A Legacy of Craftsmanship
Jewellery is more than a piece to wear – it’s a story, a memory, and often a legacy to pass down through generations. At Harry Rose Jewellery, we believe that every client deserves a piece that is as unique as they are. Since opening our doors in 2009, we have specialised in creating custom, handmade jewellery from the heart of Canberra.
Harry’s Journey
Founder and jeweller Harry Rose has spent more than 20 years perfecting his craft. His journey began in the Kybeyan Valley, where he grew up on his family’s farm before pursuing his passion for design and craftsmanship.
After a four-year apprenticeship with a local Canberra jeweller, Harry travelled to London, where he worked as Production Manager at David Marshall London, a prestigious firm whose work included pieces for Boodles and De Beers. During this time, the company was awarded UK Luxury Jeweller of the Year, and Harry refined his skills working with some of the world’s rarest gems and most intricate designs.
In 2009, Harry opened his workshop in Canberra and his business and skills continue to grow.

A Personal
Approach
Despite these international experiences, Harry always felt drawn back to Canberra, where he could offer clients something different: a truly personal, one-on-one jewellery design service.
Every client works directly with Harry, not a salesperson.
This means you’re collaborating with the craftsman himself – the person who will sketch your design, source your stones, and hand-make your piece in his City Walk workshop.
Our philosophy is simple:
- Every piece should reflect the client’s taste and style.
- Jewellery should be made to last a lifetime - both in design and durability.
- Every gemstone should be sourced with integrity and care.
Ethical Gemstones & Australian Sapphires
Harry works with an international network of trusted suppliers, with a special love for Australian sapphires, which carry a natural beauty and ethical story that many of our clients treasure.
For those passionate about the supply chain, Harry partners with The Australian Natural Sapphire Company, ensuring he knows the miners and cutters personally.
jewellery for Life’s Milestones
Over the years, Harry has been privileged to play a role in countless milestones: engagements, weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, and family celebrations. Clients often return again and again, entrusting Harry to create pieces that mark their life’s most important moments.
Whether you’re dreaming of a one-of-a-kind engagement ring, looking to remodel an heirloom into something new, or commissioning a unique gift, the experience is personal, collaborative, and crafted with care.
“We concentrate on hand-making a piece of jewellery that is a reflection of our client’s taste and style, designed and made with that in mind, rather than just trying to sell them something we have in stock or can reproduce easily.”
