ABOUT Aamina


A woman in a flowing cream-colored dress and beige heels, smiling and holding a beige handbag, stands at the entrance of a modern building with glass doors and round hanging lights.

Layaz isn’t just a brand it’s a story woven through time,
inspired by a family legacy that spans three generations.

But let’s make this a little more fun. Before diving headfirst into entrepreneurship,
I was an English teacher who absolutely loved her job (yes, I was THAT teacher).
Do I miss the classroom? A little. Would I change anything? Not a chance.

A woman is standing behind a jewelry display case at a jewelry booth, smiling and holding a small item. Behind her is a large poster of a woman wearing a necklace and earrings, with jewelry shop branding 'LAYAZ'. The display case contains various rings, necklaces, and jewelry boxes, with some items marked with a 20% off sign.

At its core, Layaz is about storytelling—yours. Every piece we craft is designed to mark a milestone, celebrate a moment, or carry a memory for a lifetime. I’m so grateful you’re here and can’t wait to keep creating something truly special with you.

Let’s make it sparkle! ✨

    A fantastic jeweller based in Parnell.
    Amy, Saadik and the team were hands on and helpful
    throughout the whole process.


    From design to minor adjustments, to assisting with resizing - you'll be kept informed and accommodated. Also it certainly doesn't hurt that they source their own gemstones and provide a more affordable service than most others.


    Top notch and definitely recommended

    I engaged with Layaz Premium Jewellery to design and craft an engagement and a wedding ring. They understood our preferences, needs, story and style and created rings that captured all above and that would pass on to the next generations. They have been great to deal with and I would recommend them to anyone who wants to create fine jewellery that will last the time.

    Really happy with how the ring turned out. Great experience working with Aamina to get the perfect ring!
    Really didn't know where to start and she made the process painless and worked within our budget. Ended up with a beautiful engagement ring.
    Highly recommend!

    Brilliant!
    After watching Opal Hunters I commissioned Layaz to make a piece of Jewellery with an Opal as the centrepiece. The process was amazing with Aamina taking us on a journey from the brief through to handover.

    The handover - such a stunning piece that far far exceeded expectations. I will say TV doesn't come close to capturing the magic and depth of Opal but Layaz and their team did. Incredible.

    I completely trust the team at Layaz and am so anticipating going on that exciting journey again for the next piece.
    Thanks Team

    Amazing experience from start to finish! With such a busy lifestyle, I really appreciated how smooth and stress-free the whole process was. The custom-made ring turned out beautifully — my fiancée absolutely loved it. Thank you for creating something so special and making it all so easy!

  • Hugh Wallis

    I recently worked with Layaz to design and create a custom engagement ring, and the result is nothing short of perfect. The process was smooth, easy, and completely stress-free, even for a total novice like me.

    I initially provided Layaz with my budget and an idea of what I wanted. They immediately exceeded my expectations by delivering exceptional quality and transparency on every detail—from the stone's specifications (carats, colour, cut) to the final cost.

    The level of customer care truly amazed me. Knowing I was proposing in Africa and was nervous about traveling with the primary piece, the Layaz team helped me commission a perfect replica ring to take on the trip. This detail alone shows their commitment to their clients and their proposal experience.

    I am thrilled to report I got a resounding "Yes" to my important question, and my fiancée adores the ring! I cannot recommend Layaz and their team highly enough. For exceptional service, brilliant communication, and stunning custom jewellery, they are simply the best.
