Whether it’s a look-at-me pair of statement earrings or a dainty ring stack, check out these beloved Australian jewellery labels for the next shiny keepsake to add to your collection.

Brie Leon

Popping over to Brie Leon’s online store, we can always bank on finding something a little unexpected and that is precisely what we keep coming back for. Brie Leon's vintage-inspired pieces are striking without being oversized and bold without being gaudy. Expect unique pendants, fine chains and a smattering of semi-precious stones from this Sydney-based brand. 

Sitchu Pick: Inspired by classic watch links, each delicate link in the Agnes Chain Necklace is formed by hand, making it a piece to treasure forever.

Christie Nicolaides

Known for her exuberant jewellery and baroque-inspired pieces, Australian designer Christie Nicolaides has garnered a cult following. Drawing influence from her Greek heritage, far-flung travels and love of art and antiquities, Nicolaides’ designs are a study in bohemian glamour and excess, dripping with colourful stones and floral motifs. 

Sitchu Pick: We love the Eliana Earrings that combine bold blue and pink-hued crystals with delicate freshwater Baroque Pearls.

Avant Studio

New generation jeweller Avant Studio has reinvented its brand signatures with its latest drop, Core Nouveau. Drawing on the French heritage of their namesake (avant translates to "before"), the collection encapsulates the rustic French charm of a seaside village, with asymmetrical designs inspired by artist Henri Matisse and aquamarine jewels reminiscent of a bygone era.

Sitchu Pick: The Zinnia Hoops are perfect for transitioning day to night, and can be worn two ways.

Bonito

It was Bonito’s gorgeous ear climbers (like these best-sellers) that alerted us to the Sydney-based brand but it's every new release since that has had us waiting with bated breath. Specialising in creating intentionally designed pieces to jingle from your wrists, ankles and neck, all Bonito pieces are designed in Sydney and crafted by skilled artisans across the world. 

Sitchu Pick: Their latest collection is an ode to summer nights out on the town, and these Lemon Quartz Cascade Earrings are big, bold and bright.

Francesca 

Originally established at Hobart's Salamanca Markets, this much-loved brand is run by two sisters. They craft plenty of on-trend staples from gold huggies to delicate thread throughs as well as a series of personalised pieces. Their modern take on personalised lockets is a favourite  - simply pick a locket and chain and select your most cherished memory to include and you have a customised piece to last forever. 

Sitchu Pick: We love the Cove Hoops in gold. Their on-trend shape (FYI, they're a near-perfect dupe for the viral Bottega Veneta drop earrings) means they're the perfect pair for any time of the day. 

Sarah & Sebastian

Sarah & Sebastian make beautiful fine jewellery – think delicate necklaces and rings perfect for layering – as well as striking sculptural pieces that are a statement all on their own. Their designs comprise both avant-garde modernity and fresh interpretations of the classics, with each piece handcrafted in their Sydney studio from ethically sourced stones, reclaimed gold and silver.

Sitchu Pick: We love this Petite Whale Necklace for a subtle, yet super cute, summer look.

FinerRings

Designed in Melbourne, this quality, affordable jewellery brand from humble beginnings (think an online store and pop-ups at local markets) has grown into a company with five retail boutiques. Priding themselves on using the very best materials, their beautiful pieces are made to be personalised, and are perfect for everyday wear or for something more special. 

Sitchu Pick: Perfect for building your ear stack, we love The Grace Trio set. Available in both Sterling Silver and 14k Gold Filled, they also feature freshwater Pearls for a timeless, yet on-trend, look.

By Charlotte

Combining the spiritual with the beautiful, every piece by the bohemian-inspired jewellery brand By Charlotte comes with a deeper meaning. The brand has also just released its first lab-grown diamond collection, inspired by the transformative journey of the lotus flower.

Sitchu Pick: A beautiful keepsake, the 14k Gold Blossom Lab-Grown Diamond Ring has been intricately designed and is the epitome of understated luxury. 

Amber Sceats

Drawing on a deep appreciation for art, travel, and architecture, Amber Sceats is best known for creating abstract jewellery that is like wearable works of art. Often playing with resin, beading, and irregular pearls, each piece exudes individuality and elegance with a cool girl edge. 

Sitchu Pick: With a striking curvaceous silhouette, the statement Lucia Earrings are adorned in sparkling cubic zirconia crystals.

YCL Jewels

Combining the spiritual with the beautiful, every piece by Australian jewellery brand YCL Jewels ignites a soul connection. Minimalist and undeniably feminine, its award-winning collections of ethically produced astrology pendants have exploded on Instagram thanks to its use of high-calibre materials -think 14-carat gold and silver - and whimsical designs. 

Sitchu Pick: The Angel Number necklaces are selling out fast, with each number combination offering a different sign from the universe. The 444 pendant is a favourite for those seeking protection.

Arms of Eve

An Instagram feed favourite, Arms of Eve is all about effortless and affordable jewellery that celebrates beauty, crosses culture, defies trends and spans seasons. Each piece is designed and sourced by founder Kerryn Langer in the Sydney studio and mindfully crafted around the world by accredited and ethical artisans. 

Sitchu Pick: The brand's new summer collection has just dropped, and we're lusting over the vibrant colour of the Bloom Pearl and Gemstone Bracelet. 

Pastiche

With an ethos that no outfit is complete with jewellery, Australian-owned and Australian-designed Pastiche's jewellery is inspired by the country's natural beauty. 

Sitchu Pick: The Juna Hoops seamlessly blend bold design with refined glamour, thanks to a combination of lustrous pearls and dazzling Cubic Zirconias.

Medley Jewellery

Medley Jewellery is an Australian-owned, Brisbane-based brand designed to be ‘worn for nobody’, meaning that their pieces don’t follow fast-paced fashion fads. These ethically crafted pieces are made for longevity, with a timeless yet modern aesthetic that quietly elevates any outfit. 

Sitchu Pick: We're adding this double twist chain to our core jewellery collection.

SAINT VALENTINE

Few accessories can elevate an outfit like a grand piece of jewellery, and SAINT VALENTINE's sophisticated staples are no exception. The classy pieces are crafted from ethically sourced materials and the brand even offers a 50% store credit in exchange for returning your pre-loved purchases.

Sitchu Pick: It's official: we've found our new favourite gold hoops.  These Forma Hoops are shapely enough to stand on their own or act as an eye-catching part of any ear stack. 

Mountain & Moon

More is more at Western Australian jewellery label Mountain & Moon, where opulence and maximalism rule the roost. With glamourous designs that blend influences from across eras, cultures and aesthetics, they’re all about strong and striking jewellery that has you feeling like a queen. 

Sitchu Pick: The Valeria Ring is the cocktail ring of the moment, with vivid pink and green enamel details framing a Ruby quartz gemstone.

Sitchu Picks: Pretty in pink, this Peony Necklace is beautifully simple and understated (with just the right amount of pop).

Reliquia

Named after the Spanish term for ‘heirloom’, Reliquia’s vintage-inspired pieces are designed to be worn, season after season as symbols of self. Timeless silhouettes and strong geometrical shapes take cues from both the Art Deco era and your grandmother’s jewellery box (think biblical motifs and twisted rope textures).

Sitchu Pick: The Tito Earrings add a touch of glitz and glamour to any look, thanks to their curved, shell-like style.

Temple of the Sun

Hailing from the creative mecca that is Byron Bay, Temple of the Sun is our go-to for sustainably made jewellery with a whimsical yet understated edge. The handcrafted designs take inspiration from ancient symbology, so you can expect plenty of astrological and Ancient Grecian references in modern, easy-to-wear designs. 

Sitchu Pick: The quintessential statement piece, the Greca Chain Necklace from their latest collection is bold (and very gold).

GIMME

Proclaimed as the "home of Damn Irresistible Accessories", GIMME believes adding jewellery to your look does more than just elevate your outfit...it can lift your mood and confidence too. Their high-quality collections offer a mix of classic and trend-based looks, all at an affordable price.

Lucy Folk

A goldsmith by trade, Melbourne-based Lucy Folk and her studio create jewellery with high-quality craftsmanship, eclectic design and a sense of whimsy. Colourful twizzler necklaces, oversized metallic crochet earrings and signets carved with Roman deities add playfulness to any outfit, and we can’t go past their adorable friendship bracelets that are a study in nostalgia.

Sitchu Pick: The Pearl Diver Crochet Bracelet is a best-seller, featuring ten freshwater pearls and a delicate, handwoven crochet sleeve that curves playfully around the wrist. Shop here $195 from Lucy Folk.

CUSHLA WHITING

It's a true family affair at luxury label CUSHLA WHITING, where siblings Anna, Cushla and Hamish combine their talents to produce perfectly crafted pieces.
