repair, restore, recycle

Rather than purchasing a brand new piece of jewelry, a great way to go a little green is to restore a worn piece of jewelry that you already own. Go ahead, pull an item out of that scary little drawer filled with broken rings, twisted earrings and that sorry, tangled mess of necklaces that just keeps growing and growing. Often all it takes is a thorough clean, polish and steam and voila...that favorite piece is restored back to its original grandeur. If, however, restoration just won't suffice and you're in need of repair as such ring resizing, re-tipping of pendant or ring prongs, chain repair, stone resetting or whatever...no problem, we do it all at the circle studio.

But what if you own a piece of jewelry that is beyond repair or restoration (or carries with it a little un-wanted emotional baggage), try removing the stones and recycling them into a new piece. Perhaps the small diamonds from an unworn ring, say, would make nice earrings for your daughter, a center stone might even work in a pendant for your Mom or sister, or try resetting the diamonds from an impractically designed ring into a clean, modern band for yourself. The possibilities are endless, so if you have ideas for a piece of jewelry or perhaps you've seen an item right here on circlejewelry.com into which you'd like to incorporate your own stones, please let us know, we'd only be too happy to accommodate. Dig that jewelry out of that drawer and repair, restore or recycle; believe me...you'll love giving those forgotten jewelry pieces a new life.

If you have any questions regarding restoration, gem recycling or you'd like a current repair price-list just email
info@circlejewelry.com

inside the green circle

After spending time over the weekend watching the Sundance Channel's great new show Big Ideas for a Small Planet, I've become even more focussed on keeping circle as green as possible.
I have always been careful to use reusable jewelry containers and our packaging and shipping materials are mostly made of biodegradable/recycled/recyclable materials, we are also shifting from printed, paper catalogs sent through the mail to a primarily web-based business...but what else can we do?

With this in mind, over the next few months I'll be posting some new ideas, new designs, and new ways of thinking about jewelry and its many purposes.

please email info@circlejewelry.com

with suggestions, ideas, or questions...
your input would (as always) be greatly appreciated.
