Engagement Rings

Yes. Every ring here is finished and ready to wear. Order before 2pm (Sydney time), Monday to Friday, and we dispatch the same day by free, fully insured Australia Post Express Post, with a signature on delivery. Resized rings are dispatched within 2 business days. You’re also welcome to buy in store at Darby Street or Westfield Kotara.

Absolutely. Book a complimentary viewing in store or a virtual appointment, and let us know which ring you’d like to see. Booking doesn’t reserve the ring, and as many are one of a kind, it may sell before your appointment.

Simply select “I’m not sure” when purchasing your ring and our team will work with you to find the correct size. We can send you a complimentary ring sizing kit to help you determine your size at home. We’ll safely hold your ring with us until your size is confirmed, then professionally resize it before sending it to you.

Most rings in this collection are a size M and can be resized from a K to a P. If the ring is a surprise, we have a few discreet ways to help you work out your partner’s ring size without giving the secret away.

Yes. Rings bought online from this collection can be returned for change of mind within 30 days of delivery. The ring must be unworn and in its original packaging with its certificate, and return postage is at your cost. Resized or engraved rings and sale items can’t be returned for change of mind. Contact our team and we’ll guide you through it.

Both are real diamonds, with the same hardness, sparkle and make-up. A natural diamond formed in the earth over millions of years; a lab grown diamond is grown in a controlled environment over a few weeks. A lab grown diamond costs less for the same size and quality, so you can often choose a larger stone. Read our guide: Lab Grown vs Natural Diamonds.

Yes. Our whole diamond range is independently certified, and centre diamonds have a grading report from IGI, GIA, HRD, WISE or GSL. The report number is in the Product Details. IGI, HRD, WISE and GSL reports come as a printed certificate with your ring; GIA issues printed reports for natural diamonds and digital reports for lab grown diamonds.

For a ring you’ll wear every day, we recommend 18k gold or platinum. 18k gold wears more slowly than 9k or 14k, and if it’s knocked it tends to bend rather than snap. Platinum is naturally white and never needs rhodium plating, and across our range it’s the same price as 18k white gold.

Yes. Pieces of $2,000 or more include our Lifetime Care Guarantee because we believe your jewellery should be treasured and enjoyed for a lifetime.

Our commitment is designed to help you care for your piece for years to come, with ongoing services and support from our experienced team.

To maintain your Lifetime Care Guarantee, your ring needs to be inspected by our team every 12 months. It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure the ring is returned to Matthews Jewellers for these inspections, allowing our jewellers to check the settings, stones and overall condition of your piece.

Yes. Afterpay and Zip are available at checkout, within the spending limit each sets for you. Zip fees may apply, so please check with Zip.

We also offer lay-by: a 25% deposit, then fortnightly payments over up to three months. Contact our team to set one up. See our Lay-by Policy.
