Your Guide to Building a Real-Life Fine Jewellery Collection
Here’s the truth about
lab-grown diamonds
: they don’t wait for an occasion.
They are the occasion
. At Coluxe, fine jewellery isn’t something you save for “someday.” It’s something you live in - every outfit, every mood, every version of you.
This isn’t about excess. It’s about
essence
. The pieces that slip into your daily rhythm as naturally as coffee, perfume, and SPF. Ready to curate your diamond wardrobe? Start here - with the icons of everyday luxury.
1. The Signature Ring
Every collection begins with a
centrepiece
. A diamond ring that feels like a
personal landmark
. It says: I arrived. I chose this. I’m proud of where I am.
Begin with a
Coluxe solitaire
in
round
,
emerald
,
pear
or
oval
cut - or add a splash of colour with an
emerald
,
ruby
, or
sapphire
. You can always stack later. The first piece should simply feel like you.
2. The Stackable Eternity Bands
These are the
building blocks
- slim, versatile, endlessly playful. Wear them solo, stack them high, mix metals, mix moods. A slim
diamond eternity ring
one day, a
ruby
or
emerald band
the next. Sometimes the most effortless stacks are the ones that feel a little imperfect.
3. The Solitaire Studs
If you buy nothing else, buy these.
Lab-grown
diamond studs
are the definition of effortless polish. They look as right with a messy bun as they do with a boardroom blazer. You’ll forget you’re wearing them - until someone in line for coffee reminds you.
Coluxe tip:
pick a size you’ll actually live in. For most, that’s 0.25 to 0.5 carat per ear.
4. The Everyday Necklace
One pendant, infinite moods. A
round solitaire
grazing the collarbone. A
prong-set coloured stone
for a subtle edge. Layer with a
tennis necklace
when the mood strikes. This is the piece you put on in the morning - and forget to take off.
5. The Tennis Bracelet
The ultimate flex, understated by design. A
tennis bracelet
worn daily doesn’t shout “event.” It whispers: I know what I like.
Our Coluxe versions are feather-light yet luxe, and yes, we make them in colour too.
Ruby
,
emerald, sapphire
- all the sparkle, none of the compromise. For something
simpler
, the
Diamond on a String
is a forever favourite.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. Can coloured lab-grown gemstones be included in everyday wear?
Absolutely. Lab-grown emeralds, rubies, and sapphires are durable, beautiful, and perfect for stacking or solo wear. They add personality, mark milestones, and make your collection feel lived-in, not locked away.
2. How do I mix and stack pieces without looking overdone?
Balance is key. Mix metals, shapes, and textures while alternating bold and subtle pieces. Lab-grown diamonds and coloured gemstones are perfect for layering, as they allow experimentation without the high cost of mined stones.
3. Are lab-grown diamonds durable enough for daily wear?
Yes. Lab-grown diamonds are chemically and physically identical to mined diamonds and rank 10 on the Mohs hardness scale. They are perfect for everyday rings, studs, necklaces, and bracelets that move with you.
4. How do I care for my everyday pieces?
Simple care is enough: mild soap, warm water, and a soft brush. For extra longevity, store your pieces separately when not wearing them and avoid harsh chemicals - your lab-grown diamonds and gemstones are durable, but a little care goes a long way.
5. Can I start small and build my collection over time?
Definitely. Lab-grown diamonds make it easy to gradually expand your collection, stacking rings, adding bracelets, or layering necklaces as your style evolves. Every piece can tell a story, one purchase at a time.
