    What can I say! The best experience with Chris and Chris getting our forever rings. Firstly, I cried when I tried my Neon Pool on for the first time so that should be a good indicator. The Corky Team were so diligent in making sure our rings were perfect for us and were as excited about our rings as we were! Now after getting to wear them all the time I can safely say we both fall more in love with these beautiful pieces of art every day!!

    I cannot express my gratitude enough to the amazing team at Corky. A journey together to rebuild a ring my father gave me many years ago that I lost was a collaborative process of listening, creativity, really caring and support. From a grainy photo, Chris was so intent on ensuring the details of the ring were correct. To Eva who with a sketch from Chris worked so hard over several consultations and three wax carvings to create my ring. Eva wove her creative magic and built a ring so close to the original that I am honoured and proud to wear. To Chris, Chris and Eva - thank you! I am truly grateful and thankful I found you for this journey. You are the best.

    I have been shopping at Corky Saint Clair since it first opened and have had nothing but amazing experiences at the uniquely Melbourne jewellery institution. Nothing beats discovering a new amazing piece to wear that you know will last for many years to come. I have had my anatomical heart necklace for so long that the photo of the lover inside has changed but the love for the necklace remains the same. Chris Brill is a talented jewellery designer and a true icon of the Melbourne creative world. I can't wait to check out his new space and discover more wonders that I will cherish forever.

    I cannot recommend Chris from Corky Saint Clair enough! We used his services to design and build our dream engagement ring. Chris was attentive, helpful and incredibly quick to respond. He guided us through the whole process with incredible expertise and the end product is phenomenal. Chris stayed in contact with us throughout the whole build - provided multiple photographic updates on the progress of the ring and made us feel super comfortable trusting him with the process. 10/10 will recommend Corky Saint Clair to anyone who asks!

    Where do I even start? Chris is exceptionally talented, caring and passionate; a true artist, with vision and style without boundaries. He forged a tangible item from my deepest hopes and dreams. That is not hyperbole - I truly came to him with the concept of a ring that lived only in my head and he made it a reality. He and Chris both were personable, professional and helpful, and my partner and I could not have imagined a better experience. It is an honour. I have and will continue to recommend Corky Saint Clair to anyone with a heartbeat and a penchant for quality jewellery made with love.

    I cannot recommend Corky Saint Clair enough. I have been buying small pieces for a few years now for presents and for myself when I can and their creativity, quality, price, uniqueness and fantastic service is 5 stars. Chris recently fixed a pendant chain I broke just after I purchased it and did it with such speed, generosity and grace that I was genuinely moved. I will keep checking in with Corky Saint Clair for their special pieces of jewelry art for as long as they stay open. I encourage anyone reading this to please support this local company because they’re brilliant and you won’t be disappointed and nor will anyone lucky enough to be on the receiving end of a present from here! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

    I can't recommend Corky Saint Clair highly enough. I'd never had rings designed and made before, and Chris and Chris walked us through every step with patience and excellent design advice. Their goldsmith Eva explained the pros and cons of our ideas, and they provided sketches and updates along the way. My partner and I are so happy with our rings, they are more beautiful than we imagined they would be. I will definitely work with them again, they're wonderful people.

    Chris and Chris provided amazing service when designing my ring set. Chris was informative and so helpful with creating my vision (which was a little more than a few saved Instagram posts). My rings are absolutely beautiful and I love wearing them.

  • 5/5 Megan R. 1 year ago on Google
    So thankful to have stumbled across Corky Saint Clair to purchase some earrings. Amazing service and such an approachable team - will certainly consult again for any future investment pieces of jewellery.

    Chris was so welcoming and the rings created by Corky Saint Clair are so unique and beautiful. So glad to support independent jewellers

  • 5/5 Jessica H. 1 year ago on Google
    Corky Saint Clair are the absolute best. I will never get jewelry from anyone else. The whole team are so helpful! We came in frantically a week before our wedding with no wedding bands. They took full control and whipped up a rough design of a gold band with small diamonds and it was EXACTLY what I wanted. It is so perfect and so me. Absolute legends. You will never regret going through Corky!

    Amazing work and service. We are so happy with my partners wedding band. Thanks Chris!

    My husband Michael and I decided to get married within a month and both Chris’ were so kind and talented in making our unique and beautiful rings in this time frame. We are so happy with them and will definitely be back in the future for an eternity/wedding band. Thank you. 🥰😍❤️💍

  • 5/5 Michael W. 1 year ago on Google
    Great selection. Excellent service. Fantastic value. We went with Corky St Clair for our wedding rings after much shopping around. Chris and Chris really looked after us, and helped us decide on rings we loved. It was also a fast turnaround compared to other places to get the rings made. The rings were stunning when we picked them up. I would 100% recommend getting rings from here. We couldn't be happier with the whole process and will be returning in future! Thanks Chris & Chris! *Photo by Finder Seeker Photography

    I've had several rings and necklaces custom made here and they are all beautiful and high quality. The owners are creative and were able to put what I wanted into physical form. The jewellery they create is unique and elegant even on my massive hands! They are the only place I now go to for fine jewellery.

  • 5/5 Jess M. 1 year ago on Google
    My lovely friend bought a pendant for my young daughter, as a birthday gift while we couldn’t see each other during the pandemic. It’s such a beautiful golden citrine in a simple setting, that she’ll be able to wear forever. My friend has always enthused about this small business, how kind and helpful they are and what gorgeous work they do. I can’t wait to visit when I next come to Melbourne!

  • 5/5 L S. 1 year ago on Google
    I have been buying jewellery from the team at Corky St Clair for 5 years now and I’ve never failed to find the perfect gift, either for a friend or myself! I will treasure the pieces symbolizing my children as well as my eternity ring forever. The pieces are unique and thoughtful and it feels good supporting an amazing local designer.

  • 5/5 Claire Y. 2 years ago on Google
    Impressive range of Australian Sapphires. Great service and super helpful staff. We were surprised how easy it was to get the perfect ring.

  • 5/5 Donovan L. 2 years ago on Google
    Couldn't be happier with our engagement ring. The team at Corky were professional and friendly and seemed to really want the best for us. My partner gets heaps of compliments on her ring.

  • 5/5 Trent P. 3 years ago on Google
    Corky Saint Clair makes the most amazing jewelry! The piece I bought is exceptionally made and is very tasteful. It is hard to find many jewelry stores around Melbourne that aren't full of corny pieces, so I am glad that I found Corky. Great customer service and a great product, can't recommend higher.

  • 5/5 Lachlan E. 3 years ago on Google
    Lovely little place in the city, and an amazing collection of rings to suit anyone. Chris was awesome at helping us find something unique and special, while meeting our budget as well. Will certainly be back here ☺️

  • 5/5 Hamish B. 3 years ago on Google
    Have been a customer numerous times, bought two rings, bracelets and many gifts. They have all budgets covered and all made very well. Last ring I bought internationally (as moved to NZ) and the service was exceptional. Great communication made the sale so easy. Would buy again with great confidence.

  • 5/5 Kieran H. 3 years ago on Google
    We had our engagement ring made here. They were great through the whole process and really good to work with in designing exactly what we were after. We loved the outcome. Also they had great communication throughout.

  • 5/5 Ryan M. 3 years ago on Google
    I went to Corky Saint Clair for a custom engagement ring and could not be happier! They were amazing to deal with every step of the way. Chris is a guru who helped keep the design personal and unique, all in a fun/relaxed environment. Safe to say the ring turned out incredible and has been a hit! Highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Linda M. 2 years ago on Google
    Picked up my ring today and I love it ! Something very different to what I had originally thought I wanted but so glad that Chris took the time to talk me through other possibilities. So thanks so much to Chris and Chris for their patience in helping me to decide on this very special ring. Out with the old and in with the new ! Will definitely be going back to Corky St Clair for my next jewellery project !

    When I was 21 I got money for my birthday and came across Corky Saint Clair in the flinders st subway, it was love at first sight. Every year since then I choose a piece (or two or three!) to purchase and its my most special tradition! Everything made by Corky is beautifully handmade and just makes my heart happy. Their style is quirky, sweet and often a little bit cheeky! Even if your not in the market for some new jewels its a beautiful place to visit, and just gush over their whimsical shop. Prepare to be transported to a beautiful place!

    Been coming here for nearly 10 years, and i am consistently impressed. Super happy with everything I've bought from here, they are prepared and excited to work with you to give you something you'll really love. I'm thrilled with the ring they designed for me recently, with a brilliant and dark Australian sapphire as the stone. Can't recommend them enough.

  • 5/5 Alana S. 8 months ago on Google • 1 review
    Exquisite work, but also fantastic customer service. I recently got the wrong necklace sent after a presumably busy sale (who wouldn't jump on a sale of lovely Corky wears?!). When enquiring as to if there were any of the necklace I ordered left, to hopefully set up a swap, Chris promptly replied. Not only has the necklace I ordered been sent out, but Chris kindly gifted me the wrongly sent necklace. I greatly appreciate this excellent customer service. I will 100% be a return customer, and recommend others support this lovely business.
