Engagement Rings
Sunshine Coast

Engagement rings designed and handcrafted at our Cotton Tree workshop — built around the person who will wear it, not an average finger.

A bespoke diamond engagement ring handcrafted at NY2K Jewellers, Cotton Tree

Engagement rings, custom designed.

NY2K Jewellers designs and handcrafts engagement rings in its own workshop at Rovera Plaza, Cotton Tree, on the Sunshine Coast, and has done since 2004. Each ring is made around the stone you choose — a natural diamond by default, lab-grown on request, or a sapphire or certified Argyle pink — in gold or platinum, and quoted individually before any work begins.

We don't believe in one-size-fits-all. From your first consultation to the final polish, we work closely with you to bring your vision to life — whether you have a clear idea or need guidance, our experienced jewellers will help you design a ring that reflects your personal style, values, and story.

Built on three promises.

Natural Diamonds

Natural, earth-mined diamonds are our speciality and what we work with by default. Lab-grown can be sourced on request.

Handcrafted Locally

Most pieces are made by hand at our bench in Cotton Tree, Maroochydore.

Cared For Afterwards

Cleaning, inspection and servicing for the pieces we make, at the same bench that made them.

The stone comes first.

NY2K Jewellers has direct access to the global diamond and gemstone market, attending international trade shows to source stones that simply are not available through local suppliers. From classic round brilliant diamonds to sapphires, tanzanites, and rare fancy coloured stones - we will find the centrepiece for your ring within your budget.

When selecting a diamond, understanding the 4Cs — cut, colour, clarity and carat — is essential. The team at NY2K Jewellers will walk you through each one in plain language so you can make a confident and informed choice.

Cut, colour, clarity, carat.

Cut

How well the diamond is shaped and faceted. It dictates the stone's sparkle, fire, and brilliance.

Colour

The absence or presence of a natural color tint in a diamond. Graded from D (colourless) to Z (light yellow).

Clarity

The presence of internal or external flaws (inclusions). Most imperfections are microscopic.

Carat

The physical weight and size of the diamond.

Gemstone options.

  • Sapphire Durability & colour.
  • Ruby Passion & rarity.
  • Emerald Elegance & heritage.
  • Morganite Soft & romantic.
  • Aquamarine Serene & unique.
  • Opal Unique and colourful.

Made here, entirely.

Handcrafted in Our Maroochydore Workshop

At NY2K Jewellers, every creation is brought to life in-house, with our skilled jewellers overseeing each stage of the process from the initial concept and sketch through to forming, setting, polishing and final finishing.

This hands-on approach allows us to maintain exceptional attention to detail and craftsmanship at every step, ensuring each piece is made with care and precision.

Through our exclusive workshop viewing window, you can watch our jewellers meticulously craft and refine each piece, offering a unique glimpse into the traditional skills and expertise that bring your jewellery to life.

A Ring Built to Last a Lifetime

Every engagement ring we create is designed to be worn and cherished every day for decades to come. We combine traditional goldsmithing techniques with carefully selected materials and meticulous attention to detail, ensuring every element is considered for both beauty and durability.

We take a considered approach to every aspect of its construction. Our jewellers understand that an engagement ring is more than a beautiful piece of jewellery - it is something that will become part of your story and be passed down through generations.

Because exceptional jewellery should not only look exquisite — it should be thoughtfully made, structurally sound and built to last.

Natural Stones, Sourced Directly

Natural, earth-mined diamonds are our speciality, sourced through established direct-trade relationships rather than traditional retail channels. Lab-grown diamonds are also available upon request. Where applicable, diamonds are supplied with independent certification for added confidence and transparency.

Engagement ring questions, answered.

Can I design a custom engagement ring?

Yes — bespoke engagement rings are one of our specialities. We design and handcraft each ring on-site in our Cotton Tree workshop, so you can create something completely unique, from a classic solitaire to an entirely original design.

Do you use natural or lab-grown diamonds in your engagement rings?

Natural, earth-mined diamonds are our speciality and what we work with by default. Lab-grown diamonds can be sourced on your request. We can also source coloured stones like Australian sapphires and rare Argyle pink diamonds for non traditional engagement rings.

Can I try on engagement rings before ordering?

Yes. We keep finished engagement rings at our studio at Rovera Plaza, Cotton Tree, open Monday to Friday 9:30am to 4:00pm and Saturdays by appointment. Trying a few shapes and settings is the quickest way to find what suits your hand. See the rings in the studio now.

How far in advance should I order a custom engagement ring?

Every ring is different, so the timeframe depends on the design, the stone and the amount of hand fabrication involved. Sourcing a specific or rare gemstone can extend the process.

If you are working towards a particular proposal date or special occasion, we encourage you to let us know at the beginning of the process. When preparing your quotation, we can discuss the required timeframe and confirm what can be achieved to ensure your piece is completed with the care and attention it deserves.

How much does a custom engagement ring cost?

Each ring is quoted individually, based on the design, metal and diamond/gemstone you choose. We will provide a clear quote after your consultation, before any work begins. Book a consultation for a personalised estimate.

Can you make a wedding band to match my engagement ring?

Yes. We make wedding bands shaped to sit flush against the engagement ring, whether we made the ring or not, and we make matching pairs for both partners. See our wedding bands, or browse the bands in the studio now.

Can I book an appointment to discuss my engagement ring?

Most definitely. You are welcome to visit our Cotton Tree showroom during opening hours (Monday to Friday, 9:30am–4pm) and appointments can be arranged online through our booking page. Saturday or after hours appointments are available if pre-booked in advance with Paul.

Let's create your perfect ring.

Book a complimentary, relaxed consultation at our Cotton Tree showroom and begin your jewellery journey with us. Bring your ideas, inspiration, sketches or treasured heirloom stone — or simply come with an open mind.

Our experienced jewellers will guide you through the process, helping you explore the possibilities and bring your vision to life. Whether you know exactly what you want or are looking for inspiration, we will take the time to understand your style and create something truly personal.
