Jewellery Remodelling Service.

The first step is to get in touch with us! You can either visit our Griffin & Co Fine Jewellery showroom in Chichester with your pieces, or contact us by phone or email to schedule a consultation.

During this initial meeting, we'll discuss your ideas, examine your jewellery, and answer any further questions you may have. We look forward to helping you transform your treasured pieces into something new and beautiful.

The possibilities are vast! We can undertake a wide range of transformations in our workshop, including:

• Melting and recasting: Transforming old gold or platinum into a new design.
• Repurposing gemstones: Setting existing diamonds and coloured stones into a new setting.
• Combining pieces: Blending elements from multiple items into a single, unique creation.
• Updating styles: Modernising outdated designs to reflect current trends.
• ✦Adding or removing elements: Incorporating new stones or metal details, or simplifying existing pieces.
• ✦Changing metal types: For example, transforming yellow gold into white gold or platinum via plating or resetting.

Just share your ideas with us, and we'll discuss the best approach to achieve your desired outcome.

The timeframe for jewellery remodelling can vary depending on the complexity of the design and the work involved. After our initial consultation and once the design is finalised, we will provide you with a more accurate estimate.

Generally, you can expect the process to take anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months. We pride ourselves on meticulous craftsmanship and will ensure your new piece is perfect before it leaves our Chichester workshop

The cost of remodelling is unique to each project and depends on several factors, including the amount of metal and gemstones involved, the complexity of the new design, and the labour required.

We offer a no-obligation consultation where we can assess your existing jewellery and discuss your ideas. Following this, we will provide you with a detailed quote outlining all costs involved, ensuring complete transparency.

Absolutely! At Griffin & Co Fine Jewellery in Chichester, we specialise in jewellery remodelling. Bring in your unworn or inherited pieces, and our expert designers will work closely with you to understand your vision.

We can melt down precious metals, repurpose gemstones, and combine elements to create a bespoke piece of jewellery that you'll love and cherish.

Yes. Remodelling changes materials, stones and workmanship, so the pre-existing valuation no longer describes the piece your insurer is covering.

An insurance valuation is the cost to replace the piece new; resale is what it would fetch second-hand. Insurance valuations are typically higher, and are the figure your policy should be based on.

Yes. We value pieces regardless of where they were made or bought — you don’t need to have had work done with us.
