If you have jewelry tucked away in your jewelry box that you never wear or heirloom pieces passed down from family members, its time to take them out and give them another look. Jewelry is a renewable resource. We can help you recycle and renew those unloved pieces.
Jewelry is meant to be worn. Changing a seldom worn piece into a piece of new jewelry that reflects your taste makes it more likely that you'll wear it. Reinventing an heirloom is a great way to keep the memories of loved ones alive.
Before you begin to reimagine your jewelry, bring it to us. We love making old jewelry new. We can help you decide if your jewelry is a good candidate for turning into something new and wearable.
Here are a few tips to breathe life into an older piece of jewelry:
- Wear it in a new way. Rethinking how the jewelry is worn is the easiest way to make old jewelry new. A brooch can become a pendant. So can a ring.
- Reimagine an old piece. A little imagination can turn heirloom pieces that are too small, fragile or damaged to be worn into beautiful new pieces that will become heirlooms for future generations that still have ties to the past.
- Set the gemstones into a new piece. You might consider removing the gemstones and creating a new piece with the stones. You can also divide the gemstones among siblings or other loved ones so everyone can share the memories and create their own heirlooms.
- Turn a larger piece of jewelry into several smaller ones. The gemstones in a necklace can become earrings. The gemstones in a ring can become a necklace and earrings.
- Change the metal. A gemstone set in yellow gold can be changed to white gold or platinum. Change a white metal to yellow gold or rose gold for a new look. Its an easy way to create a new piece you'll love to wear.
- Make it fresh and wearable again. Sometimes all a piece of jewelry needs is a "tune-up". Bring it in to us. We'll check to make sure the gemstones are secure in their settings and give it a cleaning.
