REMODEL YOUR HEIRLOOM JEWELLERY

BESPOKE REMODELLING

If you want a bespoke and personal piece in Hannah’s own unique style, Hannah can work closely with you to remodel your old jewellery into something you’ll be excited to wear. From start to finish, Hannah will personally talk you through the design possibilities and costings which will be dependent on whether you have enough metal for the whole ring, or just a contribution towards it. Using your unworn heirloom jewellery is a lovely way to add sentimentality to your design and it will help towards the final price of your bespoke design.

PRICING

As a guideline, if you have enough gold for the whole ring, prices start from £750 for a two part ring, £850 for a three part ring or £950 for platinum. A plain band ring made from your own old metal starts from £350. We can provide recycled or fairmined metals if you don’t have enough metal to make up a full piece of jewellery. Stone setting (either existing heirloom stones or new gemstones or diamonds) will be an additional cost and Hannah can quote individually for this option. Bezel setting prices range from £95 to £350 depending on the shape and size of the stone. Please bear in mind that Hannah cannot accept responsibility for gemstones that she has not provided (for example some old heirloom stones may have weaknesses, or inclusions and fissures hidden by settings, that are only revealed when dismantling the original jewellery, or when setting into the new piece).

PRODUCTION TIME

Allow around 12-16 weeks for a remodel. See below photographs for before and after examples of recent remodels. Get in touch for more details hannahlouiselamb@yahoo.co.uk or 07740164809.

While creating a bespoke piece of jewellery from your old heirloom pieces can be a wonderfully sentimental and beautiful way to transform your pieces into something that is more ‘you’, there are some risks involved with dismantling and remodelling old jewellery.
