With the price of Gold and other precious metals riding high at the moment we find ourselves increasingly using clients’ old family jewellery in the making of their new jewellery. We had a meeting with a client on Saturday who had been given a number of old pieces of jewellery that had lived in a box, under a bed for some time. It had just been sitting there, why not make use of it.

I always make a photographic record of any jewellery we take in to be upcycled or repurposed and as I was photographing this particular collection of rings and pins, I noticed the engraving inside two of the rings…

JB & MC 28th April 1874

These two rings don’t appear to have started life together; the patterned band was hallmarked in Birmingham in 1873 and the narrower band bears Scottish hallmarks but they have travelled together for nearly one hundred and thrity eight years.

We rediscovered these pieces of sparkling diamond jewellery hiding in a box at the back of our safe. We looked at each other and said ‘drat’ (or words to that effect). They are far too gorgeous to go back to living in a box in a safe, thus we have decided to offer them at half their original retail price. With thirteen days to go until the romancefest of Valentines Day, it’s a perfect opportunity to give gorgeous diamonds this February 14th without hurting your bank balance.
