Transform your rings into a new piece of jewellery

Suzanne

Suzanne missed wearing a ring on her engagement ring finger after she divorced. She wanted to transform her wedding and engagement ring, as well as a ring she inherited from her Grandma.

The process of remodelling represented freedom and independence. She decided to have a fairly classic style ring, which didn't appear to look too much like an engagement ring.

Adele

Adele chose to have something completely different and opted for a more modern ring design that can one day be passed on to her daughter.

"Following my divorce, I still had my engagement ring and wedding ring that I loved, but didn't want to wear any more for obvious reasons! Ruth was able to help me work out what to do with them, and patiently teased out ideas that have resulted in combining them into the most beautiful new ring. It now represents me and my children, and I can wear it once again. I can't thank you enough, Ruth - you have created something that I will treasure forever." Adele

Sarah

You don't have to go for another ring though. You may decide you would prefer a completely different piece of jewellery, like Sarah who opted for a necklace.

The necklace design represents freedom, energy and vitality - all character traits she is proud to have passed on to her daughter. The sweeping shape gives a subtle to the shape of a bird's wings as it takes flight.
