Turning a Duplicate Ring into Earrings

Jewelry is full of emotion, and memories.

That's why inheriting a piece of jewelry after the loss of a parent can present challenges. Sometimes, although very sentimental, children find that the jewelry they inherit isn't their style, which means it can sit in a jewelry box unworn for years.

But jewelry is meant to be worn! And it can be re-worked into something you love.

A woman recently came into our store with a LAGOS ring she inherited from her late mother. In this case she loved the style--she already had the same ring herself!

When originally visiting us, she was wondering if she should sell one of the rings. Then our design specialist stepped in with another idea: cut one of the rings in half to create a pair of matching earrings.

She was thrilled with the outcome, which left her with a beautiful suite of LAGOS jewelry. It also allowed her to keep the memories of her Mom close.

This is the perfect time to go through your jewelry box. Collect the pieces you no longer wear, but perhaps don't want to part with, and set up an appointment with one of our design specialists. We'll give you some ideas to re-work the jewelry into something you'll love and cherish.
