CUSTOM DESIGN
Is your jewelry box full of out-of-date or broken jewelry?
Is the family heirloom your grandmother cherished not quite your style?
Whatever your dilemma, we can design something you will actually wear, keeping the original gemstones or metal or just the concept of the piece by re-creating it from scratch.
Below are a few of our Custom Designs, showing the Before and After photos and a brief description.
Bring in your ideas or a sketch along with your jewelry piece and we will create something beautiful Just For You!
Before: Our customer's 14KW Ring needed sized plus he wanted an updated look. After: We sized it up, replaced the blue gemstones with Diamonds and framed them with additional gold. We love the new look. What do you think?
Recycling Memories: Customer's design idea . . . all the gold from HIS and HER wedding rings was combined to create "roots" band ring using 7 of the diamonds and adding additional gold for strength.
Amazing! Using CUSTOMER'S gold and Diamonds from these 3 rings, we created this squared signet-style IU Ring. He was smiling when he put it on his finger! What can we make for you from old, unused jewelry?
Before: Customer's original Wedding Set.
After: A New Look with original marquise Diamond set in a new semi-mounting with 40 Diamonds including a halo and peek-a-boos. Diamonds from original channel Band set in a new Band with shared prongs.

What can we do to improve/update your old jewelry?
Before: Gent's 14K white gold Ring
with Black Onyx and 4 Diamonds.
After: Removed onyx and diamonds,
created and soldered a plate for that space,
set 16 Diamonds, rhodium plated
and polished to finish the look.
How can we update the look of your treasured jewelry?
BEFORE: Our Customer's Filigree Diamond Ring
was worn in the shoulders beyond repair.
We found an 18K Antique Ring mounting
(with original engraving from 1914) that she loved.
AFTER: We re-mounted her Diamond complete
with bezel into the Antique Ring,
retaining most of the engraving
which gives it some extra character.
Lastly it was cleaned and polished . . . beautiful!
What do you think?
Turn a Signet Ring into a
recognition of years of service
for an organization or business.
This can become a tradition
as it has for our local hospital.
Diamonds or other gemstones can be added
to the shoulders as well as
personalized engraving inside the ring.
Before: Customer's two Diamond Rings containing four Diamonds.
After: A beautiful 14K "Stations" Necklace, 27".
What can we do for you to preserve your memories?
Before: Customer's 18K white gold vintage filigree Ring with a center .88 carat Old European-cut Diamond, needed some work to make it wearable.
After: We removed the "finger fit" and supplied a vintage 18K shank, restored 4 prongs, repaired two sharp areas in underbridge, then cleaned/polished and rhodium-plated. Beautiful!
Before: Customer's 14K two-tone Wedding Set
was very worn and broken with missing diamonds.
After: We replaced the illusion head, re-tipped all prongs, built up the underside of the Engagement Ring and soldered the rings together, making a heavier shank. Lastly, a clean and polish and her set is better than new!
What can we do to brighten your jewelry and broaden your smile?
Our Customer's white gold filigree Ring was very worn and broken. We repaired the shank where it was broken, built up the bottom of the shank to make it heavier, re-tipped the prongs and deep cleaned/polished and rhodium plated it.
Quite a difference, don't you think?
We can make your jewelry beautiful again.
Our Customer's original Diamond solitaire engagement ring was transformed into a fashionable 14K rose gold Statement Ring.
Our customer and her husband, after 47+ years of marriage decided to update her wedding set.
She chose two matching 14K yellow gold Artcarved "Ciara" bands, each with 39 round brilliant-cut Diamonds, had her original Diamond mounted on one, then had the rings soldered together.
We just love this idea . . .
Before: lady's wedding set with 14 round brilliant-cut Diamonds plus a gent's patterned wedding band and a new chain.
After: beautiful Pendant with Diamonds set inside the gent's ring.
We can create custom jewelry from pieces you no longer wear or you inherited from a family member.

What can we do for you to preserve a memory?

Our customer wanted a RING betterment.
We trimmed the "tail" on the bottom to match the top, widened the shank and filled the open shoulders.
Last step, cleaned and polished and
Ooh La La . . . we love it!
Our customer upgraded the center Diamond in her Engagement Ring from a .38 carat to a 1.08 carat.
