Hi everyone, was wondering if you could help me - I can't seem to find any ring that I absolutely love - although I quite fancy the Daniel K Union Square ring.  I like square/rectangular diamonds, lots of sparkle and platinum.  I was keen on a split shank (posted on here and had lots of great help) but now I'm not so sure.  I want something very stylish that makes a real impact.  Not keen on pave though. 
I'm in Melbourne and window shopping has been pretty disappointing - I'm open to purchasing a stone online but I guess I'm concerned because most of the posts here seem to be based in the US - does anyone in Australia have experience of buying online?
Thanks heaps - any pictures or links would be greatly appreciated - although I know I haven't given you a great deal to go on!

Hi Ruby,
Nearly a year ago I purchased a loose diamond from Melbourne Diamiond Exchange (=Icestore Australia) who have offices in Melbourne. It was set by Garry Holloway (Precious Metals in Canterbury and Brighton).

There were about 4 threads here which relate to my purchase. See:

Not a day go by that the I dont have a smile on my face every time i catch a glimpse of this ring. I am still totally satisfied with the purchase.

Hi Ruby,

I too, am a satisfied customer of Precious Metals. I've had several pieces made there, and am happy with the customer service. I purchased my diamonds from Good Old Gold, and cannot say enough good things about the impeccable level of service I received from Jon & his team, and the fabulous stones I got from there.

Precious Metals has a new catalog out, and there's a lovely square emerald ring with pave halo around it, very Daniel K-ish

Since you're in Melbourne, it'll be a breeze to pop into their store to have a look!

What has been walked on is not where I want to go.

Another vote for Garry, his knowledge is immense and his reputation second to none.  If I was in Oz I would always choose him as a vendor.









Nothing is more sacred as the bond between horse and rider...no other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse. When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be...
