Circa AD Jewels is a bespoke, one‑stop personal jeweller, owned and run by Adrian Dickens — a jeweller with over 40 years’ experience who is passionate about jewels. Adrian’s experiences included running three iconic Australian jewellery brands for over 20 years.

​

Circa AD Jewels guiding principles are trust, value, and discretion.

 

With a particular focus on creating or re‑creating pieces that will be worn rather than kept in a drawer unseen and unworn, Circa AD Jewels believes, as did the actor and great jewellery collector Elizabeth Taylor, “that jewellery is to be worn, where it can be treasured, loved and admired.”

​

At least 85% of his Modern jewels are made in Melbourne.

​

Adrian is a lecturer with ArtsNational and has presented his talks throughout Australia at select private Clubs, prestigious venues and private homes. He is also a regular commentator on both ABC Radio Melbourne and ABC Radio National's Overnight show.
