Design
Custom jewellery design covers everything from concept to finished piece. Many jewellers can guide you through stone and metal options, then create made-to-order designs to suit your style and budget.
George William Catanach founded the Catanach’s brand in Melbourne 140 years ago, with the belief that quality and beauty must go hand in hand when crafting a piece of fine jewellery. His legacy has continued for over five generations, with Amanda and David Catanach now serving as the current custodians of this iconic Melbourne jewellery house.
Catanach’s is located in one of Melbourne’s prime antique precincts. High Street Armadale, long associated with high-end retail, is the perfect Melbourne location for a jewellery store of Catanach’s calibre. We boast the best range of coloured stones in the country and are renowned for sourcing the finest stones worldwide for our customers.
Our collection also includes a wide array of lustrous Australian pearls, born in the clean turquoise waters of Broome, Western Australia. We have strong links with this outback town, offering a vast choice of cultured and Keshi pearls.
At Catanach’s Jewellers, we are proud makers of the Caulfield Cup and have a long-standing association with the Melbourne Racing Club, both as a sponsor and trophy maker. We also support many charity race days, both metropolitan and country.
Our philosophy is to create your dream, leaving no stone unturned to acquire or create the perfect piece, handmade by our jewellers to be uniquely yours. We have a spectacular selection of fine diamonds, offering the beauty and gentle brilliance of old-cut diamonds and a wide and varied choice of modern and fancy-cut stones, coloured diamonds, and a wonderful range of gemstones.
Visit us at Catanach’s to experience the enduring legacy of quality and beauty in fine jewellery. We look forward to helping you find or create a piece that you will treasure for a lifetime.

An online shop lets you browse and purchase remotely, often with delivery Australia-wide. Before buying, check sizing guidance, delivery timeframes, returns, warranties and aftercare.
Repairs can include resizing, clasp replacement, chain repairs, polishing, re-stringing and stone re-setting. Ask about turnaround time and whether repair work comes with a service warranty.
In-store shopping is ideal if you want to see pieces in person and compare options with guidance. Many jewellers can advise on fit, styling, care, and gift ideas while you browse.
Jewellery valuations provide written documentation for insurance, resale or estate purposes. A valuation records materials, gemstone details, condition and an assessed value using current market factors.
