Repurposing Older Jewelry
Did you know you could take old jewelry you don’t wear and turn it into something completely brand new and incredible? So many people keep old jewelry tucked away because it is out of date, the style doesn’t fit their current aesthetic, it’s an old family heirloom, or perhaps a piece is from an old relationship and while it holds monetary value, it no longer holds sentimental value.
The good news is that jewelers like David Tishbi can work one-on-one with you to completely repurpose and redesign a new piece of jewelry that you will be proud to wear and not leave hidden away in your jewelry box. Jewelry is meant to shine, not collect dust.
HOW DOES IT WORK
Perhaps a grandmother left you a big, intricately designed ring, but you prefer a more delicate and modern style. No problem! Metals can be melted down to create a new design. Tishbi will work with you to create a custom piece that matches your design style. The stones can be reused in a number of ways to fit the new design. Being part of the creative process with the jeweler assures that you will be more than satisfied with the end result. Customers rave about the incredible transition of old to new, and are proud to wear their new custom, handcrafted pieces.
