Remodelling existing jewellery

Keep what matters. Change what no longer works.

We assess what can be safely retained, then develop a wearable new design around it.

Remodelling possibilities

What can be kept, changed or added?

Remodelling begins with the piece in front of us. Our jewellers review the stones, metal, setting and sentimental details, then guide what should be preserved, adjusted or replaced.

A sketch, CAD preview or model can help you understand the new shape, proportions and details before your jewellery is reworked.

    Review the shape, proportions and meaningful details with confidence.

    Jewellery remodelling FAQs

    Questions about reimagining your jewellery?

    Every piece carries different materials, details and meaning. These answers explain how existing jewellery can become a new custom piece.

    Can existing stones be reused?

    Existing diamonds and gemstones can often be reused when their condition, size and suitability support the new design. Our jewellers will review each stone and explain how it could be reset.

    Can existing metal be reused?

    Existing precious metal may be reusable in some projects. Its condition, alloy and the requirements of the new design need to be reviewed before this can be confirmed.

    Do I need to know exactly what I want?

    No. Bring the piece and any ideas you have. Our team can help identify what matters most and explore a design direction that feels personal and wearable.

    Can I see the design before it is made?

    Yes. Depending on the project, a sketch, CAD preview or model may be used to help you understand and approve the design before it is made.

    How is remodelling different from restoration?

    Restoration focuses on preserving the original character of a piece. Remodelling transforms existing jewellery, stones or metal into a new design made to be worn now.

    How long does jewellery remodelling take?

    Timing depends on design development, material checks and the complexity of the new piece. The Steve Pallas team will explain the expected timeframe once the design direction is confirmed.

    Do I need an appointment for jewellery remodelling?

    An appointment is recommended so our showroom team can spend time with your jewellery, discuss what you would like to keep and explain possible design directions.
