Inherited Jewellery Ideas
Before & after — recent remodels
A Personal Crest Brought to Life
Some commissions begin with something entirely personal
A client’s crest was developed from a 2D design and realised in 18ct yellow gold with an enamel insert, carefully fitted to an antique crown. Alongside this, three rubies were brought together into a bespoke ring — two pieces, each designed with purpose and meaning
An unworn diamond ring transformed
Into a bespoke 18ct white gold pendant
Not every piece needs to remain what it once was. This unworn ring was reimagined as a refined white gold pendant — allowing the diamond to be worn and enjoyed in a way that felt more natural and personal.
An Ancient Stone, Reimagined for Today
A first-century amethyst intaglio
Pieces with history require a considered approach. This amethyst intaglio, dating back to the first century, was carefully set into a bespoke yellow gold ring — allowing it to be worn and appreciated while preserving its character and significance.
An Heirloom, Reimagined for Today
A sapphire and diamond brooch transformed
A piece once worn on special occasions was reimagined into something to be worn every day.The original sapphire and diamond brooch was carefully deconstructed, with each element considered and repositioned to create a balanced platinum anniversary ring — preserving its history while giving it a new life.
From Travel Stones to Something Truly Personal
Tanzanite gemstones discovered on a client’s travels,
These tanzanites were brought back by the client and carefully considered in their new setting — arranged with diamonds and set in platinum to create a refined pair of drop earrings designed to be worn and enjoyed today.

A Client’s Experience of Jewellery Remodelling
I couldn’t be happier with my experience with David. He melted my wedding ring and engagement ring into a single family ring, and the result is exactly what I had hoped for - elegant, meaningful, and beautifully made.
The entire process was incredibly smooth from start to finish.
David was knowledgeable, reliable, and took the time to explain each step so I always felt in good hands. His craftsmanship is outstanding, and his pricing was very fair for the quality and care he puts into his work. I couldn’t recommend David more highly!

What jewellery can be remodelled?
Many types of jewellery can be remodelled, including rings, earrings, pendants, brooches, bangles and bracelets. Whether you are working with a single item or combining several, the design is shaped around what you have and what you would like to create.
What if I am unsure about the design?
You do not need a fixed idea before you begin. David will guide you through 3D visuals and refined wax models so you can see and feel the piece before it is made.
Can I combine pieces from more than one heirloom?
Yes. Many remodels bring together stones or materials from several pieces into one new design.
Can I keep some original stones and add new ones?
Yes. You can often reuse selected stones and introduce new diamonds or gemstones if that helps the final design feel more balanced or more wearable.
How much does jewellery remodelling cost?
Each project is individually quoted after the appraisal. The final price depends on the design, materials, stones, and level of craftsmanship required.
Can I start with photos instead of bringing the jewellery in straight away?
In some cases, yes. Photos can help with an initial conversation, but David will always need to inspect the actual pieces before confirming what can be reused or remodelled.
Can I remodel my jewellery with you if I can’t come to London?
Yes, after our initial virtual consultation, if you live in Greater London or the Home Counties, you can take advantage of my Travelling Jeweller Service
