Jewelry Redesign

My Redesign Process turns the jewelry you no longer wear, old, inherited, or simply out of style, into a piece you'll reach for every day. Using your own gems and gold, I reimagine rings, necklaces, bracelets, and earrings into modern, one-of-a-kind heirlooms that carry your story forward. Every redesign is bespoke, handcrafted, and done with you from start to finish, wherever you are.

How My Redesign Process Works

The process is personal and transparent, and entirely remote if you prefer.

1. Free virtual consultation. We talk through your pieces, your story, and what you'd love to wear, no pressure, no obligation.
2. Send photos of your jewelry or gems. Share what you have and the vision in your mind, and I'll assess the stones, the metal, and what's possible.
3. Custom design. I design a piece built around your materials, your style, and your budget, and you approve every detail before any work begins.
4. Refining & crafting. I responsibly refine your old gold, reset your stones, and hand-craft the new design in my studio.
5. Your new heirloom. You receive a finished piece made to be worn, loved, and passed on, shipped fully insured and tracked.

What You Can Redesign

If it holds meaning, it can be reimagined:

• Engagement rings & wedding bands, modernize a dated setting, mark an anniversary, or honor a marriage with a fresh design.
• Inherited & heirloom jewelry, turn a grandmother's ring or a mother's necklace into something you'll wear every day.
• Old or broken gold, refine unworn gold and apply its value toward your new piece.
• Loose or set diamonds & gemstones, gather stones from several pieces into one meaningful design.

Repurpose Old & Inherited Jewelry

Some of the most meaningful redesigns start with a piece you never wear. I repurpose old and inherited jewelry, turning a ring into a necklace, a brooch into a pendant, or combining several forgotten pieces into one you'll actually wear. Your gold and gemstones live on in something new, reimagined with your own materials or new stones I supply.

Reset Your Diamonds & Gemstones

Love your stones but not the setting? Resetting is one of the most requested redesigns. I move your diamonds and gemstones from a worn, dated, or damaged setting into an entirely new design, a classic solitaire becomes a sculptural band, or scattered stones become a single statement piece. Your gems stay; the design becomes truly yours. Learn more about resetting a diamond ring.

Use Your Own Gold, Sustainable & Sentimental

Working with your own materials does three things at once: it preserves the sentimental value of the originals, it lowers your cost, and it is far kinder to the environment than mining and buying new. If you have gold or platinum you no longer wear, I refine it responsibly and apply its value toward your redesign, with transparent pricing and a clear quote before any work begins.

What Jewelry Redesign Costs

Every redesign is custom, so the cost depends on the design, the materials, and the labor involved. Because you supply your own gems and gold, redesign often costs significantly less than buying a comparable new piece. After your free consultation you'll receive a transparent, itemized quote, and nothing proceeds until you approve it. No surprises, just a clear path from your old jewelry to the piece you'll actually wear.

Why Redesign With Me

This isn't a factory service. Every piece is designed and handcrafted by me, Stacey Lorinczi, around your story and your materials. You work directly with the designer at every step, you see and approve the design before it's made, and you end up with a one-of-a-kind heirloom, not a catalog item. And because the whole process can be done remotely with insured, tracked shipping, you can redesign your jewelry from anywhere.
