A Legacy of Craftsmanship Meets the Beauty of Natural Spinel

by AM Mitchell

For generations, Curtis Australia has been synonymous with artistry, precision, and a dedication to crafting the extraordinary. From hand-made watches to internationally acclaimed pens and world-class original jewellery, our heritage of fine craftsmanship dates back to the 1890s. Each creation is a testament to our philosophy: that true luxury is in the details, in the story, and in the mastery of skill that turns raw materials into enduring beauty.

Glenn Curtis, the visionary head designer, has long been recognized for his expertise in fine jewellery. As the only Australian invited to judge an international diamond jewellery design competition in New York, his eye for excellence is revered worldwide. It is this level of discernment that extends to our passion with exquisite natural spinel gemstones.

Sourced directly from a prestigious mine in Sri Lanka, these breathtaking gems come in a kaleidoscope of colors, from radiant reds to lush greens and ethereal mauves. Their brilliance, rarity, and natural vibrancy make them a unique choice for those seeking something beyond the traditional.

Curtis Australia enjoys a direct relationship with the mine owner, ensuring that each spinel is of the finest quality—ethically sourced and selected for its unrivaled beauty.

Clients who step into our studio in Bairnsdale, Victoria, enter a world where design dreams come to life. Here, among watchmakers and master jewellers, they can experience the magic of spinel firsthand—selecting their own gemstones and collaborating on bespoke creations.

Whether it's a striking combination of spinel hues or an elegant design accented with diamond highlights, each piece is crafted to be as individual as its wearer.

At Curtis Australia, craftsmanship isn't just about technique; it's about passion, heritage, and the pursuit of perfection.

And now, with natural spinel taking center stage, we invite you to discover the rare and radiant beauty of these gemstones—brought to life in jewellery that tells a story as rich as its history. www.curtisaustralia.com
