“ I'm so proud to be wearing an Iain Henderson Designs ring! ”

“I’m absolutely over the moon with my gorgeous engagement ring remodel!  Thank you IHD!  Unfortunately, I had nothing but trouble with my original ring.  My shank was bent and very thin after being incorrectly resized twice, the diamonds on my shoulders were very exposed due to how thin the metal was, meaning my diamonds were at great risk of falling out.  Keeping the design the same, Iain and the team re-made my beautiful engagement ring, making sure all my diamonds were protected correctly and also made the design wed-fit which my previous ring wasn't.  This means I can now have my wedding sit beautifully next to my engagement ring with no gaps!  I'm so proud to be wearing an Iain Henderson Designs ring!”

“ from the bottom of my heart ”

“Thank you Iain, Karl and Lindsay from the bottom of my heart, for helping me to fulfil a long term dream and to further a family tradition, for not assuming a request for coal jewellery to be some sort of wind up, for being so patient in the design and make process (probably a lot more patient than even I realise) and for the speed and efficiency.”

— Andrea Hartley —

“ Over the moon with the results ”

“I went to Iain wanting wedding rings, I inherited my grandma's wedding ring, which was this chunky, yellow thing.  I wasn't sure what could be done with it but Iain talked us through the options and was really upfront about what does and doesn't work.  The finished product is fantastic, especially given that it was not a pretty ring to start with!  He gave us exactly what we wanted, was really clear and communicative through the process.  Over the moon with the results, would recommend to anyone looking to do something similar.  Thanks so much.”

— Bekka —

“ It's now a piece I will wear for the rest of my life. ”

“Absolute stunning result!  I went with some diamonds sat doing nothing wanting a statement piece.  I got more than that.  The personal detail and design was beyond my expectations.  It's now a piece I will wear for the rest of my life.  I was dealt with professionally and Iain is a great guy who puts his experience in 100% I am still in awe walking round with a unique piece no one else has.  I highly recommend his work.”

How it works...

Book in for a no-obligation appointment with Iain and bring along your jewellery, or send across some images to us on info@iainhenderson.co.uk and we can take a look and discuss some design options with you.

Following on from your discussion with Iain, we can then get started on creating your initial CAD design for you to view and make any amendments at this point.

Once your CAD design has been finalised, and you are happy to proceed, we can begin the next stage of making your jewellery. This normally takes between 4 to 6 weeks, depending upon the request.

Frequently Asked Questions about Jewellery Remodelling

 
I have a few pieces of family heirloom jewellery, I’d like to make them into new piece, but I’m sure what?

We would advise, booking a no-obligation appointment here at the studio, bringing along your pieces of jewellery. You can relax in our plush, purpose-built studio, at a private appointment with Iain, discussing the possibilities of creating your own piece of unique jewellery.

I have a ring which is hollow underneath, and I’m having trouble with skin irritation, is there anything you can do?

Usually, rings which are hollowed out are not a solid piece of metal, water, soap and natural oils can get trapped behind them causing skin irritations.
We have solved this problem for many clients by creating an exact copy of their ring, cast as a solid piece of metal. Occasionally, we do change the metal type at this point, from 18ct white gold to platinum. There are two reasons for this, the first being that there will be no further need to rhodium plate platinum, and the second being that 18ct white gold,  in its natural state (i.e. when the plating has worn off), can cause skin irritations.

 

My old jewellery is looking out of shape and thin, can you help?

Yes, this is a popular jewellery remodelling service we offer.

Over time, stone settings/claws may start to look thin and jagged. These can be easily replaced.

With thinned, misshapen rings, there is a good possibility that we can replace the bottom half of the shank (lower section of the ring).

Sometimes, jewellery can be beyond economical repair, in which case, we would advise having it re-made. Recreating jewellery is achieved through our 3D CAD design service, replicating an exact, yet improved copy of your jewellery. Within the re-designing process, you can also adapt elements of the item you may no longer like; the colour of the metal, or the style of the design.

Once completed, you may collect it from our Studio or have it securely delivered to your desired location.

 

How long and how much does is cost to re-plate my ring?

Unlike the high street jewellers, we can rhodium plate white gold rings onsite, while you wait. It takes around 30 minutes to be completed. The cost to re-plate a ring starts from £65.00.

 

How much does it cost to re-size my ring?

This depends on how much the ring will need sizing by, and if it’s to be sized up or down. Sometimes we might need to add metal, which can cost more. Our prices for resizing start from £45.00.

 

What is the best way to clean my ring at home?

We advise our clients to use warm water with washing up liquid and a soft toothbrush (ideally a baby toothbrush) to clean your rings. Alternatively, we sell small Sonic Machines that perform a professional deep clean, for £95.00.

Contact The Studio to enquire or make a purchase.

Do you provide a precious metal exchange service?

If we can’t use your gold as part of the new design, we can weigh it in and get the cash value back for you. 

So, if you have any precious jewellery, please bring it with you to your appointment.
