I just HAD to share this sweet note that was written to me. If you check out our “restored pieces” section on our blog, you will see a strand of pearls that we reworked.  I was presented with a broken strand that had about 10″ worth of pearls to work with, and I mixed the pearls with sterling silver and Swarovski crystals to ensure that there was enough to make both a necklace and a pair of earrings.  I knew that the woman’s mother had passed away, and that she wanted to wear her mother’s pearls. That is all I knew, but when I received the following note, it truly brought tears to my eyes!!  It was a privilege and joy to be a part of the process of bringing beauty back.

Recently we had the privilege of reworking a necklace that was more than sentimental to a special friend of ours. The necklace was broken, yet it had belonged to her mother.  There was only about 10″ worth of pearls left, so we added strategically placed Swarovski crystals and sterling silver beads to make a necklace that was long enough to showcase the family pearls along with an adorable matching pair of earrings.

The restoration and restringing of pieces varies in price at The Bauble Market, yet it is very economical since we are working with beads that are provided by the customer.  It is such a joy to us to be able to take a meaningful yet unusable piece of jewelry and reconstruct it into an heirloom that will be enjoyed for years and years.

The pearl beads were provided by our customer, and we added the sterling silver beads and Swarovski crystals to lengthen the necklace and ensure there were enough beads for earrings. 

If you have some pieces that are relegated to your jewelry box because they are unusable and/or broken,  just call (434-851-2224) or email (info@baublemarket) us. We would love to give your pieces a new lease on life!
