A wedding ring is the most worn piece of jewellery most people will ever own. It is on your finger every day — through work and sleep, travel and celebration, the ordinary moments and the extraordinary ones. That daily presence is precisely why it deserves to be made well, made to fit your life, and made with care.
At Franco Jewellers on Collins Street, Melbourne, we create wedding rings the way all fine jewellery should be made: by hand, in-house, by a master jeweller with over 25 years of experience, and in close collaboration with the couple wearing them. Whether you are looking for a simple platinum band, a diamond-set design in rose gold, a bold ring for him, or a perfectly matched set — we begin every commission by understanding you, and we end it by placing a ring in your hands that you will be proud to wear for the rest of your life.

A wedding band for women needs to do two things well: complement the engagement ring it will sit alongside, and feel entirely right as a standalone piece of fine jewellery. Getting both right requires thoughtful design, not just a band that happens to be similar in metal.
At Franco Jewellers, we design women’s wedding rings in direct conversation with the engagement ring — whether that ring was made by us or came from elsewhere. We consider the profile, the setting style, the metal, and the overall proportions, and we design a band that sits flush, looks intentional, and wears comfortably alongside the engagement ring day after day.
Options range from a clean, polished band in your metal of choice through to diamond-set designs in a variety of configurations — channel set, claw set, pavé, and bezel — and everything in between. If you have a specific vision, we work from it. If you are not sure yet, we help you develop one.
All women’s wedding rings are handcrafted in our Melbourne workshop in 18ct white gold, yellow gold, rose gold, or platinum, and set with GIA certified diamonds where selected.

Wedding Rings for Him
Men’s wedding rings have evolved considerably. The plain gold band is still a classic — and remains a genuinely excellent choice for many — but today’s grooms are increasingly drawn to more distinctive designs: two-tone metals, textured or brushed finishes, diamond accents, broader bands with architectural detail, or rings that reference personal interests or heritage.
At Franco Jewellers, we take men’s wedding rings as seriously as we take any other commission. Our master jeweller creates men’s bands with the same precision and care as our most complex bespoke pieces, and the design conversation follows the same process — understanding your style, your lifestyle, your preference for subtle or statement, and building a ring around that.
We work with a range of metals for men’s wedding rings including 18ct white, yellow, and rose gold, platinum, and where appropriate, titanium. Whether you want something refined and understated or bold and distinctive, the outcome should be a ring you actually want to wear — not one that simply ticks the box of being on your finger on the wedding day.
Matched Sets — Designing His and Hers Together
There is a particular satisfaction in wearing rings that were designed as a pair — not identical, but clearly made to belong together. A shared metal choice, a complementary width, a detail that echoes across both bands without being a direct copy. The design coherence is visible at a glance, and it matters to many couples.
At Franco Jewellers, designing wedding rings as a matched set — for her, for him, or for any couple — is something we approach with care. We consider the full picture: the engagement ring if there is one, the preferences of both partners, and the practical differences in how the rings will be worn. The result is a set that has genuine visual harmony without either partner compromising on what they actually want from their ring.
Matched sets can be entirely bespoke or built around existing designs in our collection. The process is the same as any custom commission — consultation, design development, approval, and handcrafting in-house.
Designing Your Wedding Ring to Match Your Engagement Ring
For most women, the wedding ring question is not just “what style do I want?” — it is “what will work alongside the ring I already have?” This is one of the most common design conversations we have, and one we are well practised in.
The fit between an engagement ring and a wedding band is not just visual. It is physical — the bands need to sit comfortably together without gaps, without the engagement ring rotating or lifting, and without the settings catching on each other. A well-designed wedding ring takes the specific profile of the engagement ring into account and is shaped accordingly.
If your engagement ring was made by Franco Jewellers, we already have the specifications and can design the wedding ring as a natural companion. If it was made elsewhere, bring it in and we will assess it before any design work begins. We can work with any engagement ring, regardless of where it was made, and we will always give you an honest assessment of the options that will work best for your specific piece.
Why Choose Franco Jewellers in Melbourne for Your Wedding Rings
Everything is handmade in-house. Your wedding rings are created in our on-site workshop by our master jeweller — not sent to a casting house or outsourced. This means complete quality control, superior metal density, and the craftsmanship that only comes from hands that have been doing this work for over 25 years.
58+ years of Italian heritage. Franco Jewellers was founded by Italian immigrant Franco Ceresiani in 1968, and today his daughters Silvana and Daniela carry that legacy forward with the same values: precision, quality, and a genuine care for every piece that leaves the workshop. Italian jewellery-making tradition is in the DNA of everything we create.
You work directly with the owners. Silvana and Daniela are not sales consultants — they are the owners of a family business built on six decades of reputation. When you sit with them to design your wedding rings, you have the full attention and personal accountability of people who care about the outcome as much as you do.
A relationship that extends beyond the wedding day. Many Franco Jewellers clients return for anniversary rings, eternity bands, and eventually engagement rings for the next generation. The relationship does not end when your rings are collected. Ongoing cleaning, inspection, resizing, and repair support are part of what we offer as a matter of course.
No pressure, ever. Choosing a wedding ring should feel considered, not rushed. At Franco Jewellers, you have the time you need — to visit more than once, to refine the design, to ask every question. We have never and will never use urgency tactics or pressure sales. The “friends just the same” philosophy that Franco Ceresiani established in 1968 remains the way we do business.
Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should I order custom wedding rings?
We recommend allowing a minimum of six to eight weeks from design approval to collection for most custom wedding ring commissions. If you are designing a matched set or a complex piece, slightly more lead time is advisable. Booking a consultation as early as possible gives you the most flexibility and avoids any pressure as the wedding date approaches.
Can you match a wedding ring to an engagement ring made by another jeweller?
Yes. Bring your engagement ring to our Collins Street boutique and we will assess it carefully before designing the wedding band. We work with rings made by other jewellers regularly and will always give you an honest assessment of what design options will work best for your specific ring’s profile and settings.
What metals do you work with for wedding rings?
We work with 18ct white gold, yellow gold, and rose gold, platinum, and titanium for men’s rings. We will discuss the practical differences — durability, maintenance, appearance over time, and suitability for your lifestyle — during your consultation so you can make an informed choice.
Do you create wedding rings for same-sex couples?
Absolutely. We design wedding rings for all couples, full stop. Every commission begins with understanding the people wearing the rings, and that conversation is the same regardless of who you are or who you are marrying.
What does a custom wedding ring cost?
Pricing depends on the metal, the design complexity, and the diamonds or gemstones selected. We work across a range of budgets and will be transparent about costs from the first consultation. Contact us or book an appointment to discuss your specific requirements and receive a personalised quote.
