This month, we’ve fallen hard (read: obsessively scrolling, screenshotting, and stacking) for these six jewellery brands turning subtle statements into serious style. From Bondi-born brilliance to sleek Scandi icons, here are the labels wrapping us around their (beautifully adorned) fingers. And, wrists and necks! No actual engagement required.
1. Saint Valentine
Founded at the bustling Bondi Markets and now a polished staple on the global scene, Saint Valentine has that elusive mix of elegance and effortlessness. Think of them as the Audrey Hepburn of your jewellery box – minimalist, refined, and always appropriate. Designed by fashion-industry alum Georgia Wyrill, these are pieces that quietly elevate any outfit – whether you’re heading to brunch or the boardroom.
Saint Valentine’s collections (there are six to eight released annually – including the latest Oslo and Crescendo ranges) draw inspiration from art, travel and vintage gems. Yet, every piece feels grounded in the now. With a focus on long-lasting design and sentimentality, they’re not chasing trends – they’re setting the tone for modern classics. Even better? Many items are handcrafted in their Sydney studio. And, the brand is committed to sustainability, from metal recycling to beautiful, reusable packaging.
If you’re into jewellery that feels personal, poised, and perfectly put-together – this one’s your forever flame.
2. Kemi Designs
Calling all cool girls who don’t like to blend in: Kemi Designs is your new go-to. Created by a NYC-born, Sydney-based jeweller, this label nails the art of everyday statement. Think mainstream silhouettes with that “Where did you get that?” twist.
Each piece is designed to reflect the wearer’s individuality, embracing quirk, confidence, and the quiet power of self-expression. Whether you’re stacking, layering or wearing a single standout stunner, Kemi Designs brings a little something extra to your daily ‘fit. There’s a bold softness to these pieces—modern, memorable, and just a bit unexpected.
If you want your jewellery to speak louder than your group chat’s memes, Kemi is here to deliver the drama. Minus the effort.
3. Daniel Wellington
Minimalism, but make it majestic. Daniel Wellington, the masters of sleek Scandinavian cool, are back, with a new AW25 jewellery and watch collection landing August 15. And, it’s seriously swoon-worthy. From their oval-faced Juliette watch with a braided mesh strap to the bold contrast dial of the Iconic 42 Chronograph, this drop blends clean lines with a splash of bold energy.
DW’s new campaign, Moments That Matter, is also taking things offline with a four-day cafe takeover at Blackwood Bondi. From August 13–16, expect free coffee for early birds, limited-edition drinks (“Moments That Matcha” is a thing), exclusive previews and plenty of photo ops.
So whether you’re wrist-deep in deadlines or heading out for a date night, DW’s pieces make your look feel polished, purposeful and just a little more put together.
4. Radiant Jewels
Old-world craftsmanship meets new-school cool at Radiant Jewels. Founded by Sydney siblings Disha and Raj – second-generation diamond aficionados – this label brings a fashion-forward lens to generations of expertise.
Here, natural and lab-grown diamonds sit side by side, each piece designed with intention and edge. The vibe is heirloom energy, without the formality. Understated sparkle, elevated silhouettes and that elusive sense of now.
5. The Cut Jewellery
Founded by former journalist Talitha Cummins and backed by decades of jewellery-making expertise from her uncle, master jeweller Craig Blizzard, this Aussie brand specialises in bespoke lab-grown diamond creations that are equal parts meaningful and magnificent.
Each piece is custom-designed in Australia, blending cutting-edge technology with old-school craftsmanship. Whether it’s an engagement ring or a just-because sparkler, The Cut’s designs are all about personal connection, individuality and that wow factor. Without the guilt. Ethically sourced, conflict-free, and entirely unforgettable, these are diamonds that shine with purpose.
6. Lindelli
Based in Sydney, cool, considered, quietly confident Lindelli works exclusively with lab-grown, carbon-neutral diamond. But, sidesteps the usual eco-luxury narrative for something far more refined. Almost architectural.
The new Cadre collection is built around a whisper-thin, structured bezel that transforms any diamond into wearable art. Sleek, weightless, and refined, Cadre reimagines the classic bezel setting to ensure the diamond remains the star. Standout pieces include the Cadre Pendants, available in 1-5 carats online, with bespoke carat weights and gemstone options available through the atelier.
Each piece proudly embodies Australian craftsmanship, crafted without compromise and designed to leave a lasting impression.
