Re-designs
Many people have jewellery which they don't wear anymore. We offer a re-design service to re-cylcle old jewellery into something new and beautiful .
The 'polyp' ring shown used 18ct white gold with 12 round brilliant cut diamonds of varying sizes, from about four pieces of unused jewellery. This design could use a minimum of five stones.This design also works very well with coloured stones in yellow gold.
Our re-design service can transform unused jewellery into a pendant, bangle and earrings. Examples of our work so far, can be seen under commisssions: re-designs and e-boutique: wedding rings.
Unused jewellery can also be used to make an engaement ring and matching wedding ring, which would have all the sentimentality of the jewellery used but it would be worn in a more contemporary style.
This re-design service works best when we can see the jewellery to be re-cylcled. We can then provide the most appropriate and affordable design, based on the techniques used to make it.
Engagement Rings.
We have an extended choice of engagement rings to choose from and there are a few ways of making them:
-traditional solitaires with round brilliant cut diamonds or fancy cut diamonds are available under, e-boutique:- solitaires. These are just a few examples, we have more in our catalogues in our shop.
-we can make new-designs, using the lost wax process, to make a truly unique engaement ring. Pictures and ideas are always welcome for this option.
-we can re-design unused or sentimental jewellery into a more contemporary engagement ring, with matching wedding ring.
If you have any ideas or pictures, we are always pleased to help. We have had a couple of people who have wanted a change from round brilliant cut diamonds, as a result we have made rings using a pear shaped diamond and another engagement ring using a triangular diamond. Ideas are most welcome.
Wedding rings.
Our re-design service can match wedding rings to existing engagement rings and also match eternity rings to a set, as shown.
There are a few examples of matching wedding rings in e-boutique:- wedding rings.
We can also re-design simple wedding rings using cuttlefish casting. This technique allows sentimental, hallmarked gold to be re-cycled into a d-shape or flat shape wedding ring. This enables loved ones' gold to be worn by a new generation, with all the sentiment still attached.
