Transforming Heirloom Rings: Blending Family Histories into One Stunning Design 💍

  • Join me as we embark on a journey to transform two cherished heirloom rings into a stunning new design! 💍✨ A woman brought me two incredibly sentimental rings, each with a rich history dating back to the early 1900s. One ring belonged to her father's mother, a wide yellow gold band with worn-out engravings, and the other was her mother's mother's classic three-stone diamond engagement ring.
    In this video, I’ll show you step-by-step how we combined these vintage treasures into one beautiful, timeless ring. From deep cleaning the rings to reinforcing and resizing, and finally setting the diamonds into their new home, this project honors the legacy of her grandmothers while creating a wearable piece for daily enjoyment.
    But that’s not all! I also worked on transforming her original engagement ring and wedding band into a modern fashion ring with a hidden halo design.
    Discover how we blend family histories into a single, stunning piece that will be cherished for generations to come.

    Zach, you saved my grandmother's diamond! My grandmother took me along when she went ring shopping when I was 3. It's my first memory. She bought a diamond after saving for years. When she passed the ring was gifted to me. I watched your videos and learned that I needed to get the prongs checked. After 14 years I had never had them looked at! The jeweler said the diamond was about to fall out! Thank you!!

      Where are you located? My son just got engaged and wants to have my wedding set remade for his fiancée. My husband passed away four years ago. This way his dad is still part of this most special time.

    I absolutely love the reset diamonds in the wide band. If I could find my wedding and engagement rings, I would have you blend it with my mother's ring. I have so many missing rings. I either misplaced them trying to hide them from caregivers, or a caregiver stole them. God always seams to bless me good. Who knows what the future holds ❤🕊️

    My grandmother's engagement ring, from the 1940's, was exactly like that, it just didn't have the side accent diamonds. I inherited it from her, unfortunately, an ex of mine had a drug problem I didn't know about and stole it. Still breaks my heart thinking about it. You did an incredible job as usual.

    This is so beautiful. I was very worried the end result would be too contemporary and lose the beauty of the original pieces, but this is truly a perfect combination. The ring looks amazing. Personally, I love antique rings. Their beauty is unparalleled.

    I am surprised that you didn't re-"millgrain" (?) the large ring to make the original pattern show up again. It looked like it had some kind of Native American influence to the design.
    Question - on the wide ring that you put around the sleeve: did you close up the gap somehow? Or did that gap kind if ease into the sleeve and look smoothly united?

    This is a true story although it's my best friend's story but she wrote her grandmother's diamond ring for years after she died and one day she looked down and the main diamond was gone.... She looked a bit but figured she'd never find it cause she'd didn't even know where or when she had lost it.... She was bummed but got over it and her hubby had the ring restored with another diamond as a gift . welp if I tell you that almost five months later she was grabbing the mail and I guess that day the sun was in the right spot cause she saw something gleam in the box and she reached in and felt around the edges and her diamond was in the back corner of the box.... Unbelievable 😂😂😂
