Give old jewelry new life · San Clemente, California
Heirloom redesign
The ring from your grandmother. A pendant no one wears. Sara can turn the pieces you’ve inherited into jewelry you’ll wear every day.
What can be reused
Sara checks every stone first. Most diamonds and many gemstones can be reset, and your gold can be reused or credited toward the new piece, depending on its karat and condition. She’ll tell you exactly what’s possible once she sees it.
- Full CAD redesign with photorealistic renderings
- Existing stones re-set into the new design
- Your gold reused in the new piece or credited toward it, where its karat and condition allow
- Additional stones or metal sourced as needed
- Revisions until the design is right

It's made
Wherever you are
Sara redesigns heirlooms for families wherever they live — in her San Clemente studio, or from anywhere in the world by message, call or video. Send her photos of the piece first; she checks the stones and metal from them, you see the new design in renderings, and only then does the piece travel, insured, to the studio. The finished piece is delivered insured to your door.
Keep the story
Engrave a date or initials, hide a small stone inside the band, or keep one detail from the original.
Is Sara right for you?
Couples anywhere who want a one-of-a-kind engagement ring designed with a GIA Graduate Jeweler — seen in photorealistic renderings before anything is made — and families who want a loved piece of inherited jewelry made wearable again.
- No moissanite.
- No catalog or mass-produced rings.
- Every piece is quoted individually after your consultation.
