Jackie came to me with a small collection of jewelry she no longer wore—pieces that had meaning, but weren’t really part of her life anymore. Together, we decided to give them new purpose.
I began by carefully taking each piece apart, removing the diamonds and gemstones and sorting them to find the ones that would shine the brightest in something new. The remaining gold was refined, its value applied toward creating the fresh design we had in mind.

The result is a ring that feels both modern and timeless. Three of her diamonds sit at the center, held in a setting that’s powerful yet elegant—just like Jackie herself.

For me, projects like this are especially meaningful. It’s not just about making a beautiful piece of jewelry—it’s about carrying someone’s story forward in a way that still feels alive and true.

Seeing Jackie wear her new ring, glowing as much as the diamonds, reminds me why I love this work.
