This Mother’s Day, we welcomed so many of you into our store for a weekend centred around connection, conversation, and jewellery with meaning. From one-off sandcast creations to bespoke design discussions, it was a celebration we will hold onto for a long time.

A glimpse into the story behind UbyKate. In a recent interview with Jewellery World, Kate shares the journey, ideas and values that continue to shape the brand today

The cushion cut has quietly re-emerged as one of the most defining shapes in modern engagement rings. From celebrity proposals to our FLOAT Cushion Cut design, we explore why this soft, structured silhouette continues to feel timeless rather than trend-led.

UbyKate’s personalised jewellery began almost 24 years ago with the first hand-stamped Ubercircle, created while Kate was expecting her daughter, Lulu. Today, we transform handwriting, drawings, fingerprints and memories into meaningful, wearable keepsakes designed to be cherished for a lifetime.

Inspired by Kate’s mother and her signature love of vibrant pink, The Fuchsia Collection reimagines our most loved and new UbyKate designs in a new fuchsia gemstone for Mother’s Day.

After 24 years of jewellery craftsmanship, the Tri-Cut Diamond Rings mark a shift from traditional design toward individuality and legacy.

Not because they are loud or showy, but because they carry the weight of everything that came before them. This is one of those moments. The Custom Tri-Cut Diamond has officially been certified by the International Gemological Institute. It is...

    Sometimes the most beautiful pieces begin with a simple conversation. Not in a jewellery store.Not over a glass counter. But on a screen, thousands of kilometres away. L first reached out from Western Australia. We jumped on an online call and started talking about the kind of ring she had always imagined. Not just the size or the...

  The Rise of The 'Non Traditional' Engagement Ring in 2026 For years, engagement rings followed a fairly predictable formula. A diamond. A white metal band. A classic solitaire. Beautiful, yes. But also expected. In 2026, in the designs we are creating at UbyKate, we are seeing something shift. Couples are leaning into individuality. They are choosing engagement rings that...

There is something so powerful about contrast. Light beside dark. Soft beside bold. Classic beside unexpected. It is often the tension between opposites that creates depth and meaning. That idea sits at the heart of our Gem Clash Ring Collection. We threw out the rulebook when it came to these designs, in favour of celebrating the unexpected beauty that happens...

    There is something deeply moving about honouring where you have been while allowing yourself to become who you are now. Recently, I had the privilege of creating a custom ring for a client who came to me with her original wedding set. A beautiful natural diamond solitaire engagement ring paired with a simple wedding band set with nine...
