My Journey into the jewelry business
My Introduction to Quality Jewelry
My name is Levi, and I’m the founder of Luxury Restored, a jewelry restoration and resale business focused on authentic luxury pieces — with a special emphasis on designer brand jewelry. My introduction to high quality jewelry began unexpectedly in 2007 while attending a birthday party as a teenager. As gifts were being opened, one stood out — a small blue box tied with a white ribbon. Inside was a silver heart tag bracelet, and I remember hearing someone say, “It’s Tiffany.” That moment introduced me to a brand known for craftsmanship, design, and lasting value.
The Start to My Business Journey
Several years later, that early memory came back in a meaningful way. My father, who enjoyed yard-sale treasure hunting, brought home a Tiffany & Co. bracelet he had purchased with the intention of selling it for scrap silver. Recognizing the brand name, I asked if I could try selling it online instead. At the time, I was already selling various items on eBay. The bracelet — a Tiffany & Co. 1837 Extra Wide Cuff — sold for significantly more than its silver value, revealing the strong demand for authentic designer jewelry. That experience sparked what would become a long-term passion for sourcing and reselling quality jewelry. Over time, I began focusing on authentic Tiffany pieces, along with Native American jewelry, vintage designs, and distinctive finds from independent and lesser-known brands. Today, Luxury Restored is built on the idea that beautiful jewelry can have more than one life. Each piece is carefully selected for authenticity, craftsmanship, and character, giving customers the opportunity to own meaningful jewelry with history and lasting value.
