When it comes to repurposing jewellery in a new design, there are several elements that can be reused to create a unique and sentimental piece. One of the most common elements that can be repurposed is the precious metal. Gold is commonly melted down and reshaped to create new designs, while still retaining the sentimental value of the original piece. Additionally, any diamonds or gemstones that are in good condition can be removed from the old piece and incorporated into the new design.
