While winter might not bring snow to the Sunshine Coast, it does bring clear skies, crisp sunsets, and a calmness that makes it one of the most romantic times of year to propose. The air is fresh, the crowds are thinner, and the natural beauty of the region takes on a serene charm. Whether you’re dreaming of something low-key and intimate or a grand gesture against a stunning backdrop, here are some beautifully chilled-out ideas for popping the question this season.

1. Sunrise Proposal on Mount Coolum: A Breathtaking Beginning

There’s something undeniably powerful about starting the day on a summit, witnessing the world awaken beneath you—especially with a diamond in your pocket. Mount Coolum offers a rewarding but achievable climb, perfect for a pre-dawn adventure. Imagine reaching the top just as the first rays of sunlight paint the sky in soft pastel hues, the ocean stretching out like a shimmering canvas. This is the moment. As the golden light bathes everything around you, get down on one knee and ask the most important question of your life. Don’t forget a thermos of hot coffee or tea to toast your future together amidst the breathtaking panoramic views. The crisp winter air will only add to the magic of this unforgettable sunrise proposal.

2. A Private Picnic at Point Cartwright: Coastal Charm and Cozy Delights

Point Cartwright, with its iconic lighthouse and sweeping ocean vistas, offers a truly picturesque setting for a romantic proposal. Pack a luxe winter picnic, moving beyond the usual sandwiches to include gourmet pastries, artisanal cheeses, and perhaps even a warm, spiced mulled wine to ward off the gentle chill. Find a secluded spot near the lighthouse, with the rhythmic sound of the waves as your soundtrack. Time your picnic for the golden hour, that magical period just before sunset when the light casts a warm, romantic glow over everything. As you share delicious treats and soak in the stunning scenery, surprise your partner with a heartfelt proposal they’ll never see coming. The combination of the beautiful location and the thoughtful details of your picnic will create a truly cherished memory.

3. Fireside Proposal at a Hinterland Airbnb: Intimate Warmth and Rustic Romance

Escape the coast for a weekend retreat in the enchanting Sunshine Coast hinterland. Dotted with hidden cabins and cozy stays, the hinterland in winter exudes a unique charm. Book a getaway with a crackling fireplace as the centrepiece. Let the warmth and ambiance of the setting create the perfect intimate atmosphere. You could surprise them with the ring tucked into a vintage book you’re reading together, revealed during a quiet moment by the fire. Or perhaps incorporate it into a shared puzzle, with the final piece completing the question. The privacy and tranquility of a hinterland escape, coupled with the cozy intimacy of a fireside proposal, offer a wonderfully romantic and personal experience.

4. Champagne & Sunset at Noosa National Park: Natural Beauty and Golden Moments

Noosa National Park is renowned for its stunning coastal tracks and breathtaking lookouts. In winter, the crowds are thinner, allowing for a more secluded and intimate experience. Find a quiet vantage point along the coastal track—Tea Tree Bay or Granite Bay are particularly beautiful spots offering stunning ocean views. As winter brings earlier sunsets, plan your proposal to coincide with this magical time of day. Pop the champagne, soak in the vibrant colours painting the sky, and ask your partner to spend forever with you against this incredible natural backdrop. With the "yes" secured, you'll still have plenty of time to enjoy a celebratory dinner at one of Noosa's renowned restaurants.

5. Proposal with a Private Ring Design Experience: A Unique and Lasting Memory with Morgan & Co

For a truly unique and deeply personal proposal, consider starting your journey towards forever at Morgan & Co, a premier Sunshine Coast jeweller located in Buderim. Imagine surprising your loved one with a private appointment at their studio. Pop the question first in their elegant setting, creating an immediate and unforgettable moment. Then, with the excitement still in the air and champagne in hand, spend the morning together designing your perfect engagement ring. This thoughtful approach allows you to create a symbol of your love that is entirely unique to your relationship. Morgan & Co’s expert team will guide you through the process, ensuring the ring is not only beautiful but also a reflection of your shared style and story. This experience is not just a proposal; it’s the beginning of your life together, marked by a collaborative and meaningful creation. Morgan & Co understands the significance of this moment and is dedicated to helping you craft a ring that will be treasured for generations to come. Beyond the engagement ring, they are also there for all your future jewellery needs, from wedding bands to anniversary gifts, becoming a part of your ongoing love story.

6. Beach Bonfire & Blanket Proposal at Mudjimba: Stars, Waves, and Warmth

For a more relaxed and bohemian vibe, consider a beach bonfire proposal at Mudjimba. With the help of a few close friends acting discreetly behind the scenes, set up a cozy scene with a permitted fire pit (always check local regulations), warm blankets, and perhaps even some fairy lights to add to the ambiance. As the stars begin to pepper the clear winter sky and the sound of the waves provides a natural soundtrack, invite your partner to snuggle up by the fire. This intimate and magical setting is the perfect place to ask for their hand in marriage. You could even have your favourite song playing softly in the background. The combination of the crackling fire, the starry sky, and the sound of the ocean creates a wonderfully romantic and unforgettable atmosphere.

Closing Thoughts

Winter proposals on the Sunshine Coast aren’t about snowdrifts and frosty mornings; they’re about embracing the season’s unique charm – the clear skies, the vibrant sunsets, and the peaceful atmosphere. It’s about slowing down, being present, and creating warmth in your own special way. However you choose to ask the question, let it reflect your unique bond as a couple and make it feel like coming home. And remember, for a truly bespoke symbol of your commitment, Morgan & Co on the Sunshine Coast is there to help you craft an engagement ring and beyond that will tell your story beautifully.

Morgan & Co jewellery love hearing our clients' engagement journey. We have found that many times the man may need a subtle hint to get on the same page as his lovey lady. 

So yes, it’s perfectly okay to drop hints about wanting to get engaged, as long as it's done thoughtfully and respectfully. Many couples reach a point where discussing the future, including engagement, is a natural part of their relationship. Here are a few things to keep in mind.

Why It's OK to Drop Hints

Opens Communication — Hints can lead to open and honest conversations about your future together. It ensures you're both on the same page about the direction of the relationship.

Helps Gauge Readiness —Dropping subtle hints allows you to test the waters and see how your partner feels about getting engaged without putting too much pressure on them.

Takes the Guesswork Out — Sometimes, your partner may be thinking about engagement but is unsure when the right time is. Hints can give them reassurance that you're ready too.

How to Do It Subtly

Talk About the Future — Mention your long-term plans as a couple in a casual way. You can talk about trips, buying a home, or other future milestones, naturally leading into engagement discussions.

Drop Positive Hints About Friends’ Engagements — When a friend gets engaged, you could casually say something like, “That’s so exciting! I’d love that one day.”

Be Playful — You can add a bit of humour to lighten the mood, like playfully asking, “If you were going to propose, would it be a surprise or would you ask first?”

Discuss Values & Goals — Talk about the deeper aspects of marriage — commitment, partnership, and what it means to both of you. This helps align your goals and sets the stage for a natural conversation about engagement.

Mention Engagement Ring Preferences — As we discussed earlier, you can drop hints about your ring preferences. It can signal you're thinking about the next step, without being overly direct about the timing.

When to Be Direct

If you've been together for a while and feel strongly about getting engaged soon, a direct but calm conversation might be necessary. Open communication can help avoid confusion or frustration.

Ultimately, it's about respecting your partner's pace while also expressing your desires and hopes for the future.

Now that you are sure you are both on the same page in regards to wanting to get engaged. Here are some more subtle ways to drop hints about the engagement ring you want:

Leave your phone on the instagram page that highlights Morgan Co Jewellery: Strategically leave  the page open with your favourite rings.

Compliment Strangers’ Rings: If you’re out and notice someone with a ring  you like, make a positive comment about it in front of him. It’s an easy way to showcase your style preferences.

Alternatively, If your friend or acquaintance gets engaged and you don't like the shape or design, let your partner know your thoughts. 

Casual Conversations with Friends: When talking to friends in front of him, you can bring up ring styles you love or show your friends pictures of rings, knowing he’s listening.

Plan a “Just for Fun” Shopping Trip: Suggest going window shopping or make a diamond education appointment with Morgan Co jewellery, Sunshine Coast as a fun activity.  Casually point out rings you like, without making it too serious.

Create a “Dream List”: If you’re using a shared shopping account or wish list service (like Amazon or other gift registries), add a few rings you like. He may check it for future gift ideas!

Use Your Phone Background: Change your phone wallpaper or lock screen to an image of your dream ring. If he happens to notice, you can explain how much you love that style.

Talk About Celebrity Engagements: When discussing celebrity engagements or proposals, casually mention aspects of the ring that stand out to you, like the cut, setting, or metal.

Ask for “Style Advice”: Ask his opinion on jewellery styles when you're out shopping for other accessories, like earrings or necklaces. This might lead to a conversation about ring preferences.

Morgan Co Jewellery: Diamond education appointment 

Morgan Co, Sunshine Coast, offers a complimentary one-hour appointment to help couples understand the significance of knowing exactly what they are investing in when purchasing an engagement ring. This session provides valuable insights into the key factors that influence the value and quality of the ring, ensuring couples make informed decisions.

By bringing up  diamond and gold education can be a clever and natural segue into discussing engagement. It allows you to casually introduce the topic while sharing interesting information. Here’s how you can approach it in a light and engaging way:

How to Use Diamond & Gold Education to Lead Into Engagement Talks

Start with General Interest — Begin by expressing a curiosity or newfound interest in diamonds or gold. For example, you could say:

"I was reading about the different types of diamonds and it’s so fascinating how they’re graded based on the 4Cs—cut, clarity, colour, and carat weight!"

"Did you know there’s a big difference between 14ct and 18ct gold? Apparently, the higher the carat, the purer the gold, but it's also softer."

Talk About Ring Styles — Once you're discussing diamonds and gold, you can naturally transition into ring styles and preferences. You might say:

"I’ve learned that Old Mine Cut diamonds have such a vintage charm, but I also love how modern round cuts sparkle more. Which one do you think looks better?"

"I never realised how many options there are for engagement rings. Some people prefer yellow gold, others love rose gold or platinum. It got me thinking about what I’d choose if I had to pick."

Bring Up Friends’ or Celebrities’ Rings — Use a friend's engagement or a celebrity proposal to steer the conversation toward engagement rings and marriage. You could say:

"My friend just got engaged, and her ring is gorgeous! I think it’s a cushion-cut diamond set in platinum. Do you think cushion-cut diamonds are timeless?"

"I saw that celebrity X just got engaged with a yellow diamond in a rose gold setting. It got me thinking about how unique engagement rings can be!"

Ask for His Opinion — Get him involved by asking for his thoughts on ring styles, diamond cuts, or gold types. This makes the conversation feel more like shared interest rather than a direct hint. You could say:

"What’s your opinion on white gold vs. yellow gold? Which do you think would look better as an engagement ring?"

"I’m curious, if you were picking out a diamond, would you focus more on size or sparkle?"

Transition to Engagement — After sharing interesting facts and opinions, it can smoothly lead to a conversation about the future, like:

"It’s interesting learning about this stuff, and it makes me think about what kind of engagement ring I'd love someday."

"Talking about diamonds and rings has got me excited for when we’re ready to make that step."

Why It Works:

Casual and Non-Pressuring: Discussing diamonds and gold as a subject of interest keeps the conversation light and non-pressuring.

Builds Engagement Interest: Sharing knowledge shows that you’re engaged with the idea of engagement, but it allows the topic to unfold naturally.

Opens Dialogue: Once you’ve introduced the topic, it opens the door for deeper discussions about your relationship, future, and readiness for engagement.

By making it fun and informative, this approach allows you to express your feelings about engagement without it feeling forced.

These hints allow you to share your tastes and preferences without being overly direct, giving him the opportunity to surprise you with the perfect engagement ring.

The landscape of love and commitment is ever-evolving, and in 2025, we're witnessing a significant shift in how couples choose to symbolise their enduring bond: the rise of bespoke engagement rings. In a world saturated with fast fashion and mass-produced goods, there's a growing desire for something more meaningful, something intentionally designed and crafted by skilled artisans. Couples are seeking tangible representations of their unique stories, opting for rings that resonate with personal significance rather than fleeting trends.

At Morgan & Co, nestled in the heart of the Sunshine Coast, we've experienced this profound change firsthand. More than ever, couples are choosing to embark on a collaborative journey with us, sitting down face-to-face in our dedicated Buderim studio to design an engagement ring that truly feels like their own – a piece destined to become a cherished heirloom. Our by-appointment-only approach isn't just about exclusivity; it's about fostering a private, intimate, and entirely personalised experience, built around the individual nuances of each relationship.

A Ring That Tells Your Story:

The foundation of every love story is its uniqueness. No two paths to "forever" are identical, so why should the symbol of that commitment be any different? Our discerning clients in 2025 aren't captivated by what's currently in vogue; they seek a tangible expression of their shared journey, a piece that authentically reflects their individual styles, deeply held values, and the bright future they envision together.

From the very first consultation in our Buderim studio, every facet of your engagement ring is thoughtfully considered and meticulously designed with intention. You'll have the invaluable opportunity to work directly with our co-founders, the heart and soul of Morgan & Co. Drawing upon our team's collective design expertise and an unwavering commitment to detail, we'll guide you through every step of the creative process.

We consider your style, career, day-to-day and hobbies when helping you design your ring. We want it to be a practical piece, that will stand the test of time and suit your daily life and rituals.

The result is jewellery that transcends the mere sparkle of diamonds. It's about weaving your narrative into a tangible form, creating a piece that feels intrinsically you. View our collection of custom engagement rings.

Designed with Purpose. Made by Hand.

In an era dominated by mass production and automated processes, the value of true craftsmanship shines brighter than ever. At Morgan & Co, we believe that the human touch imbues each piece with a soul and a story. Every engagement ring that leaves our Buderim studio is brought to life by real jewellers – highly skilled artisans who possess an intimate understanding of precision, balance, and enduring beauty.

As we look ahead to 2025, a fascinating blend of classic elegance and contemporary innovation is set to define the engagement ring landscape. 2025 is all about elongated cuts that radiate brilliance and offer a unique visual impact. Let's dive into the top trends that will be gracing fingers and capturing hearts.

The Diamond Cuts Taking Centre Stage 

1. Emerald Cut Diamond 

The emerald cut's regal elegance is undeniable. Its clean lines and step-cut facets create a sophisticated, vintage-inspired look. In 2025, we'll see this cut paired with modern settings, like sleek bezels and unexpected side stone arrangements, to create a captivating fusion of old and new.

2. Radiant Cut Diamond

The radiant cut, with its brilliant facets, offers exceptional sparkle and versatility. Its ability to blend the elegance of an emerald cut with the brilliance of a round cut makes it a popular choice. In 2025, expect to see radiant cuts in bold settings that highlight their intense fire or in a simple and sleek four claw setting.

3. Marquise Cut Diamond

The marquise cut, with its elongated, pointed shape, creates a dramatic and flattering look. Its ability to make fingers appear longer and slimmer adds to its appeal. In 2025, marquise cuts will be reimagined with modern twists, such as east-west settings and chunky band designs.

4. Oval Cut Diamond

The oval cut's soft, rounded shape and brilliant sparkle make it a timeless favourite. Its versatility allows it to be paired with various settings, from classic solitaires to three stone oval trilogy. In 2025, look for oval cuts set in chunky bands and curved designs as well as set east to west in a claw setting.

5. Elongated Cushion Cut

The cushion cut, known for its soft, pillow-like shape, is experiencing a resurgence in its elongated form. This cut offers a romantic, vintage-inspired look with a touch of modern flair. In 2025, elongated cushion cuts will be showcased in delicate, feminine settings. 

Settings That Make a Statement

1. East-West Settings

Setting diamonds horizontally, rather than vertically, creates a unique and contemporary look. This trend is particularly popular with emerald and marquise cuts, adding a modern twist to classic designs.

2. Chunky Bands

Bold, chunky bands are making a statement in 2025, adding a touch of modern drama to engagement rings. These bands create a substantial look and feel, balancing the delicate sparkle of the diamond.

3. Curved Bands

Curved bands offer a soft, feminine look, adding a touch of elegance to any setting. These bands can be designed to complement the shape of the diamond, creating a harmonious and cohesive design.

4. Off-Set Claws

Off set claws bring an asymmetrical feel to the ring, and give a very modern and artistic feel to the ring. Off-set claws mean the claw placement is north/south/east/west as opposed to the usual four corners of a diamond. 

Engagement Ring Bands: Comfort and Style Combined

1. Classic Half Round

The classic half-round band remains a popular choice for its comfort and timeless appeal. Its smooth, rounded shape ensures a comfortable fit, making it ideal for everyday wear.

2. Flat Band

Flat bands offer a sleek, modern look, perfect for those seeking a minimalist design. Their clean lines and understated elegance make them a versatile choice for any style.

3. Curved Bands With a Chunky Feel

This style of band offers a unique combination of elegance and boldness. The curves add a feminine touch, while the chunky feel creates a statement-making look.

The Enduring Appeal of Yellow Gold

Yellow Gold's Golden Reign

While platinum and white gold remain popular, yellow gold continues to dominate the engagement ring scene in 2025. Its warm, rich hue evokes a sense of timeless elegance and complements a wide range of diamond cuts and settings. Yellow gold is a classic choice that will never go out of style.

There's a certain magic that happens when contrasting elements collide. It's in the unexpected pairings, the deliberate imperfections, and the raw beauty that evokes a powerful emotion. Our latest editorial photoshoot, set against the captivating backdrop of Goodwater Ridge in Maleny, explores this concept in a truly stunning way. It's a study in contrasts: the undone meets the refined, the dramatic meets the ethereal, and every detail lingers like a whispered moment. This captivating vision was brought to life by a collective of visionaries, directed by the visionary Amy Wren of Lovers by AVW, whose artistic direction and passion were instrumental in crafting this masterpiece.

The Visionary: Amy Wren and the Art of Storytelling

This editorial shoot was a testament to the power of creative collaboration, and at its heart was the visionary photographer, Amy Wren of Lovers by AVW. Amy's ability to weave a narrative through her lens is truly remarkable. As a photographer, Amy is a "mother, lover and a creative soul with a love for romance." Her passion for capturing the unabashed real connections between people is evident in her work. She believes in the power of "true moments," even the smallest ones, and her ability to freeze time and hand them onto you to be remembered forever is a gift. Amy's artistic direction was the driving force behind this shoot, bringing together a team of talented vendors to execute her unique vision.

The Setting: Mediterranean Dreams in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland

Goodwater Ridge, with its textured ruins and sun-kissed Mediterranean tones, provided the perfect canvas for our vision of modern romance. The location itself added a layer of depth and history, creating a unique atmosphere that felt both timeless and contemporary. The raw spaces, bathed in soft, filtered light, allowed the interplay of shadows to become a key element, adding an intimate and cinematic quality to each shot.

A Symphony of Talent: Showcasing the Vendors

This shoot was more than just creating beautiful images; it was about evoking emotion, and that was only possible through the incredible talent of the vendors involved.

Photography: Lovers by AVW 

Amy Wren, the creative force behind Lovers by AVW, brought her unique perspective and artistic vision to this shoot. As a photographer, Amy is a "mother, lover and a creative soul with a love for romance." Her passion for capturing the unabashed real connections between people is evident in her work. She believes in the power of "true moments," even the smallest ones, and her ability to freeze time and hand them onto you to be remembered forever is a gift. Her lens captured the intimacy and depth of emotion in each frame.

The gown drapes with an air of nonchalance, its billowing sleeves falling softly, as if by accident. There's a sense of ease and grace, yet also an underlying strength in the design. Paired with carefully selected Morgan & Co. diamonds, the look achieves a seamless blend of strength and softness. The diamonds, chosen for their brilliance and unique character, added a touch of refined luxury that complemented the gown's effortless beauty.

From a chance meeting 14 years ago to a serendipitous match on Hinge, their journey led to a breathtaking proposal and a bespoke engagement ring that perfectly captured their unique romance. We asked the happy couple all about their special moment, the creation of their dream ring, and their experience with Morgan & Co.

The Interview 

How did you and your fiancé meet?

"Technically 14 years ago at a house party! But then we had nothing to do with each other for 12 years and then matched on Hinge!"

Tell us a little bit about your proposal.

"Dan took me for a walk along Kangaroo Point right at sunset. He had photos of our entire relationship journey pinned to trees, and had taken the time to write about our story on the back of each photo! Then he had our songs playing and he proposed right in front of the water with the gorgeous city skyline in the background! Then we had a picnic and watched the sun set!"

How did you feel when you saw your ring for the first time?

"I AM OBSESSED! I didn't think it was possible to be so happy with a ring, it is literally perfect!"

Tell us about your ring and your journey of creating it.

"We went and looked at rings last year, and I described the cut and style I wanted, then left it up to him!"

How did you partner find his experience at Morgan & Co?

"Dan raves about you guys! We are coming back for our wedding bands, and I can't wait to meet everyone!"

It was an honour 

It's always a joy to be a part of such a beautiful love story. Creating a ring that not only meets but exceeds our clients' expectations is what we strive for at Morgan & Co. We're thrilled that Dan and his fiancé are so happy with their bespoke piece and we are so excited to see them again when they come back to create their wedding bands. Their story reminds us that love can find its way back, and that every detail, from the proposal to the ring, should be as special and unique as the couple themselves. We wish them a lifetime of happiness and look forward to being a part of their wedding journey.

Dan's Kind Words 

"If you looking For a high quality, professional jeweller offering a boutique Service then look no further! Morgan was absolutely incredible throughout the whole process. She was warm, friendly and explained every step of the process thoroughly to help me design and exquisite engagement ring for my partner.

We’re now engaged and we are both over the moon with the quality of the Design and the materials used. We’ve had so much amazing feedback from friends and family regarding the design of the ring and will definitely be using Morgan and co-for the wedding. Thank you so much, Morgan!"

What are Old Mine Cut Diamonds? 

Morgan & Co love sourcing unique stones and the trend for 2025 is the resurgence of Old mine cut diamonds. So what are they?  

Old mine cut diamonds are antique diamonds that were popular from the 18th century through the early 20th century, especially during the Georgian and Victorian eras. They are considered the predecessor to modern brilliant-cut diamonds and have unique characteristics that make them highly sought after by collectors and vintage jewellery enthusiasts. Here’s what sets old mine cut diamonds apart:

Lets look at what makes an old mine cut diamond so special. 

1. Shape

• Old mine cut diamonds have a cushion-like shape, often described as squarish or slightly rectangular with rounded edges. This gives them a softer, less geometric appearance compared to modern cuts.

2. Faceting and Sparkle

• These diamonds typically have 58 facets, similar to modern round brilliant cuts, but they are arranged differently. Old mine cuts tend to have larger facets and a smaller table (the flat top surface), which results in a more subtle, almost “glowing” type of sparkle. They were cut by hand and designed to catch light from candlelight rather than electric light.

3. High Crown and Deep Pavilion

• Old mine cuts often feature a high crown (the top part of the diamond above the girdle) and a deep pavilion (the lower part of the diamond). This creates a chunkier profile compared to modern cuts and gives the diamond a unique depth.

4. Off-Center Culet

• These diamonds usually have a visible culet (the small flat facet at the bottom of the diamond), which is often larger than modern diamonds and sometimes slightly off-center due to the cutting techniques of the time.

5. Hand-Cut Charm

• Since old mine cut diamonds were cut by hand, no two are exactly alike. This makes them charming and one-of-a-kind, with slight imperfections that add character.

• age and the craftsmanship involved in cutting them add to their value and appeal.

7. Origin of the Name

• The term "old mine cut" refers to diamonds that were mined from the original diamond mines in India and Brazil before more modern cuts emerged. The name “mine” comes from the fact that they were cut near the diamond mines.

8. Less Light Performance Compared to Modern Cuts

• Because of the technology and techniques available at the time, old mine cut diamonds don’t have the same level of brilliance (light return) as modern diamonds. However, their more subdued, romantic glow is cherished by those who appreciate vintage diamonds.

If you're drawn to the antique, romantic feel of old mine cut diamonds, Morgan & Co Jewellery may have some beautiful options in their vintage collections!

How much do old mine cut diamonds cost? 

Old mine cut diamonds can sometimes be less expensive than modern cut diamonds, but this depends on several factors, such as their size, quality, and rarity. Here’s why:

1. Less Precision in Cutting

• Old mine cut diamonds are less precisely cut than modern brilliant-cut diamonds. Their facets and symmetry are not as refined due to the hand-cutting techniques of the time. Because they don’t reflect light as efficiently as modern diamonds, they can be valued lower from a purely "light performance" standpoint.

2. Rarity and Demand

• However, because old mine cut diamonds are antique and rare, they can also command higher prices, especially for those who appreciate vintage jewelry or desire a unique, one-of-a-kind stone. If you're looking for a truly antique diamond from a specific era (Georgian, Victorian, etc.), the rarity can drive up the cost.

3. Quality and Condition

• Like any diamond, the value of an old mine cut depends on the 4Cs: carat, cut, clarity, and colour. High-quality, well-preserved old mine cut diamonds, especially those with excellent clarity and colour, can be more expensive than modern diamonds of similar size and quality. Here at Morgan & Co Jewellery, Sunshine Coast, we are experts in sourcing such a special diamond within your budget. 
  

5. Supply vs. Demand

• The supply of old mine cut diamonds is limited since they are no longer being produced. This limited availability can sometimes make them more expensive, especially if they are in good condition or set in a desirable antique piece of jewellery.

Overall, old mine cut diamonds can be either more affordable or more expensive than modern cuts, depending on factors like condition, quality, rarity, and the market you're buying from. If you're looking for a unique, vintage look, Morgan & Co Jewellery could have some excellent options at competitive prices.

Can you buy Lab grown old mine cut diamonds? 

No, you cannot buy old mine cut lab-grown diamonds in the traditional sense. The old mine cut refers specifically to diamonds that were cut by hand during the 18th and 19th centuries, long before lab-grown diamonds existed. However, there are some things to consider:

1. Lab-Grown Diamonds with Old Mine Cut Style

• Although you can't buy genuine antique old mine cut lab-grown diamonds, lab-grown diamonds can be cut into an old mine cut style. Morgan & Co Jewellery  specialise in replicating vintage cuts like the old mine cut, but using modern, lab-grown diamonds. This allows our clients to get the antique aesthetic with a lab-created stone.

2. Advantages of Lab-Grown Old Mine Cuts

• Affordability: Lab-grown diamonds are typically less expensive than natural diamonds, so you could get an old mine cut style at a more affordable price.

• Ethical and Sustainable: Lab-grown diamonds are a more eco-friendly and ethically sourced alternative to natural diamonds, which may appeal to buyers who want a vintage look but with a modern, sustainable approach.

• Exact vintage look you want without having to source a natural diamond.

If you’re looking for the aesthetic of an old mine cut combined with the advantages of a lab-grown diamond, Morgan & Co Jewellery might offer custom design services or be able to source lab-grown diamonds in that specific cut style. Book your complimentary consultation now. 

Here at Morgan & Co Jewellery we have clients come to us to upgrade their engagement rings for various reasons. Reasons that relate to personal milestones, their changes in design preferences, or they are now more  financially situated to upgrade their ring. 

Here are some common reasons:

1. Milestones and Anniversaries: Some couples upgrade their rings to celebrate significant anniversaries or milestones in their relationship, such as a 5th, 10th or 25th wedding anniversary.
   

2. Financial Improvement: When couples get engaged, they may not have had the financial means to purchase the ring they truly wanted. Later on, when they are more financially secure, they may upgrade to a more expensive or elaborate ring.
   

3. Changing Styles: Over time, tastes and fashion trends change. A person might want a ring that better reflects their current style or preferences, such as switching from a traditional solitaire to a more unique or modern design.
   

4. Desire for a Larger or Better Quality Stone: Some upgrade to a larger diamond or a higher quality gemstone, especially if they want a ring with more sparkle or a different cut, colour, clarity, or carat size.
   

5. Sentimental Reasons: In some cases, couples upgrade their rings to incorporate meaningful elements, such as adding family heirloom diamonds or stones that have special significance.
   

6. Damage or Wear and Tear: Engagement rings can wear down over time. Some people upgrade their rings if the original one is damaged, worn, or in need of significant repairs.
   

7. Customising or Modernising the Ring: People may upgrade their engagement rings to personalise them, add new settings, or incorporate newer designs or features, such as halo settings or different metals (platinum, rose gold, etc.).

Should I feel bad about wanting my engagement ring remodelled? 

It’s completely normal to feel a mix of emotions about upgrading your engagement ring, but you shouldn’t feel bad about wanting to do so! Here’s why:

1. Personal Evolution

• Your tastes change over time: When you first got engaged, you may have had different preferences or financial circumstances. Upgrading your ring doesn’t diminish the original meaning behind it—it’s just an opportunity to reflect your current style and circumstances.

2. Celebrating Growth

• Upgrading your ring can symbolise how far you and your partner have come, both as a couple and in life. Whether it’s for an anniversary, a milestone, or simply because you’re now able to get the ring you’ve always dreamed of, it’s a celebration of your journey together.

3. Sentimental Value Remains

• The emotional connection to your original ring won’t be lost with an upgrade. Many people choose to incorporate elements from their first ring into the new one, like using the same stone or keeping the band. This way, the sentiment remains while still getting a refreshed look.

4. It’s About What Makes You Happy

• Your engagement ring is something you wear every day, so it’s important that it makes you feel happy and confident. If you feel that upgrading will bring more joy or better reflect who you are now, there’s nothing wrong with that decision.

5. Your Partner’s Support

• If you and your partner are on the same page about the upgrade, that’s all that matters. Many partners are happy to upgrade the ring as a way to give you something they couldn’t afford before or to celebrate a special occasion.

6. It’s Common

• Many couples upgrade their rings at different points in their relationship. You’re not alone in wanting to refresh or improve your ring, and it’s a perfectly valid decision!

Ultimately, your engagement ring is a symbol of love and commitment, and that meaning won’t change just because the ring does. As long as you and your partner are happy with the decision, there’s no reason to feel bad about upgrading your ring.

Morgan & Co Jewellery could help you with the process, making sure that whatever choice you make feels special and true to your relationship! Book your remodel consultation with our Buderim team.

You may have noticed a shift in the jewellery world lately. The price of gold has surged, climbing over 40% in the past year alone. This isn't just a fleeting fluctuation; it's a significant market trend that impacts everyone, from retailers to those dreaming of their perfect engagement ring. At Morgan & Co., we believe in empowering our clients with knowledge, so let's delve into the key factors driving this gold price hike and how we can help you navigate it.

Why the Golden Surge?

1. Economic Uncertainty:

   • Gold has always been a safe haven during financial storms. Current inflationary pressures, geopolitical tensions, and fluctuating currencies have led to a surge in gold investment.
   • Additionally, US policy changes and tariffs have weakened the dollar, indirectly pushing gold prices higher.
     
     

2. Supply Chain Disruptions:

   • Mining operations face ongoing challenges, including labor shortages and logistical hurdles, reducing the gold supply and driving up prices.
     
     

3. Central Bank Demand:

   • Central banks, notably in China and Russia, are strategically increasing their gold reserves, limiting global availability and adding to the price pressure.
     
     

4. Weakening US Dollar:

   • Since gold is priced in USD, a weaker dollar translates to higher gold prices in international markets.

Navigating the Golden Landscape with Morgan & Co

We understand that these market shifts can be daunting, especially when planning a significant purchase like an engagement ring. At Morgan & Co., we're committed to transparency and providing exceptional value. Here's how we help you achieve your dream ring without compromising on quality:

• Best Price, From the Start: We believe in honest pricing, offering the best possible value from the very beginning. No hidden fees or inflated costs.
• Budget-Conscious Design: We work closely with you to understand your budget and design preferences. If a three-stone ring pushes you past your comfort zone, we might suggest a stunning solitaire that maximises brilliance within your price range.
• Expert Stone Sourcing: Our extensive network allows us to source diamonds and coloured stones that meet your specific requirements and budget. We'll guide you on how to best allocate your resources, ensuring you get the most sparkle for your investment.
• Personalised, Guided Journey: We offer a truly bespoke experience, taking you on a personalised journey tailored to your needs. This means attentive listening, expert advice, and a ring that perfectly reflects your unique love story.

How We Help You Make Smart Choices:

• Understanding the Market: We keep you informed about current gold prices and market trends, so you can make informed decisions.
• Alternative Options: We explore various options, such as using different gold carats or alternative gemstones, to help you stay within your budget.
• Prioritising Quality: We never compromise on quality. Even when working within a budget, we ensure your ring is crafted with exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Why the Setting Matters Just as Much as the Stone

While the diamond undeniably takes centre stage, the engagement ring setting is equally crucial for both the stone's brilliance and the ring's longevity. Think of it as the foundation upon which your precious gem rests. The dimensions and design of the gold, the precision of the craftsmanship, and the specific alloys used to create the gold are all vital considerations. A well-crafted setting not only enhances the diamond's sparkle by allowing optimal light reflection but also ensures the ring's durability for years to come. The right setting provides security, comfort, and aesthetic balance, transforming a beautiful stone into a truly breathtaking piece of jewellery.

Your Dream Ring, Within Reach

Despite the rising gold prices, your dream engagement ring is still achievable. At Morgan & Co., we're dedicated to helping you create a ring that's not only beautiful but also within your budget. Our personalised service, expert guidance, and commitment to transparency ensure you'll have a memorable and stress-free experience.
