Redesign Your Jewelry
As we have a strong commitment to intergenerational transmission and a concern for the environment
we can give a new life to your old jewelry by transforming it, and recycling your gold and
precious stones.
Whether your jewelry is old, damaged or out of fashion, it is never lost. It is always possible to modernize your jewel, using its main raw materials. Jewelry transformation is ethical, economical and, above all, sentimental, as it enables you to wear your jewels throughout the years and even to pass them down to the future generations
how do we proceed to redesign an old jewel ?
The transformation of a jewel consists in taking it apart in order to restore the precious materials and recreate a brand new design. The new jewel will be redesigned by Valerie Danenberg herself and manufactured in our Parisian workshop.
The objective of a “jewel revival” (or transformation) is to “co create“ a new modernized design by using your gold and precious stones. The old materials will be recycled and reused in order to give a second life to your jewels.
The designer will examine your jewels and offer a new design hence preserving its spirit and history. It will be created by reviving either your colored stones or diamonds.
why should you choose to transform your jewels ?
Jewelry transformation can be a good idea if you want to preserve certain parts of your jewelry, while modifying its design.
Furthermore, transforming an old or broken piece of jewelry can enhance its value. The old mine diamonds and colored gems car also be polished or recut if necessary by our expert lapidary so the can de revived to their original luster.
Recycling your stones and gold is a cost-effective way of obtaining a new piece of jewelry. Therefore by transforming an old jewel, you save the purchase of a new stone in addition, if your gold is of good quality and can be recycled, we deduct it from the price.
the sentimental aspect involved in the transformation of your jewel
A jewel is often a vector of past feelings and emotions as it may have been gifted on a special occasion such as an inheritance, proposal, birth or birthday. It will bear with you all along your life and carry on with the future generations.
