ReJewel-Redesign Your Jewelry

There are countless reasons why someone might choose to redesign their old jewelry into something new—a lot of times it comes down to aesthetics (your aunt’s 1950s cocktail ring is not your style, or you’re a white gold person, not a yellow gold person, or the bauble in your possession feels straight out of Dallas or Dynasty circa 1985).

 What to do with an engagement ring if the wedding is called off or in the event of a divorce? I have lots of ideas for that! The best way to move on is to reinvent your jewelry into something that celebrates you and your new life—what better way to symbolize a fresh start?

 You might also be in the mindset of wanting to honor a loved one through some jewelry you have inherited from them—these projects can be very personal and emotional. I promise to treat this and all redesign projects with the utmost sensitivity—and discretion.

Well, much like with any custom jewelry design project, the cost is determined by what you are trying to create. So, it depends. Since we will have existing materials to work with, the value of those gemstones and metals will factor into the final quote, a significant savings. To account for my design time, I charge a flat fee of $400 which is credited to the final quoted price.

During your custom engagement ring design consultation, we’ll start by defining your style and narrowing your preferences. We’ll pull up pictures of rings, discuss what you like (and don’t like), and talk a bit about your lifestyle (if you’re always in garden, for example, or an avid surfer, there are some details to consider in terms of how high the ring sits on your finger and the durability of the metal you choose). I may sketch a few concepts as we move along. I’ll advise on diamonds and gemstones, and metals, and together we’ll land a design concept that ticks all the boxes.
