Courtesy of the Artist

I originally found Courtesy of the Artist during my online quest for a jeweller to redesign my engagement ring, in celebration of 25 years of marriage. Carla Maxine, a sublime artist created a ring that I previously only could dream of. I then ordered two of her stacking birthstone rings for my daughter's 21st Birthday. Divine! Nina - nurtures, supports and inspires artists like Carla who work through her studio in the Strand Arcade. Nina and her crew there are a delight. Watching Nina's passion for her own design work, support of other artists and generosity of time she offers to those who come in to Courtesy of the Artist is uplifting. A heartfelt thank you Nina! Warmly, Rebecca

Looking for wedding rings, we stumbled across Courtesy of the Artist in the beautiful Strand Arcade Sydney and very glad we did! We ordered our custom wedding rings and if we knew about this jeweller earlier, we would have bought our engagement rings here too. Very friendly staff in Nina, Carla and the team. Completely unique designs & craftsmanship to produce special jewellery you won't find anywhere else in Australia or the world.

Very unique and beautiful designs, fabulous collections of pati-sapphire, the owner was very very friendly and lovely, thanks for showing me your gorgeous teal sapphire stones. Colour and cutting wise, they are the one of the best I have seen in town. This is the place to go if you are looking for real sapphires. I will 100% go back to her to get my ring made.

Courtesy of the Artist holds a special little place in our hearts. Having purchased my husbands wedding ring here 12 years ago and more recently a beautiful set of rings for me for our anniversary (amongst others) we are so grateful to have sentimental pieces that are individual and bespoke. Little pieces of art to wear each and every day. We have been lucky enough to have Nina help us every step of the way when selecting gorgeous keepsake jewellery that will one day be family heirlooms. This place is a gem, not just the jewellery but the people too!

Unbelievably impressive from start to finish. I trusted Marina and Nina with reshaping my grandmother's engagement ring so I could propose with it. They did an amazing job and I could not recommend them more highly.

I came across Marina on instagram while looking for someone to create a custom ring. This was absolutely the right choice. From the first meeting with both Marina and Nina, showing ideas and gauging my interest to the actual design phase. Marina’s diligence and care to making sure everything was just right was incredible. It truly felt like a partnership in making sure the elements I wanted worked with the overall style. It is a unique and special piece and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a similar experience or piece. Thank you again!

Had an amazing experience getting my wedding ring at Courtesy of the Artist. Nina and Alex were wonderful in helping me choose a unique and special wedding band made by a jeweller from Queensland. They were super flexible with a short timeframe before the wedding, getting it re-sized and even dropping it to my hotel. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough.
