Who We Are

Carbon Contemporary Jewellery is an independent, family-founded jewellery studio based in Brisbane, Australia. Guided by a belief in timeless design, exceptional craftsmanship, and jewellery that carries meaning beyond its materials. Each piece is thoughtfully created to reflect individuality, sentiment, and longevity - designed not for trends, but for a lifetime.

Carbon pieces are intentionally designed to feel both contemporary and enduring - jewellery that evolves with its wearer and remains relevant for generations. With a strong emphasis on craftsmanship and material integrity, Carbon Jewellery creates pieces that are understated yet distinctive, refined yet deeply personal.

Quality, precision, and care sit at the heart of the Carbon Contemporary Jewellery studio. Each piece is designed and crafted with close attention to detail, using precious metals and carefully selected diamonds and gemstones.

The studio experience is intentionally personal, offering private consultations where clients are guided through design, stone selection, and craftsmanship with clarity and confidence. From new creations to treasured repairs and restorations, every piece is handled with respect, expertise, and a commitment to enduring quality.

Our History

Carbon Jewellery was founded with a vision to offer a more personal, transparent, and craftsmanship-led approach to fine jewellery. Built on years of industry experience, the studio was established to move away from mass-produced designs and instead focus on considered, meaningful pieces made to last.

Over the years, Carbon has become trusted for its expertise in engagement and wedding jewellery, bespoke commissions, and complex remodelling projects, helping clients honour the past while creating something entirely new.

At Carbon Contemporary Jewellery, we believe fine jewellery should be personal, purposeful, and made to last a lifetime.
