Understandably, the idea of taking apart a sentimental piece of jewellery a family member has passed down can be difficult for some. There definitely are those who prefer to keep such heirlooms in their existing condition until they’re to be passed on to the next generation, but there are also others who see nothing wrong in resetting these pieces, so that they can be frequently worn and equally loved as they were by their former owners.
How a piece is repurposed depends on her customer’s wishes. “There are mainly two types of mentalities – because it is sentimental to me, I want to be able to hold it close by wearing the jewellery every day, or because it is sentimental to me, I want to conserve the original look of the piece,” she shared.
