An platinum heirloom remade in white gold.

Laura and her parents came in with the ring in

the picture above. It was made of platinum and

set with a lovely Old Mine or European cut diamond

accented by sapphires and diamonds.

As you can see, some of the platinum had worn and

the ring was losing gemstones.

The ring had been made for them by an old family friend who

had since passed away and it had temendous sentimental value -

Laura's mom wanted Laura to have it.

They wanted to know if we could remake the ring in white gold.

Yes we can! The above image is just one of a series of

computer images produced by the CAD program as

we orchestrated the re-build.

Voila! Here is the finished piece in 14kt white gold.

The only difference was that we had to use modern,

diamond cut round sapphires to replace the ones that were left.

(The original sapphires were cut by hand and somewhat irregular

which made matching them impossible.)

We also made the gallery area which hold the sapphires slightly thicker

so that the ring should be a thing of beauty for years and years -

for Laura's daughter to wear when she is old enough.
