Repurposing Jewelry

New style for the old style.

When a piece of jewelry sits in your jewelry box because you no longer connect to the style doesn’t mean that the meaning and connection you have goes away. 

Or maybe you have a family heirloom, an old wedding ring, or a lost earring.  These pieces of jewelry have a sentimental value that can not be measured. You can not bring your self to get rid of them.  There is no reason why theses should not be seen.  I believe that these pieces enter your life for a reason and belong to stay there and be seen. 

You can use old diamonds in a new piece of jewelry, to redesign wedding rings, convert the single earring into a ring or a necklace or a ring into more.   

Easy As 1-2-3-4-5-6-7.

This engagement ring and wedding band set is an heirloom upcycle made with the diamonds from four rings. The engagement ring's center stone is prong with a halo of melee. The settings vaulted to raise the center stone. The side stones are classically set pave. The wedding band is set in the same style as the side stones on the engagement ring with a classic pave setting.

All custom fine jewelry should be cleaned and inspected once a year depending on how often you wear your heirloom.
