STEP 1: Browse our shop and bespoke gallery for inspiration. Consider the type of piece you would like made, and the particular style you like. We are happy to combine different elements of two different pieces to create an individually unique piece.
STEP 2: Consider the jewellery you have to remodel. We can work with all colours and carats of gold, as well as platinum. Check your jewellery for a hallmark and weigh it. We can also do this in the studio for you. We can remodel most gemstones as long as they are in good condition. We will check them under a microscope in the studio to make sure they are useable.
STEP 3: We will send you a design sketch and price based on the previous steps. If you prefer to add a new gemstone to your new piece we can source a number of options for you to choose from. Depending on the size and style of the finished design we may need to add more gold to the melt which we will source for you.
STEP 4: Once you have chosen your design we require a 50% deposit before we begin making. The remaining balance it due once the piece is complete.
STEP 5: We ship your new treasure to you or call into our studio for collection.
-
We can reuse most heirloom gemstones which are in good condition. Before they are removed from their current setting they will be inspected closely under a microscope to identify any breakages or weak spots.
We carefully remove your gemstones and reset them into their new setting with the greatest of care. However in the unlikely event of any breakages we cannot be held responsible although we will do our best to resolve the issue.
-
Each remodel cost differs from client to client, depending on the piece you want made, the amount of gold you have and the cost of additional gemstones you may require. We recommend you enquire to have a free consolation with us to discuss your budget

Remodelling a piece of jewellery will take it on an exciting journey…
“I first discovered Cameron & Breen in 2020 when they designed me a one of a kind necklace to mark my time living in Belfast. It is one of my most treasured possessions to this day.
Then earlier this year, when I'd booked my elopement in Ireland, I knew I had to have them design my wedding ring - a combination of an engagement and wedding band. Words can't really describe how special my ring is. I am so lucky to be able to look down every day to see the most beautiful ring. It's more than I could have ever hoped for.
Then, with a bit of short notice, I asked if they could make a matching set of earrings for my wedding day which I'm so thankful they were able to do. When I saw the design come through they were just perfect. Cameron & Breen are amazing to work with. They are so talented and creative and I wouldn't want to work with anyone else for special pieces of jewellery.
I'm the proud owner of three Cameron & Breen pieces and hopefully more in the future!”
