Remodelling Jewellery with David Law
Jewellery remodelling allows you to create something modern and wearable from a family heirloom or a jewellery piece that you no longer wear.
David can reuse materials, gemstones and diamonds, reducing your carbon footprint, which is better for the environment, whilst using the essence of the original piece as your inspiration for something new.
Preserving the old & creating the new
Repurposing your old Jewellery offers you the perfect opportunity to keep those precious memories and family history alive whilst giving it a fresh and a new lease of life in a bespoke piece that reflects your style.
David can transform even your most dated items of Jewellery into stunning, contemporary-looking pieces with a bit of imagination and creative flair.
The Consultation Process
On your initial discovery call, David aims to understand your requirements, advise you, answer any questions and suggest options.
The following step will be to arrange a face-to-face Zoom call, meeting him at his Hatton Garden, Central London Studio, or in the comfort of your home to finalise the details.
Our service is all about what works best for you.
Redesign a Family Heirloom
Suppose you've inherited or been gifted an item of Jewellery from a cherished family member or friend that you hold dear but don't wish to wear in its current form. In that case, jewellery remodelling could be your ideal solution.
Perhaps you've been given a set of earrings with exquisite stones that you love, although it's in a design that isn't quite to your taste?
Or maybe you've inherited an engagement ring in yellow gold that you'd find much more wearable in platinum?
Upgrade Your Engagement Or Wedding Ring
Do you have an existing engagement ring, wedding ring, and eternity ring that you'd like to rework into new modern designs?
Perhaps you'd like to add more stones or change the precious metal, retaining the diamonds or gemstones from your original design? Whatever your wish to achieve, David would be delighted to advise you on all your options for creating a stunning new piece.
Examples Of Before And After Jewellery
Engagement, Wedding & Eternity Ring
My client wanted me to create a new engagement ring, wedding ring, and anniversary ring from a family heirloom engagement and wedding ring that did not match her style.
Sapphire & Diamond Ring
My client came to me with an oval sapphire ring that she no longer wanted to wear and an idea for a new ring style she wanted me to make. My role was then to transform those ideas into a new modern ring.
Pink Sapphire & Diamond Ring
My client came to me with a pair of diamond earrings that he wanted to incorporate into an engagement ring with a pink sapphire that I sourced set into the centre.
Anniversary Ring
My client asked me to repurpose a family sapphire and diamond brooch into an anniversary ring for his wife. Together we came up with a ring design that worked perfectly for her and her lifestyle.
Repurposing Your Stones
With David's remodelling design service, you will discuss how best to use your existing stones in your new jewellery piece; and as your designs develop, you can look at adding extra gemstones, which he will source for you.
For example, you might consider adding a splash of colour, perhaps sapphires, rubies or emeralds?
Recycle Precious Metal
You will also discuss with David how best to repurpose the precious metals from your Jewellery, and he will present you with all your options.
For example, you could take the yellow gold from your existing piece and combine it with white gold or platinum – this technique is particularly effective when creating wedding rings.

Inspire
David will appraise your existing Jewellery, explore your ideas for your new piece and share his design vision with you. In addition, you will explore how best to incorporate your stones into the design and whether to add extra diamonds, gemstones, and precious metal options.
