THE JEWELLERY REMODELLING PROCESS
-
Consultation:
The process typically begins with a consultation between the client and a jeweller. During this meeting, the client discusses their vision for the remodelled piece, outlines any specific design preferences, and shares the materials they wish to repurpose. -
Assessment:
The jeweller assesses the existing piece(s), considering factors such as the condition of the jewellery, the quality of gemstones or metals, and any potential challenges or limitations in the redesign process. -
Design Proposal:
Based on the client’s preferences and the assessment, the jeweller provides a design proposal. This may include sketches, computer-generated models, or other visual representations of the proposed remodelled piece. The client has the opportunity to review and approve the design before proceeding. -
Material Selection:
If the client wishes to incorporate gemstones or metals from the original piece, the jeweller carefully removes and evaluates these materials for reuse. Additionally, clients may choose to supplement or replace materials to achieve the desired look. -
Crafting Process:
Once the design is finalised and the materials selected, the jeweller begins the crafting process. Skilled artisans work to transform the existing jewellery into a new design. This may involve reshaping metals, resetting gemstones, or adding new elements. -
Setting Gemstones:
Gemstones are set into the new design with precision. This can involve various setting techniques, such as prong setting, bezel setting, or pave setting, depending on the design and gemstone type. -
Polishing and Finishing:
The remodelled piece undergoes meticulous polishing and finishing to enhance its aesthetic appeal. This step includes smoothing surfaces, refining details, and ensuring a flawless appearance. -
Quality Check:
A thorough quality check is conducted to ensure that the remodelled piece meets the client’s expectations and adheres to high-quality standards. This may involve inspections for durability, gemstone security, and overall craftsmanship. -
Client Approval:
The client is invited to inspect the finished piece and provide approval. Any necessary adjustments can be made at this stage to ensure complete satisfaction.

what our customers say
See for yourself what some of our very happy customers say about Waldemar Jewellers.
My partner gave me his grandma’s Saphire for Christmas. After hearing great things about Mark from a close friend we went and met with him with a view to getting him to design a ring for us. I was a bit nervous as I generally don’t wear jewellery and wanted it to be something I’d love and wear every day. Mark did an amazing job with the design and we are so happy with the result. I get complimented on it all the time.
Very happy. Went out of their way to help us with designs to remake an engagement ring to exactly what we wanted and the wedding bands Mark made for us were absolutely fabulous!!! Extremely happy and will recommend them to friends in the future!!!
Mark was incredibly patient and helpful in suggesting both cost efficient and design options for getting my inherited jewellery re-set. The pieces were stunning. I highly recommend using Waldemar and will be sending more pieces his way!
