If you’ve felt overwhelmed, rushed in a jewellery shop or showroom, or unsure who to trust, you’re right. Shopping in jewellery stores is overwhelming, retail markups can be 300 percent, and most people get ripped off buying diamonds simply because they didn’t have an expert beside them.
At Burgundy Bespoke Jewellers, you do not walk into a showroom or browse pre-made diamond engagement rings, wedding rings, bracelets, earrings, necklaces, or other jewellery pieces. Instead, you meet directly with me, Michael Dransfield, your personal Ringman Wingman, bringing over 50 years of expertise to guide you through every decision.
Personal Guidance Without Pressure
No retail markups. No mass-produced settings. No pressure. Just the right lab grown diamond in the perfect setting for your budget, thoughtfully selected and beautifully made.
You work directly with me, not a salesperson, which means expert guidance, honest advice, and a personalised experience, whether you’re in Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney, or elsewhere in Australia.
Explore the Best Lab Grown Diamonds on Our Online Platform
You can search by cut, shape, carat weight, colour, clarity, polish, and many more filters to find the perfect lab grown diamond for your jewellery piece, including rings, pendants, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and bespoke engagement pieces, each made to reflect your personal style.
Because our diamond platform is connected directly to diamond dealers, clients regularly save 15 to 20 percent compared to a retail jewellery shop selling the same certified diamonds. This helps your investment go further, whether you want a round, oval, pear, radiant, marquise, emerald, princess, or a more unique diamond shape, grown or natural.
A Curated, Expert-Led Experience
But here is where Burgundy Bespoke Jewellers is different. You are never left guessing.
Instead of scrolling endlessly through thousands of diamonds, I personally select options within your budget and explain why one diamond may offer better value, better brilliance, or better long-term performance.
You are not comparing random diamonds. You are comparing curated, high-quality, certified diamonds chosen specifically for your needs, whether they are for engagement rings, wedding jewellery, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, or custom-made pieces created just for you.
No Shop, No Showroom, No Stock
You can shop online with confidence knowing:
We do not carry stock, which means you are never pushed toward a diamond simply because it is already in a display case or showroom. Every suggestion is made with your goals in mind.
We do not have pre-made rings, which ensures your engagement or wedding ring is a one-of-a-kind piece designed exclusively for you rather than mass-produced.
We design and create everything from scratch, giving you full control over your jewellery, whether you are designing rings, earrings, bracelets, necklaces, or custom diamond pieces made to last a lifetime.
Jewellery designs are shown during your consultation, so you can clearly visualise your ring or jewellery before it is made, providing reassurance and confidence throughout the process.
What Are Lab Grown Diamonds and How Are They Created?
Lab grown diamonds have the same crystal structure, hardness rating of 10 on the Mohs scale, and the same optical brilliance found in naturally occurring gemstones. The only difference is their origin.
While natural diamonds form deep within the earth over millions of years, lab grown diamonds are created under regulated laboratory conditions that ensure consistency, stability, and exceptional quality.
HPHT and CVD Diamond Creation Methods
- HPHT: Extreme pressure and temperature mimic the Earth’s natural foundation for creating diamonds.
- CVD: A carbon-rich vapour attaches to a seed, creating diamonds layer by layer.
Both methods create high-quality lab grown diamonds with exceptional polish, cut, optical qualities, and clarity. No matter which method is used, they are real diamonds, graded, certified, and ready to be crafted into beautiful bespoke engagement rings, wedding rings, bracelets, earrings, necklaces, and other jewellery pieces.
Why More Couples Are Choosing Lab Grown Diamonds for Their Engagement Rings
Buyers consistently choose lab grown diamonds because they offer:
- Ethical sourcing
- Sustainable origin
- High clarity and colour options
- Certified stones
- Exceptional brilliance
- Outstanding value
- Today’s couples want quality lab grown stones not only because they’re ethical, but because you often get a higher-quality diamond for your budget.
Instead of compromising on carat weight or clarity, you can create a premium custom design with confidence.
Fully Bespoke Jewellery, Made to Order
More importantly, when you work with me, your design isn’t chosen from a shelf. Every piece of jewellery is made to order, guided personally by your vision, your lifestyle, and your story.
Bespoke diamond engagement rings, wedding rings, earrings, necklaces, and other pieces take approximately four weeks to complete, and we can source a full range of certified diamonds and precious gemstones depending on your inspiration.
If your proposal needs to remain a secret, I help manage that too, from discreet communication to safe delivery options, ensuring the surprise stays intact.
Lab Grown vs Natural Diamonds: Understanding the Key Differences
Lab grown and natural diamonds share identical physical, chemical, and optical properties. Both are real diamonds. Both are made of pure carbon. Both offer exceptional beauty.
The primary differences are origin, environmental impact, and value.
| Feature | Lab Grown | Natural |
| Origin | Laboratory-grown | Mined from the earth |
| Chemical composition | Chemically identical | Chemically identical |
| Appearance | Visually identical | Visually identical |
| Price | More accessible | Higher due to mining processes |
| Environmental impact | More sustainable | Requires extensive mining |
| Certification | IGI or GIA graded | GIA or IGI graded |
| Durability | Same hardness | Same hardness |
Choosing between a natural diamond and lab grown diamond is not about quality. It is about preference, ethical considerations, and how you want your budget to work for you.
I help you understand these differences clearly so you can choose the right diamond with confidence.
The 4Cs Explained: How to Choose a Diamond That Suits Your Vision
When I guide you through the process, I explain each diamond element in simple, practical terms so you always know what you’re looking at and why it matters.
- Cut
Cut determines brilliance, fire, and sparkle. A beautifully cut diamond will outperform a larger diamond with inferior cutting. - Color
Lab grown stones range from icy white to warmer tones. Many clients prefer D to F diamond colour grades for engagement rings and wedding rings because they appear bright and premium. - Clarity
Clarity affects how clean the diamond appears. VS and VVS grades are highly popular because they offer excellent transparency without unnecessary cost increases. - Carat
Carat influences the visual weight of the diamond. The right size depends on your preferred proportions, finger size, and ring design.
I show you how different combinations affect appearance, value, and the overall design. You never have to guess.
