One day a man came into BC Custom Jewelry with one beautiful earring explaining that his wife was devastated that she lost the other one. The old pair of earrings were a gift from her grandmother who lived in Italy and gave them to her on her wedding day. She assumed that because they were custom made in Italy that she would never again be able to wear her grandmothers gift, and they meant so much to her.

The man proceeded to explain the situation and the fact that he didn’t expect much but wanted to know if our Artisan jewelry, Brian, could do anything. Brian explained to him that he could recreate the custom earring to match exactly and that he would clean and polish the old one to make it look new again.

This is something that good custom jewelers can do, recreate and match another item exactly. Brian made a mold from the old earring and proceeded to work his magic and recreate the missing earring.

Because the original was hand-made there are normally some inconsistencies but this adds to the fact that the pieces are original hand-made items. Brian made the new earring the same way the older one was made and it came out beautifully.

When the earrings were finished the man came in to see it with his wife. She actually cried when she found out what her husband had done for her, and when she saw what a beautiful job Brian had done recreating her missing earring.

This is what Brian loves to do create custom jewelry that brings a smile to your face or a tear to your eye.
