Found: the "perfect" diamond - all 3 carats!


Blinding white sparkle AND amazing finger coverage! I wonder which woman will be lucky enough to wear this 1cmx1cm diamond everyday? How much does it cost, I hear you ask. If you have to ask, it's likely too much! (In case you're genuinely curious, it can be yours for a cool $380k).

Just like wearing a house on your ring finger!

Cute as a button!


I just came across this adorable pair of matching rubies. They would make really cute earrings to spoil yourself or to buy for a special someone. These rubies come from Tanzania and are all natural - no heat treatment to get the lovely rich red colour.

Their specs are:
Ruby #1 is 0.55 carats, vivid colour, VVS1 clarity
Ruby #2 is 0.61 carats, vivid colour, VS2 clarity

Best of all, they can be yours for less than $1,500 (rubies only)!

My budget is $2000 - what can I get for that?

Many people claim that it is "tradition" for a man to spend two to three months salary on his partner's engagement ring. In today's terms, that equals to a lot of money for most of us. For those of us who don't have $10k+ to spend on a piece of jewellery, below are some ideas of what $2000 can buy you.



Above: 18 karat white gold Tiffany-inspired four prong setting with 0.72 princess cut diamond, G colour, VS2, triple excellent cut (AGS 000)



Above: 18 karat white gold nine stone wedding band with 1.03 total carat weight of diamonds


Above: 18 karat gold band with pave diamonds (0.25 total carat weight) and 0.75 carat pear diamond


If you are interested in a ring inspired by the above, please contact us on findmydreamring@gmail.com

After you place your order

After you send me your initial email, I will consult with my network of international vendors to find you what you're after. I generally aim to give you at least three quotes for pieces that meet your requirements. Along with the price quotes, I will provide you with pictures, grading certificates and other supporting material so you know what you're buying.

Once you let me know of your preferred selection and any changes, I will send you a detailed invoice with a breakdown in costs. This will include the price of the item, shipping costs, customs and GST and the fee for my services. This fee is 5% of the cost of the item or $100, whichever is higher.

I encourage all interested customers to compare the quotes that I provide with your local jewellery store. You will see that even with my fee, you will end up saving hundreds or thousands of dollars.

After you receive the piece of jewellery, take it to an independent valuer. I can guarantee you will be blown away by the amount of money you saved!

How to place an order with us

If you like what you've read about us so far and want to join us in a diamond finding adventure, this is what you need to do. Send an email to findmydreamring@gmail.com with the below information:

  • Your budget;
  • Ideal carat weight of centre stone (this can be a range);
  • If you don't want a solitaire setting, provide us with the total carat weight for the entire piece;
  • Diamond shape;
  • Cut grade (excellent/ideal, very good or good). Please also let us know if you're interested in premium "branded" cuts. These are diamonds of the highest quality with sparkle to match. However, they do attract a premium cost;
  • Minimum colour grade
  • Clarity grade - from IF (internally flawless) to SI2 (small inclusions).
  • Setting - solitaire setting, solitaire with diamond or coloured gem side stones, pave setting, halo setting, three stone setting, five stone ring, etc. We can also help with getting a piece custom designed.
  • Overall look of the piece. Do you want something traditional, unique, antique-inspired, edgy modern or something else entirely?
Alternatively, just provide us with your budget and an overall look and we can do the rest!

Find My Dream Ring - About Us

Find My Dream Ring is an innovative business that aims to bring spectacular, high quality diamonds to Australian consumers at a fraction of the normal retail price.

We deal directly with a huge network of diamond vendors around the world, from Australia and Asia to the Americas. This allows us to offer you the best quality jewellery for the most competitive prices.

We don't believe in pushy, high pressure selling. From your initial contact with us, we will work with you to find the diamond/s of your dreams that fit within your budget. No budget is too big or small - we will find the best deal for you!

Our specialties include: beautiful, sparkly white diamonds in all cuts and sizes (including hard-to-find cuts such as August vintage cushions, among others), vivid coloured diamonds, gorgeous sapphires in every colour imaginable, custom-made jewellery and more. We don't just do engagement rings either! We can help source earrings, pendants, eternity rings, wedding bands, bracelets and more.

We know that it is hard to make a big purchase like diamond jewellery online. That's why we provide you with as much information as possible to help you feel confident in your decision to do business with us. Depending on the vendor we're dealing with, we can provide you with photos of the diamond and setting, ASET images (scans that show light distribution in the stone), videos and copies of the lab certificate so you know exactly what you're paying for.

Also, unlike many retail stores, we only sell certified diamonds that are graded and assessed by the world's top two laboratories - GIA and AGS. This means that the stones are accurately measured against strict criteria to determine their quality. I am also certified as a diamond and gemstone consultant by the Gemmological Institute of Australia so you can be confident in my knowledge.
