We specialize in transforming cherished family pieces into modern jewelry you'll actually wear! Whether it's grandmother's cocktail ring becoming your everyday necklace or dad's class ring becoming your new favorite earrings, we help breathe new life into pieces that have been hidden in jewelry boxes. Since 2008, we've reimagined over 1,000 family heirlooms into modern treasures that tell unique stories.

Heirloom transformations are our FAVORITE. We love taking pieces that hold meaning and transforming them into something you'll wear and love for years to come. No heirlooms? No problem! It's not too late to create one to pass down - future generations will thank you! Find out about this joyful experience here

It's our custom appointment where we collaborate on transforming your jewelry. Think of it as dreaming together - we'll explore your vision, share design ideas for modernizing your family jewelry, and help you reimagine your treasures into wearable art. You can book an in-person visit to our magical Orlando studio or connect with us virtually from anywhere. Book Your Sparkle Session

Our process has three beautiful stages:

1. Collaborate - Bring in your heirlooms and let's dream together during your Sparkle Session
2. Create - We'll spend the first couple weeks exploring your vision and sharing design ideas, define a budget that fits your needs, then bring your story to life as we transform your vintage pieces
3. Celebrate - Your finished piece perfectly blends your family history with modern style, making it beautifully wearable for generations to come

Your custom jewelry transformation takes 1-8 weeks, depending on the design's complexity. We keep you updated and involved throughout your redesign journey so you're part of the magic every step of the way.

We believe weddings are for wearing your story. We believe your past can still be fashion forward! We believe you want more than sparkle. You want sparkle with soul. That's the long answer. The short answer is YES! Many brides transform family rings into their wedding jewelry, creating something uniquely theirs while honoring family traditions. See details about wedding jewelry here

Absolutely! One of our specialties is taking multiple family pieces and combining them into one stunning design. As one happy client said, "Each of these original rings had so much meaning to me and people in my family. It brings me such joy to have these stones reimagined and worn regularly instead of hidden at the bottom of a jewelry box!"

Never! Transformation actually adds meaning. We can preserve engravings, use every stone, and even incorporate metal from the original piece. As we often say, the memory doesn't live in an outdated setting - it lives in the love. Your grandmother's diamonds worn daily in a design that fits your life keeps her close every single day.

Ansley (our founder and Chief Creative Officer) and Sarah (our production manager) create all the pieces in house at our Orlando studio. Everything is handcrafted with love - you can actually watch us work if you visit! Our beaded chain is hand made by artisans in Madagascar who we've partnered with for years.

Dora Mae was Ansley's grandmother and one of the most joyfully creative humans she's ever known. Ansley's journey began with wanting to honor pieces from her grandmother Dora Mae's collection while making them wearable for today. That spirit of honoring the past while celebrating the present lives in every piece we create. Find out more about her story here

We handcraft both custom and ready-to-wear jewelry collections for the fashion-forward woman who celebrates the past. Our jewelry has deep MEANING and even deeper MAGIC. The meaning comes from connecting with family history and sharing those stories, and there's so much magic in breathing new life and current style into outdated heirlooms and seeing them sparkle for the next generation.

We sure do! Our Orlando studio is where all the magic happens. It's colorful, joyful, and the perfect place to explore your transformation possibilities in person. Take a virtual tour!

Yes! We offer Virtual Sparkle Sessions so you can connect with us from anywhere to discuss your transformation dreams. Many clients love this option, especially when working with inherited pieces from out of state. Schedule Virtual Meeting
