Canturi

What Canturi does

Canturi is an Australian luxury jewellery house founded in Sydney in 1986 by designer Stefano Canturi. The company designs, manufactures, and retails handcrafted fine jewellery — engagement and wedding rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, bangles, men's jewellery, and the recently launched Cubism Watch — all made in its Sydney studio using GIA-certified natural diamonds, coloured gemstones, and 18ct gold or platinum. Its signature collections (Cubism, Primavera, Stella, Regina, Athena, Eternal) articulate distinct design philosophies, with an Australian Black Sapphire specialty and a High Jewels bespoke tier for one-off collector pieces.

The business operates an appointment-based, direct-to-consumer model through three owned boutiques — Sydney (flagship, 80 Castlereagh Street), Melbourne, and Brisbane — supported by a global e-commerce site. Pricing ranges from $150 (gift cards) to $306,000 for the highest-value engagement rings, with bespoke High Jewels priced upon application. After-sales services (cleaning, repairs, resizing) drive recurring engagement. Distribution is intentionally exclusive, with no third-party wholesale. Marketing relies on editorial coverage (Harper's BAZAAR), Instagram, an email newsletter, in-boutique events, and Google reviews, targeting affluent couples, high jewellery collectors, men's luxury buyers, and special-occasion gifters.

Canturi is privately held, founder/family-owned, with no external institutional funding identified. Headcount is reported in the 11-50 range, consistent with a deliberately small-scale, craft-led operating model. The 2024 launch of the Cubism Watch — limited to 15 pieces per year — represents the company's first move into luxury timepieces and its most significant recent category extension.
