What to do with jewelry received as an inheritance?
Solution: Jewelry Transformation
Transformation is a physical and artistic process that brings jewelry that has been left behind to life. With the help of an experienced jeweler, you explore the various transformation possibilities. Thanks to 2D or 3D drawings, you are able to clearly visualize the work to be done and the final result. By reusing the original raw materials and stones, the soul of the jewelry remains and its new look will make you want to wear it. In addition, it is an eco-responsible gesture. If you are now thinking about taking your jewelry out of its hiding place, you have three choices.
The little change
It often happens that only one small change is necessary for the piece of jewelry to regain its full splendor. You like the initial shape of the jewel since it is closely linked to a memory but the size or function of it is not suitable. It is therefore possible to make a slight modification to maintain the original appearance while making it more attractive to wear. Why not transform a ring that's a little too bulky into a beautiful pendant?
The great metamorphosis
As in life, sometimes big changes are necessary. You own a completely old-fashioned ring, 18k gold earrings with emeralds and some gold bracelets . Thanks to the recycling of all these metals, you are able to afford the design and production of a brand new ring, without having to take a single dollar out of your pocket. Collect the little diamonds to complete the big metamorphosis and we are convinced that this could be the most beautiful piece in your jewelry chest.
Financial compensation
It may also very well be that your heirloom jewelry means absolutely nothing to you. All you want to get is fair financial compensation in exchange for them. The resale value is often very disappointing and it will be even more so if you do not deal with people you trust. You could actually get robbed. Do not hesitate to seek references from your friends to prevent this from happening to you.
Don't sell your jewelry
One last little piece of advice before you leave: Don’t sell your jewelry ! We often repeat this phrase to our clients since it is the least advantageous solution when it comes to your heirloom jewelry.
