Create your own bespoke pieces for a fraction of the UK cost by talking Turkey

Many couples are seeking out alternative ways of getting the rings they want for less money than they would have to pay in the UK.

By travelling to the popular holiday destination of Kalkan in Turkey, you can take out precious stones which you might have inherited and have them turned into intricate personal pieces.

Yardan Jewellery in the town is a specialist in this type of work. All Yardan’s pieces are lovingly created in the on site workshop and are personally designed for you.

Yardan says: “Anything is possible. You might have inherited a ring from your grandmother which just sits in your jewellery box because it is just not in a setting which you like. We can change it and make it into something which you will love.”

Depending on the intricacy of the design, as well as how much metal you can provide yourself, will dictate the cost of the work. As a guide it can cost as little as £200 to transform an unworn piece into a bespoke creation which is unique to you.

Yardan’s designs are also available online - visit www.yardanjewellery.com. If you are visiting Kalkan, it only takes Yardan between two and four days to make your jewellery.
