Here at Stephen Dibb Jewellery we find that many jewellery connoisseurs have a jewellery plan

A plan means that you end up with the “look” that you really want. The individual pieces work together in harmony to compliment your unique style and beauty…

A plan means that you save up for what you really want, you don’t compromise or over-spend…

A plan means you don’t fall victim to impulse jewellery purchases. It is so easy to temporarily fall for a cute but poorly-made, mass-produced, mass-marketed piece of jewellery and then regret it….

Ensure enticing gifts by mentioning your jewellery plans…

It is a good idea to mention your plan to your loved ones, for example “I’m building a charm-bracelet and I’d love some charms as presents” or “The jeweller has my jewellery plan, I’m working on a matching set of pendant, earrings and bracelet to go with my ring”.

If you do make a jewellery-purchasing mistake, don’t punish yourself…

Put the piece aside and have it re-made into a piece of your dream jewellery in the future. Some of the most wonderful jewellery we make comes from the redesigning of a few “mistakes” or inherited pieces which we make into a single piece of magnificent jewellery art. Over 50% of the jewellery on our website contains pieces that are re-designs of existing ‘mistake’ jewellery, so rest assured that whatever ‘mistake’ you have, Stephen Dibb Jewellery can fix it in one of our conveniently located Holland Park or Cleveland stores.

Invest in exquisite, hand-crafted jewellery…

Shrewd jewellery connoisseurs often use the “cost per use” theory where you pay more for things you wear every day. They bring us joy every day! They are worth much more than the fashion/fade purchases worn occasionally that often date quite quickly.

So if your jeweller wants to discuss your future jewellery plans, he is not trying to trick you into further purchases, he is trying to make sure that the piece you are purchasing fits in with your desired look and will not expire with the coming season.

Find your individuality through the versatility of tailor-made pieces…

I recently completed part of my wife’s jewellery plan. She now has two black diamond-pavé bands, two white diamond-pavé bands and a plain yellow gold band. Lisa was overjoyed because it has extended the flexibility of her existing jewellery. It has given her new combinations including more casual and more glamorous looks. She can wear anything from one to a stack of three bands to get the look she wants. It means she has a look that works with her yellow gold, her white gold, her silver as well as her black and white pearls. They have flattered and enhanced what she already loved. Lisa also liked that it was a long-term plan so she could be really sure and excited about it. Lisa said she found the jewellery plan empowering and really enjoyed talking to the designer – no it wasn’t me. She liked knowing that what she was asking for what was going to be great value. I’ve enjoyed watching her mix and match and express her individually.

Consider coming in and making a no obligation jewellery plan with one of the jewellery designers. They can give you lots of ideas on what will work with your colouring, lifestyle and existing jewellery. Also bring in your “jewellery mistakes” as Stephen Dibb Jewellery can make them into a wearable masterpiece!

Picking the best engagement ring to impress your lover is a decision you only make once, so make it count…

Congratulations on making your decision to propose to your loved one. Now you have come to the more difficult part – choosing the perfect engagement ring. At Stephen Dibb Jewellery we understand how complex and daunting it can be to shop for a ring when you are unsure of what you want or, more importantly, what she wants in an engagement ring. To make it easier for you, we have compiled some hints and tips to discovering the ultimate diamond ring that will be sure to impress her. Continue reading to uncover our secrets to finding your best diamond ring…

It is important to understand jeweller terminology…

Understanding what you are looking for is half the battle – and to get there it is beneficial to comprehend the terms used amongst jewellers and their customers. Knowing these will give you more confidence about what you are talking about and know that you are being understood. Below are some of the most commonly used terms at our boutique showroom:

• Setting – This refers to the way the diamond or stone is held in place by the band.
• The Four C’s – These refer to carat, colour, clarity and cut of the diamond or gemstone. These are generally discussed when the quality of the diamond or gemstone are assessed.

Now that you have a small insight into terminology, it is time to determine your budget…

The standard amount generally spent on an engagement ring is two to three months’ salary. Figuring out how much you can spend will help you to have a clear goal in mind, and give you more confidence in bargaining for the absolute best price.

Pay close attention to your spouse…

Have a close look at the jewellery she wears on a daily basis, and also jewellery she adorns for special events, such as weddings or other functions. By understanding her style, you can better choose an engagement ring that suits her tastes. This is an important step to buying the perfect engagement ring, so be sure to pay attention! If you are still unsure, ask her friends or family if they know what she likes.

Shop around…

It is widely known that the first ring you see will not always be the one to choose. Be sure to have a look at all the other options available – this is something you only do once, and it is important not to regret your ring choice!

Have a look at our gorgeous engagement ring selection…

At Stephen Dibb Jewellery in Brisbane, we are dedicated to creating exquisite engagement rings, specially made to be loved for an eternity. If you are after a unique and sophisticated diamond ring to truly showcase your love and affection, at Stephen Dibb we have a wide range of engagement ring options that are designed to leave her breathless.
