Ready-made jewellery offers immediate gratification. These pieces are expertly crafted and available for you to see, try on, and take home right away. Whether it’s a timeless solitaire, a classic gold bangle, or a contemporary diamond pendant, ready-made collections are ideal when you want something beautiful and expertly finished, without the wait.
You might choose ready-made if you’re shopping for a gift or an occasion with a tight timeline. This option allows you to see and feel the piece before you buy, and often includes iconic, proven designs that stand the test of time.
Custom jewellery is a chance to bring your unique vision to life. Whether it’s adapting a classic style, redesigning a family heirloom, or creating something entirely original, bespoke design ensures your jewellery is as personal as your story.
Custom is ideal when you want something tailored to your exact taste, from metal to gemstone, and when you want to add deep personal or sentimental significance. The result is a one-of-a-kind piece with enduring value.
Sometimes the choice is clear. You may want a ready-made piece for its speed, convenience, and classic appeal—perfect for anniversaries, milestones, or self-gifting. Alternatively, you might opt for custom design when celebrating a once-in-a-lifetime event like an engagement or when you have a vision that can’t be found in-store.
Many of our customers blend both approaches: they purchase timeless ready-made essentials while planning bespoke creations for extra-special occasions.
Whether you fall in love with something from our ready-made collection or dream up your own design, Moores Jewellers ensures every piece is crafted with the same level of care, precision, and artistry. Our team is here to guide you—whether you're choosing from our curated collections or embarking on a custom design journey.
In short: there’s no wrong choice—just the right fit for your needs today.
