Wesley Mission Red Bag Appeal with Green tourmaline, Ruby and Diamond ring with a yellow gold band. We love to dress up for the races but sometimes we just don't want to wear what's in fashion, because it either looks just too dam uncomfortable to wear all day or it just doesn't suit our taste or body type.
The answer is to wear something elegant and timeless, but dress it up or give it a different look with all of the accessories. Therefore, it is much easier to go shopping and find matching shoes, handbag and jewellery so that it can suit multiple outfits. Jewellery can invoke a memory of a significant event in our lives - a special gift at a special time - an engagement, the birth of a child, anniversary.

After being referred by family, we have now had three rings designed and crafted by the McKim team for my wife and daughter over the last couple of years, and they frequently remind me how happy they are with all three! The last involved a stone my wife was particularly keen on and which Craig generously kept aside for her while we decided what to do with it.
Not only is the resultant jewellery beautiful, Craig's process of developing each piece is very professional. He took the time to find out what aspects were important to us personally, offering good practical advice and handy tips, drew up

I recently made a vague and unusual request to set a high value stone in a pendant that I had no inspiration for. Craig helped me find the vocabulary to describe what I like and came up with an absolutely beautiful, unique, modern design and created it exactly as discussed.
I am getting all of the compliments on it and never hesitate to refer people to him. 110% satisfied.

Craig made my engagement, wedding and eternity rings. I have since had a beautiful ring designed and made by Craig to incorporate my late mother’s engagement and eternity rings. I absolutely love it. He has also made me a diamond pendant and just recently beautiful diamond stud earrings. His expertise and craftsmanship is faultless.

I honestly can't thank McKims enough. I had a VERY sentimental ring gifted to me from my partner for my 21st (few years ago), it had then fallen out of my bag on the road and was run over... several times.
I asked Michael to save me and he really took into account how special this ring is to me and saved it completely!!! It went from an unrecognizable bit of silver with some destroyed leaves delicate leaves, and they made it look brand new again. And I mean brand new!!!!
I'm so overwhelmed and couldn't be happier. Thank you so so much!

Having recently become engaged - with a stone rather than a ring - we found ourselves in the market for a good jeweller, with no idea who to work with. I knew it needed to be someone with really good workmanship as I wanted a very simple, elegant design... and there's nowhere to hide when you go simple!
Having researched (what felt like) every jeweller in Brisbane, the one that I kept going back to was McKims because everything I saw looked and sounded precise, professional AND friendly... and that's exactly what we experienced, too. Craig took the time to really listen, he showed us examples

Love love love my new ring from Craig McKim (and thank you to my generous husband too I suppose 😁). Craig has also done a beautiful remodel of some old rings into a pendant for me as well. I love the careful way he takes you through the remodelling options to ensure he understands exactly what you want. Thank you Craig 😊

A very big thank you to Craig McKim for the wonderful job he has done with a couple of modifications to my engagement ring for me. It looks amazing! I received it back yesterday & I love it as much as I did when I first received it. I can't recommend Craig enough. I love everything I have purchased at McKim's Jewellery Design & am looking forward to my next purchase.

Went to get my engagement ring from overseas re-sized and re-shaped.
Craig was fantastic. As my ring was new (and the most expensive thing I own) I was anxious about its re-size and shape. However, Craig was very patient with me, took time for me to decide on what I wanted and explained everything in detail.
I must also say, that although my ring was bought elsewhere and wasn’t as ‘top of the range’ as some of the Jewellery that McKims make and sell themselves – there was no snobbery, they were warm, helpful and friendly and understood how much my piece of jewellery meant to me.

I had spoken to a couple of different designers when the time came to start planning the ring to propose with, but Craig really stood out from the rest. Other designers seemed to make the process feel superficial. Pick your diamond, pick your set, pay your money; done. I guess this is the trap of repetition for them.
Craig was vastly different. He engaged the creative discussion over a few sessions, he took the time to get to know the history of the relationship and through those discussions together were able to craft a design which was personal and had a story behind it. Further to this, he
