Heirloom Redesign And Restoration
Learn about Heirloom Redesign & Restoration
A ring that has sat in a drawer for thirty years can be worn again. Bring us an inherited piece and we will tell you honestly what it needs, whether that is a careful restoration that preserves the original character or a redesign that puts the stones into something you will actually reach for.
Our heirloom work includes:
- Resetting inherited diamonds and colored stones
- Rebuilding worn prongs, shanks, and settings
- Period-appropriate restoration of antique and estate pieces
- Dividing one piece into several so more than one family member can wear it
- Reworking a setting that no longer suits the hand it sits on
- Pearl and bead restringing
Every step happens at our own bench in Saint James, and nothing is altered until you have seen and approved the plan.
