What to Do With Old Jewelry? We’ve Got Ideas—Some Might Surprise You
So… what do you do with old jewelry?
Not the heirlooms you treasure or the wedding ring you wear every day—we’re talking about the stuff that’s been sitting untouched for years. The broken chain, the ring that doesn’t fit, the earring missing its pair. Maybe even a gold crown from your last dentist visit (yes, we’ve seen those too).
Most of us have a little pile like that. Outdated, forgotten, or just not your style anymore.
Here’s what we help people do with those pieces—all the time.
Redesign It Into Something You’ll Love (and Wear)
We had a customer recently—she had her grandmother’s pear-shaped diamonds sitting in a cluster pendant. She thought she’d never wear it again. It just didn’t feel like her.
So she brought it in.
We designed a stunning pear-shaped eternity band using those same diamonds. Same stones, completely different story. And now? She wears her grandmother’s diamonds every day.
If you’ve got something meaningful but outdated, we can turn it into something modern—something you’ll actually love wearing. Our goldsmiths are top-tier (not just in Surprise—we’re talking Arizona-level awesome), and we use high-end CAD software to create custom designs built just for you.
No vision? No problem. We’ll help with that part too.
Sell It—Because Gold Prices Are Bananas Right Now
True story: my dad was buying some broken gold the other day. I looked at the price he paid and said, “Wait… did you make a mistake?”
We triple-checked. Nope. Gold prices are just that high.
If you’re not looking to redesign, that’s totally fine. Even the tiniest, beat-up piece of gold can be worth more than you’d expect right now.
We buy:
- Broken chains
- Solo earrings
- Gold with missing stones
- Mangled, twisted, unrecognizable jewelry blobs
- Even old gold crowns (yes, really)
You bring it in. We weigh it. You get paid. No pressure. No awkward haggling.
Combine the Leftovers Into Something Awesome
Let’s say you’ve got three little rings, a charm from your college bracelet, and a chain that got caught in your vacuum (yep, we’ve heard that too). On their own, maybe not much.
But together?
Now we’re talking custom piece potential.
We can melt down gold, repurpose stones, and design something totally new out of the bits and pieces you’ve had sitting around for years. You don’t need to know what it should be—we’ll guide you through it and show examples.
Still Not Sure? Let’s Talk
Some jewelry should not be melted or redesigned or sold. It might be a family heirloom. Or an antique. Or maybe it just means something to you.
But if you’re not sure what you have—if it’s worth keeping, redesigning, or selling—come see us.
We’ll take a look. We’ll be honest. And we’ll never push you to do something that doesn’t feel right.
Because whether you walk out with a new custom piece, some extra cash, or just peace of mind, we want you to feel good about it.
Bottom Line: Don’t Let It Sit There
That drawer full of old jewelry isn’t just clutter.
It’s potential.
It’s value.
It might even be something beautiful, just waiting for its next chapter.
So whether you’re ready to redesign, thinking about selling, or just want to hear another one of my terrible jokes while we look at some gold—we’d love to see you.
