REMODELLING A PIECE OF JEWELLERY WILL TAKE IT ON AN EXCITING JOURNEY…
-
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.

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.

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 piece is made from start to finish by Martin and Laura in our studio. Average making time is 5-10 weeks although more adventurous pieces will take longer. We will do our absolute best to accommodate a tighter deadline.
