In the ever-changing world of fine jewellery, where trends come and go, Ernesto Buono Fine Jewellery stands out for its lasting elegance and unmatched craftsmanship. For over 20 years, founder and CEO Ernesto Buono has dedicated himself to blending traditional Italian techniques with modern Australian style, crafting pieces that capture life’s most meaningful moments. His creations, each a unique masterpiece, have adorned thousands of clients, transforming moments into memories and turning dreams into wearable art. Exploring Ernesto Buono Fine Jewellery reveals a story of dedication and the relentless pursuit of perfection in an age defined by mass production.
Ernesto’s love for jewellery started at 17, inspired by the art and culture of Ischia. Surrounded by master artisans and stunning natural beauty, he developed a deep love for jewellery making. He studied sculpture and painting at the prestigious Accademia delle Belle Arti in Naples, perfecting techniques passed down through generations of Italian artisans.
From dreams to wearable art
In 2001, Ernesto Buono moved to Australia, launching his fine jewellery brand. His unique approach—combining Italian heritage with Australian creativity—earned him a reputation as one of Sydney’s most respected master jewellers.
“My journey in jewellery making started at 17, inspired by the natural beauty and rich artisanal traditions of Ischia,” Ernesto reflects. “Those early years shaped my understanding of form, texture, and aesthetics, allowing me to blend classical techniques with contemporary design.” Today, in Sydney, his creations reflect that passion, turning raw materials into unique works of art. “Every gemstone has a story,” Ernesto Buono shares. “My job is to listen and bring that story to life in a way that resonates with the wearer.”
From engagement rings that symbolize eternal love to custom statement pieces celebrating life’s milestones, his designs go beyond jewellery—they’re personal heirlooms in the making.
Built to last: the power of quality craftsmanship
In a world of fast fashion and mass production, Ernesto believes true luxury lies in craftsmanship that endures. His engagement rings, for example, are designed to last a lifetime.
“The durability of a piece depends on the materials used, the craftsmanship, and how well it’s cared for,” Ernesto explains. “A ring should be as strong as the love it represents.”
His careful selection of materials and attention to detail ensure that each piece is both beautiful and long-lasting—destined to be treasured for generations.
