Bijou de Famille vol.5 "Turn a sleeping ring into a special accessory"

At Colette Gift, we offer custom-made jewelry to suit your needs.

We can offer various redesigns (remodeling) and custom orders using your natural stones and accessories!

One of these is to carefully pass down jewelry from generation to generation, from the past to the present and into the future.

We will help you with "Bijou de Famille".

Jewelry that is passed down through generations as a happy memory of grandparents and parents and as a symbol of family ties is called "bijoux de famille," meaning family jewels.

In today's blog, we will introduce some order examples from customers who have placed orders with us in the past.

Mr. Y came to our store and said, "I saw a catalog of renovations and came to ask about refinishing a ring that had been sitting dormant for a long time."

Apparently her late aunt had a lot of jewelry, so she brought four rings.

【Before ①】

Three rings set with rubies and pink tourmalines.

She was wondering whether to decide on a design for each ring individually or remove the stones from each ring and make them into one accessory.

As we were talking, looking at the products in the store, Mr. Y said, "This design is so nice."

He looked with interest at a ring decorated with several diamonds of different shapes.

"It's wonderful!" exclaimed the entire staff, and the design was decided to remove the stones from the three rings and combine them into one.

Considering the balance with the three stones, we received a request to put a small diamond in it,

The diamonds were added as a service from our store.

【Before②】

The other is a heart-cut moonstone ring.

She was worried, "I like moonstone, but the design is so cute that I never get a chance to wear it."

While taking advantage of the beautiful heart cut, we have tried to create a simple design, with a simple frame.

I suggested a pendant top.

【After①】

This is a special ring that was created while taking into consideration the size and balance of the stones.

The design allows you to enjoy the brilliance of ruby ​​and tourmaline all at once.

All the staff were excited when they saw the finished rings!

[After②]

The arms of the ring were cut off and the frame surrounding the stone was polished beautifully by a craftsman, transforming it into a simple pendant top.

Because it is a three-dimensional stone, it goes well with both short and long necklaces.

"I've been looking forward to this!" said Mr. Y, who came to the store to pick up his order.

She was very happy with both the ring and the pendant top.

Ms. Y always has a lovely outfit.

We hope you enjoy trying out different combinations.

Past, present and future.

If you have any accessories that have been sitting unused for years, please bring them to Colette Gift.

Our designers will make suggestions based on your needs and budget.

Please feel free to consult with store staff.
