Frequently asked questions

Orders, returns + shipping

Olive Green Spark SymbolWhat is your returns policy?

Our goal is simple, to ensure you feel completely confident in the stone you have chosen. For loose stones, we offer full money-back returns made within 14 days. Stones must be returned in original condition, including certificates and documentation. 


For bespoke jewellery, since each piece is handcrafted to order, all sales are final. We confirm all design and order details carefully and answer any questions before you commit to ensure your forever piece is everything you hoped for. Please get in touch with us at info@hopediamonds.com.au before returning any items so we can guide you through the process.

Gemstones + care

Olive Green Spark SymbolAre your coloured diamonds treated?

Olive Green Spark SymbolDo you sell lab-grown diamonds?

We don't currently stock lab-grown diamonds; however, we're more than happy to source them for you. Given recent price fluctuations in the lab-grown market, this approach allows us to offer the most competitive and up-to-date pricing.
