✨ would you wait 20 years for a pair of earrings?

I turned my client’s special pearls into a set of convertible dangle earrings with 14k gold cherry blossom studs.

Now she has two ways to wear her earrings!

Do you follow the price of gold?

I don’t expect that many people outside the industry do (other than investors).

In a nutshell, the price of gold has been fluctuating A LOT but overall it’s up up up.

If you have gold jewelry that you’re not wearing, now is a great time to reimagine those pieces into something new.

Think your jewelry appraisal = the true value of your piece?

Not usually. And that can be confusing.

Here’s the reality I explain to clients all the time: an insurance valuation is an estimate of what it would cost to replace or completely remake the piece today.

Finding matching stones, materials, and paying for the labour to craft it exactly as it was when it was brand new.

That number is much higher than resale value, because resale reflects market demand for your specific piece of used jewelry, not replacement cost.

But here’s the tricky part: the valuation is often lower than what you may have originally paid for your jewelry.

Appraisals don’t add value for the hours of design, the idea, or any personal collaboration that made the piece one-of-a-kind.

While I still recommend getting insurance valuations on any high value jewelry you own, here are some things to keep in mind:

- Know the difference between “replacement cost”and “actual cash value.”

- Keep invoices, design notes, and photos.

- Update appraisals after repairs or changes.

- Ask your insurer exactly what their figure represents (and what’s covered in case of loss).

✨ One ring from many

I took my client’s sentimental jewelry collection and turned it into a single ring. Now she can carry all of the memories with her every day.

Bonus: her scrap gold turned out to be worth over $3700.
