"I am so grateful for the experience that I had with Morgan & Co. My fiancé proposed to me with a beautiful diamond that Morgan and Laura assisted him in choosing. I was then able to design the engagement ring and wedding band of my dreams under the supervision of a thoughtful, understanding and professional team. They not only look beautiful, but also fit my hand and personality. Thank you ladies, you made me feel so special and welcome throughout the whole process.”
"Morgan & Co were absolutely exceptional! After meeting with other stores around the Sunshine Coast and still feeling unsure, Morgan & Laura were the perfect fit for a guy planning to propose. They were very approachable, educated me from start to finish about not only diamonds but also planning a smooth proposal, were always contactable, even after hours & on weekends, & ultimately ensured my fiancée received the perfect ring. Look no further than Morgan & Co."
"I had the most beautiful engagement ring made with Morgan & Co. I knew very little about diamonds or rings & both Morgan and Laura were so friendly & helpful with helping me understand how to create a beautiful ring for my fiancé. They easily accommodated to my desired price point to produce a ring that my fiancé absolutely adores. I definitely recommend going to visit Morgan & Co!"

During your in-person, over-the-phone or video consultation we’ll explore and capture your design vision. This time will also be used to show you diamonds or coloured gemstones in your desired shape and within your price point.
With a complete understanding of your dream ring, we will source you the highest quality diamond, or coloured gemstone from our global network of ethically sourced lab-grown and natural diamonds. We will provide a quote within your budget.
We'll work with you until you're completely satisfied with the final design, regardless of the number of changes needed, before moving forward to production. You will be provided with a professional drawing of your ring that outlines the specifications.
Your engagement ring will be manufactured in Australia by the most skilled craftsmen in the industry. This involves casting, surface preparation, metal forming and soldering. Then your stone/s will be set and the ring buffed and polished to perfection.
Your ring will go through a thorough quality assurance check and final clean to make sure it is ready for pickup or delivery. You will be provided with formal documentation, including insurance replacement information and diamond certification.
Once a relationship is created, the impression we leave behind will be as timeless as the piece we create for you. We are meticulous in our design and creation processes, and have a relentless passion for elegance and quality, which ensures each piece is of the highest standard.
Together with our clients, we are not just creating jewellery, we are creating sparkling moments for a better tomorrow - bringing together loved ones, reconnecting with those we have lost, making something fresh from newly discovered forgotten treasures.
The only thing more important to us than the exquisite jewellery we create is the relationship we develop with each of our clients to make your special occasion unforgettable.
Designing a custom engagement ring involves several steps. First, you can book a free consultation to discuss your ideas, preferences, and budget with us. We will guide you through selecting the perfect diamond or gemstone, choosing a metal for the band, and deciding on a design style. We will then create sketches or 3D models for your approval before crafting your custom engagement ring.
When picking an engagement ring, consider your partner’s style, the type of metal they prefer, and the shape and quality of the diamond or gemstone. It's important to set a budget and educate yourself on the 4 Cs of diamonds: cut, colour, clarity and carat weight. You can book a free consultation with us to try on different styles. For men ready to propose, we can lend you a stunt ring to propose with, and you and your partner can come in together to design her dream engagement ring.
When choosing an engagement ring, consider the 4 Cs of diamonds (cut, colour, clarity and carat weight), the metal type (such as platinum, yellow gold or white gold), the ring style (solitaire, halo, vintage, etc.) and your budget. Also, consider your partner’s lifestyle and personal taste to ensure their custom engagement ring suits them perfectly. Not sure where to start? Book a free consultation, and we are here to walk you through the process.
Popular engagement ring styles include solitaire, halo, three-stone, vintage and pavé settings. Each style offers a unique look, from the classic simplicity of a solitaire to the intricate details of vintage designs. In our Buderim studio, we have a range of engagement ring styles for you to view and try on.
Choosing the right diamond involves considering the 4 Cs: cut (how well the diamond is shaped), colour (the lack of colour in the diamond), clarity (how free the diamond is from imperfections) and carat weight (the size of the diamond). Balance these factors based on what is most important to you and your budget. During your free consultation, we will work with you to understand what’s important to you and how we can design a custom engagement ring within your price point.
A lab-grown diamond, also known as a cultured diamond, is a diamond created in a controlled environment using advanced technological processes that replicate the natural conditions under which diamonds form in the earth's mantle. These diamonds have the same chemical, physical and optical properties as natural diamonds but are produced in a laboratory rather than mined from the earth. Lab-grown diamonds offer ethical sourcing, being conflict-free and produced with transparency. They also have a lower environmental impact and can be more cost-effective, providing consumers with an eco-friendly and socially responsible alternative to mined diamonds.
Yes, lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds. They have the same chemical composition, crystal structure, hardness and brilliance as natural diamonds. The primary difference is their origin: natural diamonds are formed deep within the earth over millions of years, while lab-grown diamonds are created in a matter of weeks or months in a controlled laboratory environment.
Yes, absolutely. We work with both lab-grown diamonds and natural diamonds. It comes down to your personal preference and considers your ethical standpoint and budget. Book a consult with us.
The time frame for creating a custom engagement ring can vary but typically takes between 4 to 8 weeks. This includes the initial consultation with us, design approval and the crafting of your engagement ring. All our custom engagement rings are Australian made, which enables us the ability to fast track your order, should you require it for a certain date.
The amount you should spend on an engagement ring is personal and varies based on your financial situation. Traditionally, it has been suggested to spend about two to three months’ salary, but it’s more important to choose a ring that is meaningful and within your budget. During your consultation, we will ask you questions to uncover what’s important to you, whether that be size, clarity, cut or something else! Being a custom service, we have the ability to work to your budget.
The average cost of a custom engagement ring can range significantly based on the design, materials and diamonds chosen. Typically, custom engagement rings start at around $2,000 and can go upwards of $10,000 or more.
Yes, we love this approach. Proposing with a stunt ring and then involving your partner in the design process of their actual engagement ring is a special experience for both of you. At Morgan and Co, we can lend you a stunt ring to propose with. Please book a free consultation to discuss this.
At Morgan & Co, we love to create timeless engagement rings. When you book a free consultation, we can show you all the classic diamond shapes, and also the more unique diamond shapes like oval or pear, vintage-inspired settings, and mixed metal bands. We can also personalise your engagement ring with an engraving, such as initials or a date or a hidden gemstone in the band.
Yes, we can incorporate your own diamonds or gemstones into a custom engagement ring. This can add sentimental value and potentially reduce the overall cost.
A custom engagement ring is designed specifically for you, allowing for personalised elements and unique designs. A ready-made engagement ring is pre-designed and available for immediate purchase. Custom rings offer more individuality, while ready-made rings are convenient for quick decisions. At Morgan & Co, we specialise in custom engagement rings designed to suit the wearer.

We’re here to answer any questions you have! Each piece we create is Australian made and designed and we offer a lifetime manufacturing warranty on band and setting.
Popular metals for engagement rings include platinum, white gold, yellow gold and rose gold. Platinum is durable and hypoallergenic, while gold comes in various colours and carats, allowing for more design options. We specialise in gold rings, but as a bespoke jeweller we can source and work with all materials. We specialise in gold rings and platinum rings. The gold we use is recycled gold.
Yes, you can choose a coloured gemstone for a custom engagement ring. Options include sapphires, rubies, emeralds, parti sapphires, tourmalines and more. Coloured gemstones can add a unique and personal touch to your engagement ring.
Our process starts with a free consultation to discuss your ideas and budget. Your engagement ring setting is designed specifically for your individually selected diamond or gemstone. Then, we will create sketches or 3D models of your chosen design.

It’s one of the biggest fears many men have when planning a proposal: “What if she doesn’t like the engagement ring?” I understand this can be a stressful thought, but at Morgan & Co, we’re here to make sure that doesn’t happen. Choosing the perfect ring is an art, especially when it comes to something as personal as an engagement ring. There are countless factors to consider—style, diamond shape, and perhaps most importantly, the metal colour.
Book your complementary consultation with our bespoke team.
The metal you choose for the ring is often a crucial detail that can make or break your partner’s reaction. It’s easy to focus on the diamond, but the band’s metal is just as significant, especially to a woman who wears jewellery regularly. The wrong metal colour can clash with her skin tone, the jewellery she already wears, or even the watch she loves. Choosing a metal that feels off can make her feel like you haven’t paid attention to these little details about her, which can be disheartening.
This is where many men find themselves stumped. You might not have noticed what metal she prefers—whether it’s yellow gold, white gold, rose gold, or platinum. Don’t worry, though, because we’ll help you figure this out. At Morgan & Co, we take the time to ask you for photos of your partner to understand her skin tone, what jewellery she wears regularly, and the style she gravitates toward. We’ll guide you through this process so that you feel confident in your decision, but we’ll also keep things as discreet as possible.
Here’s our promise to you: if your partner doesn’t love her engagement ring or isn’t happy with the metal colour, we will remake it, free of charge. We’ve done this before when the metal choice wasn’t quite right or if she decided she wasn’t a fan of certain design elements—like diamonds on the band, for instance. You can feel reassured knowing that we have your back in making sure the ring is absolutely perfect.
To make sure your partner is thrilled with the ring, we take a few steps to get things just right —
Thorough Stalk of Her Social Media: We’ll review any photos of her wearing jewellery to understand her style and preferences.
Ask Lots of Questions: We’ll ask about her current jewellery, what kind of rings she likes, and any comments she’s made about other people’s engagement rings.
Look at Photos of Her Hands: By seeing her hands and fingers, we can recommend the best diamond shapes and styles that will flatter her hands.
Get Family or Friends Involved: If you’re unsure or feeling overwhelmed, we can work with a trusted friend or family member who knows her style well. This can provide invaluable insight into what she will love.
Offer Alternative Proposal Options: If you’re still feeling uncertain, there’s no need to worry. You could propose with a placeholder ring, or simply with the diamond itself, then design the ring together after she says "yes." This takes the pressure off and allows her to have a say in the final design.
Choosing the perfect engagement ring is a big decision, and we understand how important it is to get it right. At Morgan & Co, we take pride in making this process as smooth and thoughtful as possible. With our guidance and commitment to ensuring your partner loves her ring, we promise you’re in safe hands.

In short, no. Buying an engagement ring online comes with many risks that most people don’t realise until it’s too late. I get asked about this a lot, and my answer is always the same: when you’re making such an important and significant purchase, it’s crucial to be able to trust the process and the people behind it.
Book your personalised engagement ring journey with our team at Morgan & Co here.
At Morgan & Co, we believe that buying an engagement ring should be an individualised journey, not a transaction. Many online jewellery retailers focus on quantity rather than quality, and while that might be convenient, it lacks the personal care and craftsmanship that a piece of jewellery of this magnitude deserves. When you shop with us, we guide you through every step—from education to hand-selecting your diamond, to drawing a custom design that is tailored to fit your chosen stone. We believe in creating a product that will last a lifetime, built on trust and integrity.
One of the biggest issues with online engagement ring shopping is that you miss out on understanding the finer details. For example, will your wedding band sit flush against your engagement ring? Online sellers won’t walk you through these considerations. You also have no real way of knowing if the diamond you’re buying is truly what they say it is. Many online companies deal in bulk, meaning their rings are often mass-produced overseas, and the craftsmanship might not be up to the standard you’d expect for something as important as an engagement ring.
What about the setting—the metal that holds your precious stone? The setting is just as important as the diamond or gemstone itself, as it’s what will keep your stone secure for a lifetime. Poorly made settings can lead to loose stones or even damage over time.
At Morgan & Co, we take pride in offering a personalised jewellery service where you know exactly what you're getting. We offer a lifetime warranty on the band and setting because we trust our work, and we’re committed to being there for you throughout the life of your ring. It’s not just about making a sale for us; it’s about building a relationship and ensuring that your engagement ring remains as beautiful and secure as the day you received it.
So if you’re considering purchasing a ring online, I highly recommend seeking a more personalised experience. Read reviews, ask questions, and make sure you’re investing your money in a company that will deliver on quality and be there for you long after the ring is purchased. A custom-made ring with a trusted jeweller like Morgan & Co ensures your ring will not only look stunning but will be crafted to last a lifetime.
We look forward to meeting you in our Buderim studio to design your forever ring. Book your free consultation.
