id you once used to wear exclusively yellow D gold jewelry? Maybe at some point, you decided that you preferred to wear silver, white

gold or platinum pieces. Perhaps more recently, you’ve changed again and gone back to yellow gold! It’s to be expected that trends and tastes in jewelry change over time. What that means is that the jewelry pieces which don’t see the light of day in your jewelry box could be enjoyed by somebody else and shine again.

Ingrid Westlake FGA, DGA Leo Hamel Jewelry & Gold Buyer

Sometimes jewelry in good condition just needs to find a new home to be worn again. Sometimes a little modification here and there makes it more wearable. Check out the pretty brooch a client brought me one day. She found she was never wearing it. With a little magic from our Master Jewelers, we transformed it into a beautiful pair of earrings which is so much more wearable!

Come and see us at Leo Hamel Jewelry & Gold Buyers and together we can explore your options!
