Melt & Make!

Turning unwanted rings into a diamond set pendant.

Consultation

The initial concept of the design was based on a pebble necklace to have an organic feel. Having feedback from the client ‘so long as the diamonds sparkle I’m happy’, the design was changed with this in mind.

Design

The client wanted to use her three larger stones only and use these in the finalised pendant. We decided on a three stone tapering pendant with design consideration to which way the taper should be.

3D Prototype

The melt and make process was used, which is a technically challenging process and requires a high level of expertise from our goldsmith to achieve the end result. We all learnt to appreciate the different processes needed before achieving the end result.

Finished Product

The finished piece looks amazing and the client was very happy that she had managed to use her unwanted gold and turn this into something that is beautiful and wearable.

Edit* Just had another absolutely amazing experience with AA Thornton. I went through their bespoke process for an engagement ring and I am over the moon with the result and was very happy with the process, service and attention to detail. I couldn’t recommend them more!

Sally and all the team at A A Thorntons are absolutely fabulous - professional yet friendly !
I recently had a ring set redesigned and they were so helpful, keeping me updated every step of the way so that I had input into the settings.
I would definitely recommend them for this type of work and also for the wonderful range of items, jewellery and gifts, that they have in store.
Sally - I can't thank you enough for all your hard work and the utterly beautiful result.
