Remodelled jewellery pricing
The price of a remodelled piece of jewellery will vary greatly depending on the materials used and complexity of the design.
As a rough guideline remodelled designs using your own gold and gemstones start at £350 for a plain wedding ring and £500 for a stone set ring or pendant. Jewellery set with multiple gemstones usually start at £1500. Please see some example pricing below.
If you have a budget in mind, we can design your jewellery accordingly to make sure you’re happy with the final price.
Here’s an outline of the costs of a bespoke piece of jewellery:
- Initial consultation in person in Salisbury, or online by zoom and email, to establish a rough price estimate – FREE
- Design sketches, from initial designs to a developed final design - £100 (which will be deducted from the final price of your chosen design)
- Deposit – once the final design is accepted, a deposit of 50% is required before materials are ordered and crafting begins
- Final balance – once the finished jewellery is ready to collect / dispatch the final balance is required (minus your initial design deposit and 50% deposit)
If the jewellery to be remodelled is sentimental we can usually refine and reuse the metal from the jewellery as well as the gemstones. However, it can be cheaper to use new gold or platinum and offset the value of the original metal. We can advise you accordingly when the existing metal is appraised and weighed.
There is always a small risk when using heirloom gemstones, especially brittle and soft gems such as emeralds and opals. Again, we can advise you accordingly to reduce the risks as much as possible.
Below are some remodelled jewellery examples with guide prices. There are many variables which would affect the exact price, but hopefully it will be a useful guide.

Testimonials....
Some kind words from a few lovely past customers...
"Ellie is without a doubt the best jeweller someone could ask for. Her knowledge of designing, stones and metals is amazing, she works with your ideas (even with my poor explaining) to create exactly what you're after. I picked all my stones and spent time with her deciding the colour lay out and Ellie never one for frustrated with my OCD'ness with this! we did so many layout combos until it was right. (again my fault as I wanted to check every single way we could lay it out!!).
if you're looking for a jeweller she is the one, especially to make you something bespoke! Ellie will make your jewellery journey special and include you as much as she can/you want." Beth
"Ellie designed my wedding ring and it is stunning! Better than I could have imagined would definitely recommend! Have ordered my Fiancé’s ring and it’s here today all very exciting, we can’t wait to wear them. Nothing is too much trouble and the quality is amazing. A very talented lady." Jackie
"Elinor made us an eternity ring, incorporating gold and diamonds from a couple of other pieces of jewellery. The design is bespoke to fit over a wedding ring and she offered several mock-up designs to choose from. Throughout her communication was excellent and the finished ring is perfect." Simon
"Ellie was so professional, providing us with different stone options we could see in advance of her making the ring. She was so helpful, and the finished products are gorgeous. I would definitely recommend friends and family to go to her for jewellery needs." Cathy
