What is a Jewelry Makeover?
Essentially, it's transforming jewelry from one form to another. Of course, jewelry is really all about the memories, feelings, honoring loved ones and expressing yourself. Reimagining your jewelry's story and creating a personalized work of wearable art is so satisfying for our wonderful clients and for us!
Here are some of the many forms a jewelry makeover can take:
Restyle jewelry from your past to a style that suits you now.
Reset diamonds or gems from broken jewelry.
Honor your loved ones by creating a wearable symbol of your love, restyling/combining inherited jewelry.
Repurpose an old engagement ring.
Reuse/recycle your own gold.
Rethink jewelry that no longer works with your lifestyle.
Refresh just because you're ready for a new look.

Upcyling Your Gold
Can I Use My Own Gold?
With our process of "same molecule refining" you can not only use your own gold, but you can turn it into any color or karat of gold! The original pure sentimental gold from your old jewelry is removed and can then be made into any type of gold. For example, your 18K yellow gold can become 14K white gold.
Traditional refining combines your gold with other gold in a large lot and the pure gold that is returned isn't necessarily your original gold. With "Same Molecule Refining" it is only the 24K pure gold from your jewelry that is returned. An ounce of gold is required for this process and only gold jewelry is eligible.
In some cases we can use your metal directly to create something new. Our goldsmiths and designers will help you determine the methods that will give you the best outcome for your special project.
You can also trade your gold and platinum for recycle credit toward your jewelry makeover.

I’m so happy we found Jewelsmith! They transformed Mom’s ring into a beautiful new set and it is perfect. Thank you Mary and Tracy!
Jewelsmith did an amazing job creating a new stunning piece of Jewelry from dated pieces I already had.They heard what I wanted and produced exactly that! Can’t wait to go back!
Tiffany did a fabulous job of reimagining my diamonds and earrings. The two rings are absolutely stunning! So thankful for her creative touch and the Jewelsmith team for the beautiful work!
Tiffany listened to my vision for my ring and helped me design a ring that I am absolutely thrilled to wear!! It was important for me to preserve the diamond from my original engagement ring as the central portion while also adding new elements. This ring does all of those things and makes me smile each time I look at it! Highly recommend and will return to Jewelsmith for all future needs!! Thank you so much Tiffany!!
On a whim, I asked Jewelsmith to create new pieces from family rings that did not match my taste. Working with their team each step of the way, the finished jewelry literally took my breath away. I could not believe that they were the same stones. My vintage jewelry is now being enjoyed instead of sitting in the safety deposit box. THANK YOU to everyone at Jewelsmith for your craftsmanship.
I went to Jewelsmith tohave the diamond from my mother's engagement ring made into a pendant necklace. They made me feel like royalty from the moment I walked in the door. I felt like part of the design team as my piece was being made from scratch! There were no surprises. They helped me understand how to ask for my heart's desire, and the final product is amazing. Fantastic customer service, no upselling. I love the fact that Jewelsmith supports community arts organizations as well. Brava!
