Absolutely! These are my favorite types of projects. My own engagement ring's center stone belonged to my great grandmother, so I completely understand the sentimental value in family jewels. We will evaluate the stone(s) and come up with the best way to incorporate them into your new ring!

Price depends completely upon the complexity of the design, what type of piece we're making, what materials we will be sourcing, and what components are being used from the previous piece of jewelry. The Re-Design process starts at $1,500 USD.

All of the metals we use are 100% recycled, but we cannot melt down your old gold or platinum and use it in your new piece because it needs to be refined and all alloys need to be removed. Using your existing metal as is compromises the integrity of the new jewelry and causes imperfections, pits, and alloy clumps, which renders the jewelry unwearable. We can recommend a local jewelry buyer who would give you scrap value on your metal to use towards your redesigned piece!

Together we will go through each piece of jewelry to determine what stones/elements are usable in your new design. We can use sapphires, diamonds, rubies, pearls, emeralds, opals, spinel, and any other precious gemstones in your newly designed heirloom piece!

Our stone evaluation process is extremely thorough. Often, well-loved jewelry will have damage due to long years of wear. Before we remove the stones from their current settings, we deep clean them. Then under a microscope we look for any damaged stones. If a stone appears to be broken or chipped, we will not remove it from the setting. We will contact you immediately and receive written consent to do continue, at the risk of the stone becoming damaged further. We are not liable for any stones that come into our care that have already damaged. 

​

Depending on the severity of the break(s) and chip(s), we can determine if the stone can be salvaged. Unfortunately, there is high risk involved in using a broken stone. So most commonly we would not be able to use it in your new design.

Fill out the Heirloom Re-Design Questionnaire on the top of this page! Then, we will send you our Custom Design Contract where the terms and conditions must be read and agreed to before we begin working on the piece. Please note that we require a non-refundable 50% deposit to help cover the costs of materials and labor. Heirloom Re-Designs are non-refundable and non-exchangeable.
