional stones: rare antique diamonds, custom ‘La Cush’ cut diamonds, vibrant Australian sapphires, each hand-selected by our GIA Gemologist Hamish Whiting for both beauty and character.

Hamish's carefully developed GRADE ABOVE™ strategy ensures our clients receive diamonds that represent both exceptional performance and outstanding value on a global scale.

Your bespoke piece is then lovingly crafted over eight weeks in our Melbourne workshop, with thoughtful updates throughout the creative process. Every piece joins our family with complimentary lifetime care and a comprehensive warranty.

OUR CRAFT AND PROCESS

Our bespoke process celebrates individuality, allowing you to create something uniquely yours. Whether reimagining one of our signature designs or crafting something entirely new, we work intimately with clients in our Melbourne and Sydney showrooms, through virtual appointments that feel personal, or entirely via email for our interstate and international clientele.

OUR CRAFT & PROCESS

BESPOKE: YOUR UNIQUE PIECE

At CUSHLA WHITING, we're passionate about cut quality above all because brilliance matters. Our GIA Gemologist Hamish personally selects every stone, using sophisticated ASET technology to ensure superior light performance that certificates alone cannot guarantee. Our collection features exceptional GIA-certified modern diamonds alongside rare antique stones hand-cut between 1600-1930, sourced directly from Antwerp's prestigious diamond bourse.

Our approach is refreshingly educational and transparent. We go beyond certificates to show you what makes a truly beautiful stone. Drawing on 20 years of diamond buying expertise, Hamish Whiting goes a GRADE ABOVE™ with his carefully developed strategy that ensures our clients receive diamonds representing both exceptional performance and outstanding value on a global scale.

Beyond diamonds lies an extraordinary collection of ethically sourced coloured gemstones. From the oceanic depths of Montana sapphires to the parti-coloured magic of Australian stones, from Ceylon's legendary cornflower blues to Nigeria's vibrant teals, every stone tells a story. Each is hand-selected from trusted artisanal mines that honour both craft and community.

Our signature designs blend architectural elegance with timeless tradition. Each piece is thoughtfully conceived to enhance the natural beauty of exceptional stones. From the clean lines of our solitaire settings to the geometric poetry of our three-stone designs, every unique creation balances contemporary sophistication with enduring appeal.

Whether choosing from our carefully curated collection or embarking on a fully bespoke journey, each design is meticulously crafted to celebrate the individual character of your chosen stone. This ensures your piece feels both distinctly modern and destined to become a future heirloom.

Select from our palette of precious sustainable metals: lustrous 18-karat yellow, rose, or white gold, or platinum for ultimate durability. Our handmade pieces begin with melted metal and traditional rolling techniques, while our CAD designs merge cutting-edge technology with artisanal finishing.

Your band becomes an extension of your personal style. Choose from softly rounded profiles for daily comfort or striking angular silhouettes for contemporary edge. Add meaningful engraving to make it truly yours, while our diamond settings wrap gracefully around the band, leaving space for comfortable wear without compromising sparkle.

BRIDAL

We specialise in creating custom wedding bands that perfectly complement your engagement ring. All customised to you, we can create custom curved or open wedding bands specifically designed to fit around your engagement ring, or craft straight bands that sit flush. Our custom process allows you to choose your preferred metal, width, finish, and whether to incorporate diamonds or coloured gemstones.

For men we offer a curated range of wedding bands to try on in various styles, finishes, widths and metals. All of our wedding bands are made in Melbourne using ethically sourced diamonds, Australian gold or platinum. The production time for our wedding bands is four to six weeks.
