The jewellery we love most is the jewellery we wear most… and sometimes it breaks or wears down. At Arelana we repair and restore gold and diamond jewellery in our Barcelona atelier, with the same care we put into making it: respecting each piece's original detail.

What we repair

• Gold chains: soldering breaks, lengthening, reinforcing.
• Rings: resizing (up or down), repairing the band, polishing.
• Settings: resetting loose diamonds or stones, securing prongs.
• Clasps and safety catches on bracelets and necklaces.
• Professional cleaning and polishing to restore the shine.

Our approach: premium and careful

We work on gold and diamonds — not costume jewellery — with the delicacy a piece of value (sentimental or material) requires. We respect the original design: the idea isn't to "change it" but to bring it back to life as it was.

The process

1. Free valuation of your piece (at the atelier or by sending it in).
2. A fixed, transparent quote before we touch anything.
3. Artisan repair.
4. Delivery, with free shipping across mainland Spain.

Repair or transform?

Sometimes a heavily damaged piece — or one you no longer wear — makes more sense to transform into something new than to repair. We advise you honestly on what's best. (See transforming old or inherited jewellery.)

Frequently asked questions

Do you quote before repairing?
Always. We value the piece for free and give a fixed quote before starting.

Can I send my jewellery if I'm not in Barcelona?
Yes. We work with clients across Spain and tell you how to send it safely.

Do you repair any jewellery?
We specialise in gold and diamond jewellery. If it's costume jewellery, we'll tell you honestly.

Do you have gold sitting in a drawer — broken chains, unworn rings, single earrings — and don't know what to do with it? Instead of selling it by weight, you can turn it into a new piece you'll actually wear. At Arelana we melt your own gold to create a bespoke piece in our Barcelona workshop. (Part of our transforming old or inherited jewellery service.)

How it works

1. Free valuation: we check the purity (carats) and weight of your gold, and recover any diamonds or stones.
2. Design: we create the new piece with you (with a 3D render).
3. Melting and crafting: we melt the gold and work it by hand into the new piece.
4. Delivery with free shipping across mainland Spain.

Is all the gold reused?

Almost all. There's a small natural loss in melting and refining, and sometimes it's worth adding a little new gold for the chosen design. We explain everything transparently before starting: how much gold you have, how much is reused, and the final quote.

What you can create

A ring, a bracelet, a pendant, wedding bands… whatever you imagine. The gold from several old pieces can become one special new piece.

Frequently asked questions

Is my gold good enough quality?
We check it for free. We work with various purities and tell you what's possible with yours.

Can I combine gold from several pieces?
Yes, very common: we gather the gold from several pieces to create a new one.

And if there isn't enough for the piece I want?
We add the missing gold at the day's price, fully transparently.

The diamond isn't the only stone that moves us. Natural coloured gemstones — emerald, sapphire, ruby — give a piece character, colour and history. At Arelana we set them to measure in 18K gold, always natural and top quality. Here's their appeal.

Emerald

Intense green, a symbol of hope and renewal. It's a living stone, with its natural internal "garden" that makes it unique. Beautiful in rings and pendants, especially in yellow gold.

Sapphire

Though associated with deep blue, natural sapphire comes in many colours. It's very hard-wearing (ideal for daily use) and conveys serenity and loyalty. A timeless classic.

Ruby

Red par excellence, a symbol of passion and life. A rare, noble stone that brings warmth and presence. Spectacular as a centre stone.

Natural stones, always

As with diamonds, we work only with natural stones: they have soul, rarity and hold their value. Each one is different — and that's precisely their beauty.

Basic care

Coloured stones appreciate gentle handling: avoid knocks and chemicals, and an occasional professional clean (we do it at the atelier) keeps them radiant.

Frequently asked questions

Can they be worn daily?
Sapphire and ruby are very hard-wearing. Emerald is a little more delicate; we advise on the most protective setting.

Can I make an engagement ring with a coloured stone?
Yes, increasingly requested. (See coloured gemstone engagement rings.)

Are they natural stones?
Always natural and top quality.

Not every special ring is an engagement ring. A custom gold ring can be a gift, a treat, a keepsake, or simply your ring — the one you always wear. At Arelana we make them to measure in 18K gold, from your idea, in our Barcelona workshop.

Custom ring ideas

• Initial or name ring, engraved.
• Signet ring, classic or modern.
• Ring with a natural stone (a colour that represents you).
• Design ring created from your sketch.
• A ring with a hidden date or coordinates.
• A ring that reinterprets a piece you already have.

Real cases from our workshop

• A ring designed from the client's personal sketch.
• A ring with a stone the client already had, set to measure.
• A ring made by melting the gold of old pieces. (See transforming inherited jewellery.)

The process

Idea → 3D design → materials → handcrafting → delivery with free shipping across mainland Spain. Fixed quote before starting. (Part of our custom jewellery service.)

Frequently asked questions

Can I bring my own design?
Yes. With a drawing, a photo or even a description, we turn it into a real piece.

Is it good for a gift?
Perfect for a gift. A custom ring says far more than a shop-bought one.

How long does it take?
Usually 3–4 weeks from design approval.

Arelana is an artisan jewellery workshop in Barcelona. We're not a chain or a display of repeated pieces: we're an atelier where jewellery is designed with you and finished by hand, in solid 18K gold and with 100% natural, top-quality diamonds.

The craft

Every piece passes through hands, not just machines. We design, cut, set and polish with time-honoured technique and today's tools (including 3D design, so you see the piece before it's made). That care is what makes a piece last — and be enjoyed — for a lifetime.

What we do

• Custom engagement rings — solitaires and signature designs in natural diamond.
• Custom wedding rings — in 18K gold, your style.
• Transforming old or inherited jewellery — giving new life to your family's gold and diamonds.
• Repair and restoration — of gold and diamond jewellery, respecting the original detail.

How we work

1. You tell us your idea (at our Barcelona atelier, or by video call / WhatsApp).
2. We turn it into a design and a fixed quote.
3. We handcraft it.
4. You receive it with its certificate. Free shipping across mainland Spain.

Online and in person

You can visit the workshop or do it entirely remotely: we advise you, show you renders and ship the piece to your door. We serve Barcelona, Vilanova i la Geltrú and all of Spain.

Frequently asked questions

Can I order a piece without visiting the workshop?
Yes. Many clients do it 100% online, with video-call advice and free shipping.

What materials do you use?
Solid 18K gold and 100% natural, certified diamonds and stones.

Do you offer a no-obligation quote?
Always. Tell us your idea and we'll prepare a proposal with no commitment.
