Today’s contender in Australian Jewellery Week doesn’t come cheap, but the range is so gorgeous that I just had to give it a mention.

Georgini is an Australian-owned family jeweller that makes some serious bling that won’t (completely) break the bank. Each piece is made of rhodium-plated sterling silver set with cubic zirconias, semi-precious stones and crystals.

The result is pieces such as these beautiful cocktail rings pictured here, which are part of the spring/summer 09 collection and sell for $329 each. Check out the site to find earrings, necklaces and other jewellery in a similar style.

Georgini jewellery stockists are listed on the site.
