AN ACT OF RENEWAL
From vintage gemstones to modern heirlooms
We can repurpose gemstones from old jewellery to retain the value embedded into these materials. If you have gemstones that are sentimental or especially valuable, creating new jewellery with them is an exciting challenge for us. We have been designing heirlooms as a way to embrace vintage gemstones—whether it is in the form of a ring with an inherited diamond that honours a family member, or crafting jewellery using loose, unworn gemstones.
By continuing this practise, we embrace gemstones for their rich stories and the emotional significance they carry into new life as part of your contemporary design.
What is jewellery remodelling?
The process of transforming existing jewellery into a new piece is called remodelling. This can involve melting and refining old precious jewellery, taking off gemstones from a setting to remount, or modifying part of an existing piece with new metal to refresh the design. By keeping materials in the "loop", we can also reduce the environmental impact of traditional linear economy and, to an extent, contribute towards a more sustainable future.
The bespoke experience begins with an invitation to visit our studio through a one-to-one appointment. You can express how you would like to remodel the heirlooms and we will translate this into a distinctive piece with care, understanding, and authenticity.
CASE STUDY
Personalised Sculpture
In this commission, the client wanted to recycle a selection of vintage 9-karat gold jewellery, repurposed as an abstract sculpture. Drawing from modern art for inspiration, we spent approximately 11 months articulating the design and making sure every detail had an exceptional finish. The sculpture was matched with a based made from wenge wood for a striking centrepiece.
With meticulous attention to detail and design, this sculpture upholds our reputation for exceptional craftsmanship.
No matter if your jewellery is new or vintage, silver or gold, acquired from another store or passed down, we can design and recreate it to suit your preferences.
CONSCIOUS CHOICES
Ethical sourcing for a better future
Recycled metals deliver the same lustrous quality and durability as newly mined alternatives, while eliminating the environmental toll of extraction. By choosing to recycle precious metals, you're investing in jewellery that's as responsibly crafted as it is beautifully made. No compromise on brilliance or longevity.
Transforming materials into contemporary designs gives them new life while preserving their history and character.
