Recreations

A growing area of Black Orchid’s business is the reconfiguration of damaged jewelry and estate jewelry into new creations. Over the years, many of our customers have commented that they have a stray earring, broken jewelry or an inherited piece that is not to their taste just sitting in a jewelry box.  The earring is saved because they just may find the mate…someday.  The broken item can be repaired… someday.  And while there may be some sentimental or emotional attachment to an inherited piece, because they do not particular like it, they never wear it.

Let us help you to re-imagine and re-create your old and/or broken jewelry into a stunning piece that you will love to wear!
