PATON'S PLACE JEWELLERS OPENS
1971
Our grandfather, Albert Paton, opened the first Paton's Place Jewellers in Thomastown with $150 in his pocket, a small range of watches, and — as the family story goes — no locks on any of the cabinets. Over five decades later, we're still here
LALOR STORE OPENS
1977
Six years in, our family outgrew Thomastown. We packed up the cabinets, moved a few suburbs over to Lalor, and opened the doors of what would become our home for the next 36 years.
RESERVOIR STORE OPENS
1978
A year after settling into Lalor, our family opened a second store in Reservoir — a sister shopfront where we'd serve generations of local families for the next 38 years
CRAIGIEBURN STORE OPENS
2013
Our family had already made Craigieburn home, so it felt right to bring the business with us. We closed the Lalor store after 36 years — bittersweet, but the right call — and opened a brand new Paton's Place at Craigieburn Central, ready for the next chapter.
RESERVOIR CLOSES
2016
After 38 years in Reservoir, we said goodbye to the store that had served multiple generations of local families. It wasn't easy — but with Craigieburn growing fast, we knew it was time to bring everything under one roof and pour our energy into building something better.
STILL HERE, STILL FAMILY
TODAY
Today, Paton's is still family-run from our Craigieburn store. We've watched our neighbourhood grow up, designed rings for couples whose parents bought rings from us, and turned cherished heirlooms into pieces ready to be passed down again.
The shopfronts have changed, but our family hasn't.

Testimonials
"I highly recommend Paton's Place Jewellers, they are not just after a sale, they genuinely care about their customers wants and needs. They gave me great advice and options about a repair I needed to my ring. I appreciate your honestly and work ethics."
"Service is always so genuine and price so reasonable. Extremely helpful and patient in the process of creating something special. The attention to the finer details really puts them at the top of the list for us. So appreciative for your fabulous service."
"We bought our engagement ring & wedding bands 6 years ago now from Patons place and can not be any happier. They are super friendly and always willing to take their time to explain prices and the different types of stones there are. Every time my ring has needed a clean they have never turned me back, i’ve always left with a beautiful shiny ring. Thank you for your service and your warmth and kindness. We will always recommend you!"
"I had a family diamond necklace reset here. Great price and quick turnaround! It looks absolutely amazing, I would definitely go back for more custom work. Thank you so much."
"I've had an old antique clock that needed work and I've been dealing with Ray. I cannot speak too highly of the effort and time Ray has spent on this clock. Nothing has been too much trouble and the courtesy and friendliness is something that's quite rare these days. I have no hesitation in recommending this establishment and will be using their services again."
