Traditional turns Fresh

You probably have some inherited jewellery at home that was given to you by a family member or older relative. Chances are, you think that you will never wear them, because they were made when the fashion was different. Here is an example of a traditional type or earrings that got a fresh new look, by making a new design using only the existing gemstones.

Faye liked the Sapphires and she wanted a pair of earrings, but other than that, these earrings were not at all what she would want to wear.

We suggested to jazz things up a bit by setting the smaller Sapphires on one side, and the Diamonds on the other. A pretty daring choice – but with the centrepieces matching, the result is not too crazy. Instead, the result is a very elegant pair of earrings. Modern, but with the Original White Gold colour giving it a touch of vintage glamour.
