    Wilson Zou is one of the most wonderful sales representatives I’ve ever come across. His experience and passion for the job and the way he treats his clients was what really helped me make the decision to purchase the most important ring of our lives. Wilson is so knowledgeable around diamonds and engagement rings, he explains it in such details and adds so much more value to the person buying it. My partner and I must have visited the store at least 3 times on long extended appointments, questions galore since we wanted to make sure we were making the right decision. Wilson was so patient every time in answering all our questions and going above and beyond in giving every little detail. We obviously visited multiple other jewellers in Melbourne and none came even as close to how we felt at Paul Bram. Tiffany was a very close second and it was Wilson that made us choose Paul Bram. He even made the ordering and collection process so simple for me. I didn’t want my fiancé to know when I was making the purchase and Wilson is the man to help you work all the surprises with ease. End result: My partner and I can’t stop admiring the brilliance of the diamond and workmanship on the ring! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience, thank you Wilson and Paul Bram for making it simple and effective!

    I recently had my engagement and eternity ring which I purchased from Paul Bram 39 years ago remodeled into one ring and Jane was fantastic in it’s new creation. She has incredible patience and knowledge and has assisted me in choosing 4 more beautiful pieces. My experience from start to finish has been a very pleasant one with Jane and the team at Paul Bram.

    I had the most amazing experience!! My Fiancé and I were recommended Paul Bram by a family friend and we’re not disappointed. Wilson was very friendly, funny and helpful. He listened to my opinions and desired requirements and worked with our budget well, which I found a lot harder at other places when they show you rings way out of your stated price range!! I went in set on a certain style but after trying on an oval shape ring suggested by Wilson my heart exploded and I knew straight away it was the one. After looking at a couple other places it was clear Paul Bram was the place to buy my engagement ring 💍 highly recommend!!

    A big shout out to Wilson from Paulbram for providing us with excellent service from the very start. I approached a-lot of other jewellers including a few big names in the game who were only willing to show what they had in their showroom rather than finding me the stone i wanted. If your very specific with what you want, you need someone like Wilson who has patience and the willingness to look for that piece virtually from all around the world. I appreciate your time, effort and the service that you have provided to us. And what can i say about the craftsmanship. Absolutely gorgeous hand crafted ring with a beautiful centrepiece. The whole process from choosing a diamond and choosing a setting for it has been a beautiful experience. I would highly recommend.

    I purchased an Engagement Ring from Paul Bram, and had the up most pleasure of working with Jane who assisted me in selecting the most exquisite ring. Throughout the whole process from start to finish, Jane was very professional and even called to check in after the proposal to see how things went. Her vast experience and knowledge in diamonds was reassuring and comforting, her customer service was second to none and we can not thank her enough. My fiancé and I are incredibly happy with the quality of the Engagement Ring and will have no hesitations in recommending Jane, and Paul Bram to everyone.

    Elegance and Perfection. Over the last 12 months I have had three rings individually designed and constructed by Paul Bram; an engagement ring and two wedding bands. Throughout the initial process, senior consultant Jane Layton, provided her expert and sophisticated guidance on assisting me in designing the most beautiful, stunning, and timeless engagement ring. The workshop sessions were never rushed and covered multiple options to ensure I was certain I was making a perfect choice. That level of service and extremely high standard of diamonds, and overall product, continued through the wedding band design and selection process. Jane ensured that my wife’s engagement ring and wedding band were in complete unison with each other; the positive comments haven’t stopped. An absolutely beautiful boutique jeweller and a must for engagement rings and wedding bands!!

    My wife and I recently celebrated our 46th wedding anniversary and returned to Paul Bram, where we had originally purchased engagement and wedding rings. My wife chose a beautiful pave ring to complement her eternity ring. Sam was so helpful and made the experience very special. Thank you so much from both of us.

    We visited Paul Bram in search for the perfect 30th wedding anniversary ring, and had awesome Jane assisting us. We couldn’t speak more highly of the incredible experience and customer service Jane provided. She sourced the perfect diamonds for us and Paul Bram produced a stunning ring. A special anniversary for us, and an experiences we won’t forget. We highly recommend Paul Bram to anyone looking for quality jewelry and an outstanding customer service. Thank you Jane and pb team.

    Fantastic customer service. Sam was a pleasure to deal with, he couldn't have been any more helpful. His assistance was greatly appreciated. Purchased our engagement ring 30 years ago and have come back and purchased an eternity ring as the quality of their jewellery is immaculate. Highly recommend Paul Bram.

    I would recommend Paul Bram for anyone looking for an engagement ring. Sam who took care of me was extremely friendly and professional and helped me pick the perfect ring for my now fiancé. Looking forward to going back and getting our wedding bands.

    Completed my bridal set today at Paul Bram Collins/Swanston st and I am beyond happy with the quality of the jewellery I had purchased as well as with my experience there with the staff. With the expertise and care of Al Samsam, I managed to find my perfect engagement and wedding ring. He took time to listen to me when I explained what I envisioned to be my dream engagement/wedding ring and he was patient and caring with helping me choose . Communicated very well with us throughout the whole ordering process. Never felt pressured whilst making a purchasing decision. He helped create such a fun, romantic and memorable experience for me and my fiance (now husband). We thank-you so much Al Samsam for making what I thought was going to be a daunting experience so easy. I also just had to purchase some diamond earrings as well with his help too! All so beautiful! Definitely coming back to purchase more jewellery. Already have my eye on my next piece.

    I want to say a big thank you to Sam from Paul Bram for the amazing service I received. I took my beautiful engagement ring and wedding band back after 20 years of wearing for some maintenance. Sam and Paul Bram treated myself and my rings like I was a new bride. I highly recommend Paul Bram for your special jewellery needs. To be welcomed back the way I was was amazing. Thank you Sam 😀

    My husband and I bought our engagement, wedding and eternity rings from Paul Bram back in 1985/1986. My 3 rings needed a refurbishment and so we popped back into their store to see what our options were. We were greeted by Sam who gave us his undivided attention whilst we decided on a new setting so that the 3 rings could now become 2. I collected my stunning rings today and we are absolutely thrilled with them. Sam was so excited to see them on my finger. His personalised service is second to none and when we reach our 40 year anniversary we will be paying Sam and Paul Bram a visit.

    I recently purchased an eternity ring from Paul Bram & I found Sarah to be extremely helpful, professional & easy to deal with. I absolutely love the ring, it has been made with high grade diamonds & the quality is superb. I get many comments whenever I wear it. I will definitely be a return customer.

    I just purchased my first diamond and was lucky enough to have Sam help me with this. Not truly realising the intricacy of diamonds I was given the most incredible customer experience by Sam and left with the knowledge that the diamonds I had were the best quality. Such a generous person with his time and patience I truly am grateful for Sam for helping me through this- something I will keep in my memories for ever! Thankyou Sam.

    We had a lovely experience at Paul Bram jewellers and were well looked after by Jane. She was so patient and helpful when choosing our engagement ring and after watching and listening to what I preferred she found the perfect one 'out the back' and explained all the details of each diamond. The ring is absolutely stunning and we are both very happy ❤ Elon & Lija

  • 5/5 Andre J. 3 years ago on Google
    After much research looking for the perfect ring and jeweller, I found Sam Alsamsam at Paul Bram. The whole experience from initial contact to even recently - as my fiancé needed her ring resized - was an absolute pleasure! I knew what I wanted for an engagement ring; however, Sam explained everything so clearly and listened to brief provided, including budget and style. The team is friendly and the quality of the ring itself is incredible! My fiancé, Emily, receives so many compliments on her 'Holly' ring and she said it's exactly what she wanted! Thank you so much Sam, we cannot wait to come back to the showroom closer to the wedding to select our wedding bands!

    Sam was incredibly warm & helpful right from the start! He walked us through the various styles & cuts of diamonds. His knowledge, guidance and also reading what we were looking for, lead us to the perfect ring. The quality at Paul Bram is an absolute stand out & Sam is a true asset to your team. Very highly recommend!

    Jane at Paul Bram is amazing. She is an expert but she also listens to what you want and always helps us find the prefect item. I recommend her to all my friends and family street or amazing experience picking an engagement and wedding rings.

  • 5/5 Andrew Z. 3 years ago on Google
    For anyone that is contemplating Paul Bram, I highly recommend you book in an appointment with one of the friendly consultants, particularly Wilson. We had previously visited many jewellers, but none provided us with that wow factor like Paul Bram. From the onset, Wilson was friendly, knowledgable, and most importantly, patient. We never felt pressured to buy, and instead, Wilson guided us with the information necessary for us to make our own decision. Once we decided on the diamond we wanted, Wilson went to work, and was able to source a beautiful diamond that met all of our specifications. A special thanks to Wilson and the team at Paul Bram for making the experience as enjoyable and seamless as possible!

  • 5/5 Nicholas A. 2 years ago on Google
    Prue was absolutely incredible and super friendly and supportive throughout the entire appointment. I would definitely reccomend speaking to her about engagement rings before looking anywhere else. My partner and I were treated with such amazing customer service that we knew this was the place to go. Looking forward to coming back to look at the wedding bands :)

  • 5/5 Alex L. 3 years ago on Google
    Had a fantastic experience purchasing an engagement ring at Paul Bram. Shopped around a number of stores/dealers and settled with them. Highly recommend asking for Wilson, he was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and patient with a first time buyer. Had a couple of visits before buying and never felt pressured, they are only interested in providing the right ring for the right person. Their rings are also exceptional as well!

  • 5/5 Mark C. 4 months ago on Google
    Thank you so much Sarah and Tina and the team for looking after both of us on the so important purchase of engagement and wedding rings. Your professionalism and expert guidance really made us both feel confident and at ease in our dealings with your wonderful company. Thank you so much.

  • 5/5 Maavee A. 3 years ago on Google
    My partner and I have been to a few shops before going to Paul Bram. The most important thing that struck out to us was the excellent service that was provided by Prue. Prue welcomed us with the biggest smile and she made the process of selecting our wedding rings very easy. We really appreciated that Prue took the time to understand us and was very patient with us. We ordered our rings just around 6 weeks before the wedding and I was very anxious that we may not receive the rings in time for the wedding but Prue reassured that she will help us find a temporary solution if the rings didn't arrive on time. Prue provided us with updates through out the weeks and just to touch base with us. We got very lucky as the rings arrived just in time. We were given a choice to pick them up or get it delivered by express post because of the restrictions. The rings arrived the following day and it was exactly what we wanted and we absolutely love our rings. Prue went above and beyond to ensure that we were happy with our purchase. Paul Bram is incredibly lucky to have Prue as their employee! Thank you so so much Prue! :)

  • 5/5 Laura K. 5 years ago on Google
    We were looking for a creative, elegant engagement ring which Paul Bram was able to design. The central diamond is a heart shape and cut beautifully, flanked by 6 pink diamonds either side. The colours that are reflected from this stone, as well as the Argyle pinks either side and so stunning and hard to stop looking at! Service is excellent and when in Melbourne I take it in to be checked and washed. Highly recommend this Melbourne jeweller!

  • 5/5 Nicola Victoria A. 2 years ago on Google
    We custom designed a very special ring set with Sam. Every step of the way was faultless in experience, design and the finished product. The whole team are fantastic, cannot recommend them highly enough!

  • 5/5 Andrea S. 1 year ago on Google
    I have always had a wonderful experience whenever visiting Paul Bram. My recent visit was to organise Rhodium Plating on my ring and to have it cleaned. Sam was an absolute delight to deal with and the personal touch he gave was lovely. Would highly recommend

  • 5/5 Timothy R. 3 years ago on Google
    Big thanks to the amazing team at Paul Bram, especially Prue, you created an incredible engagement ring for my fiancé and made the whole process so easy for me. Cant thank you enough!!

  • 5/5 James D. 8 months ago on Google
    Sam’s assistance in purchasing my fiancés engagement ring and then our wedding bands was superb. He took the time to listen and hear exactly what we wanted and we couldn’t be happier with our purchase. Sam was always responsive and more than happy to help with any request, making the process run smoothly. Thanks Sam, I know we will be back!

  • 5/5 garland103 3 years ago on Google
    Very fun experience! I walked in very nervous and not knowing a thing about diamonds. The very lovely Prue talked me through it all and gave me a good range of options. I shopped around a bit, but found the other dealers weren't very interested in me as a buyer. So I went back to Prue and we put together a great design. Prue was just as excited as us when I emailed to tell her I had proposed!

  • 5/5 Chris R. 2 years ago on Google
    Great experience. Wilson was very helpful the whole way through and helped us create something unique.

  • 5/5 Sarah K. 1 year ago on Google
    My partner and I visited Paul Bram in 2020 to choose my engagement ring, and again this year for our wedding bands, on both occasions being assisted by Prue. We couldn’t speak more highly of the incredible experience and customer service Prue provided. She was very patient and we never felt rushed. Her knowledge was outstanding, and we really appreciated that she never tried to push us outside of our budget. Both visits to Paul Bram were really special moments for us, and experiences we won’t forget. Thank you so much Prue! Sarah & Jayden

  • 5/5 Noel A. 1 year ago on Google
    My wife Dianne and I had her ruby and diamond engagement ring and wedding ring resized, polished and serviced by Paul Bram. Dianne’s rings were purchased by us 39 years ago at Paul Bram’s. After receiving quotes and advice from other well known jewellers, we unequivocally again chose Paul Bram. Prue from Bram’s was entirely professional, friendly and enviably efficient in her customer service to us. We both highly recommend Paul Bram jewellers and Prue Bell and will continue our custom with them. A great experience.

  • 5/5 Daniel K. 1 year ago on Google
    I purchased an Engagement Ring from Paul Bram, and had the wonderful Jane whom assisted me. Throughout the process from start to finish, Jane was open, honest, kind, understanding, patient and professional. Jane ensured to source the perfect pear shape diamond that I was seeking. Her vast experience in diamonds was reassuring and comforting - making me feel that I was certainly in the right hands. I highly recommend any potential customers to visit Paul Bram, due the rings they produce are of an exceptional standard. Myself and fiancé are incredibly happy with the quality of the Engagement Ring and will have no hesitation to recommend Jane, and Paul Bram to everyone.

    We had a fantastic experience with Wilson and Paul Bram. From the outset, Wilson did a wonderful job helping us choose our engagement ring and we couldn’t be happier with the final product. He guided us through the whole process with his expertise, patience, and kindness. Thank you so much Wilson and Paul Bram!

    We purchased our wedding bands from Paul Bram and Sam was absolutely amazing! He had all the time in the world to meet with us multiple times, try everything and have our rings made with plenty of time ahead of the wedding. He was very knowledgeable about sizes, particularly given we were moving interstate and with a different climate and really reassured us through the whole process. Buying our rings with Sam was by far the most enjoyable piece of planning our wedding. Could not recommend him and Paul Bram highly enough!!

    Sam was amazing with us getting our engagement ring. Although we are slightly younger, he took us seriously and was genuinely excited to explain what makes up a diamond and what makes it look great, whereas other places offered us really poor service. I couldn’t recommend Paul Bram enough, especially Sam. We look forward to getting our wedding bands there.
