If the project requires technical problem-solving, precision engineering, or involves irreplaceable family stones—we're the right workshop.
Heirloom Engagement Ring — Complete Structural Redesign
Challenge: Vintage ring with worn prongs, high setting profile causing daily snags, and family stones at risk. Client wanted modern aesthetics with maximum protection for daily wear.
Solution: Full CAD redesign with low-profile geometry, reinforced prong structure, and original metal reuse. Protective setting engineering balanced sparkle with durability.
Two Rings Unified: Halo Engagement Ring from Wedding Band & Original Ring
Challenge: Client wanted to transform her existing engagement ring and wedding band into a single, modern halo design—preserving both pieces' sentimental value while creating something completely new she'd love to wear daily.
Solution: CAD engineering to integrate both rings' metal and stones into unified halo design. We incorporated the wedding band's diamonds into the halo surround, reset the center stone, and created a cohesive piece that honors both original rings while delivering contemporary aesthetics.
Two Wedding Bands Unified into Wearable Keepsake
Challenge: Client wanted to honor her husband wedding bands in a single piece that could be worn daily.
Solution: Design allowing smaller band to rotate freely within larger band—elegant kinetic memorial combining both rings into one cohesive pendant.
Lost Ring Recreated from Photo Reference
Challenge: Client's irreplaceable ring lost during travel—only reference was a single photo.
Solution: CAD modeling from photo analysis to match proportions, stone placement, and design details. Precision casting and finishing to recreate original.

Heirloom Transformation & Technical Engineering FAQs
How do you protect fragile family stones during redesign?
We begin with structural assessment—examining each stone for chips, fractures, and secure seating. Intake includes photo documentation, stone counts, and weight verification. Throughout production, we maintain insured chain-of-custody and use protective setting techniques (bezels, reinforced prongs, low-profile heads). Graduate Gemologist oversight ensures every heirloom receives appropriate handling protocols. Optional video updates document critical setting stages.
Can you handle complex engineering like contour bands and east-west resets?
Yes—this is core to our expertise. We use CAD modeling to engineer precise contour matches, east-west orientations with balanced geometry, and custom fit solutions for asymmetric designs. Our 3D visualization lets you see photorealistic previews before production, ensuring the final piece matches your vision and fits perfectly.
What makes Farsi different from other jewelers for heirloom work?
Three key factors: (1) In-house bench jewelers with GIA oversight—no outsourcing means complete quality control and chain-of-custody, (2) CAD engineering capabilities for complex geometry that most jewelers can't handle, and (3) 28+ years of problem-solving experience with technically demanding projects. We handle what other jewelers consider too risky or complicated.
Do you work with antique settings and vintage jewelry?
Absolutely. We specialize in preserving vintage metalwork while reinforcing structural weaknesses—worn prongs, eroded galleries, stressed shanks. We can match historical styles through CAD recreation or modernize while maintaining sentimental elements. Every antique piece receives structural assessment before redesign recommendations.
What are typical timelines? Do you offer rush service?
Most heirloom transformations require 2–4 weeks depending on complexity. We offer rush/urgent service for proposals, anniversaries, and travel deadlines—including same-day technical consultations. Complex engineering projects (contour bands, multi-stone consolidations) may require additional time. Call or text for project-specific timeline estimates.
Can you combine multiple small family diamonds into one piece?
Yes—this is a common request. Popular options include cluster rings that unify stones into cohesive designs, diamond bands with graduated sizing, and pendants that showcase multiple stones in balanced arrangements. We assess each stone's condition and create CAD designs showing various layout options before production.
Do you provide updated appraisals after redesign?
Yes—we offer post-redesign appraisal bundles so your insurance reflects current design, materials, and replacement values. We also provide guidance on scheduling with your insurer to ensure proper coverage documentation.
What if my project seems impossible or too risky?
Text us a photo—we'll provide honest assessment of feasibility, risks, and realistic expectations. We've successfully completed projects other jewelers declined, including fragile antique settings, challenging stone orientations, and complex structural rebuilds. If we determine a project carries unacceptable risk, we'll explain why and suggest alternatives.
