Meet Fairina, a Sydney based jewellery designer
Hi, I'm Fairina.
Looking for jewellery that feels like you—not just something off the shelf? If mass-produced, cookie-cutter designs don’t speak to you, you’re in the right place.
As a Sydney-based jewellery designer, I specialise in custom engagement rings, heirloom remodelling, and bespoke creations, using ethically sourced materials and carefully chosen gemstones. Every design is crafted with intention, celebrating individuality in a way that traditional jewellery simply doesn’t.
If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind piece that reflects who you are, let’s make it happen.
Every piece tells a story. From alternative engagement rings to reimagined heirlooms, explore a selection of past designs crafted for those who dare to be different.

The custom jewellery design process
Let's start with your story, infuse your values and create something different
Step 1: Discuss
Whether online or in-person, we start with a chat about your story, style and what matters most to you.
Our process is a little unconventional. Rather than asking what size diamond you want, we explore what makes you unique.
Within an hour, we usually have a clear direction for a custom piece that’s anything but ordinary.
Step 2: Design
This is where your ideas take shape. We’ll sketch initial designs and introduce you to a curated selection of gemstones from our treasure trove.
Together, we’ll refine your custom design until every detail feels just right.
Step 3: Create
This is where your jewellery comes to life. We craft your piece with love and precision, and keep you updated throughout the process.
From the first spark of an idea, you’ll see your story transformed into a one-of-a-kind keepsake, ready to be loved for years to come.
Exclusive Gemstones & Ready-to-Wear Jewellery
Available in-store by appointment only
A curated selection of unique gemstones and ready-to-wear jewellery is available for viewing at our Sydney studio. Whether you're looking for a one-of-a-kind sapphire or a finished piece, explore these exclusive offerings in person.
What Our Sydney Clients Say
"I was determined to find a local Sydney jeweller, and Fairina was the perfect choice."
Without a doubt, Fairina is the most talented, creative...and patient jeweller I have ever met! I was determined to find a local Sydney jeweller to create a wedding band for me that would fit around my uniquely-shaped cluster engagement ring. It was so special to see the ring transform and to get an understanding of the huge amount of work involved in creating it. And the finished product - ABSOLUTELY stunning!! In fact, words can't really do justice to how excited I felt when I saw the finished ring for the first time, because I was so in love with it. Fairina is a creative genius and the most lovely person to work with.
Amy Burton (St Peters, Sydney, Australia)
"Thoughtful from start to finish, Fairina incorporated our family heirlooms into rings that felt deeply personal."
"Fairina was so thoughtful at every step of the process, she took the time to know us and work with us in designing the perfect engagement rings. Rings that incorporated some of our family heirlooms and new pieces she found that matched us perfectly!"
Mary-Ellen Pegley (Marrickville, Sydney, Australia)
"With Fairina’s help, our rings became unique and meaningful, beautifully tied together yet distinctly ours."
"We had a very vague idea of what we wanted, but with Fairina's help, she made us very individualistic rings, that had key elements that bind them together. Not only did the rings turn out GORGEOUS, but the process of fine-tuning the design and choosing the stones made them oh so personal – it’s precious! We highly recommend Fairina if you are looking for a truly personal piece of gorgeous jewellery."
Nicolena Lim (Rockdale, Sydney, Australia)
"Fairina guided me to the perfect ring, making the process effortless."
"Fairina was great at helping me develop a narrative around the design that was true to my partner, myself and our relationship. She helped me understand all the possibilities available to me but more importantly helped me narrow it down to the perfect ring.
Greg Clarke (Darlinghurst, Sydney, Australia)
