Alterations and Repair

Alterations

Have you ever thought about remodelling your old jewellery? Not only can you dispose of great aunt's dreadful stuff lying in the drawer - which you'll never wear - we can re-use it to make something you'll really love. Even great-aunt would be delighted to see her old jewellery transformed into something you will wear and enjoy. And you'll feel extra smug for recycling!

Repairs and other services

Here's some examples of what we can do for you, right here on the premises:

  • Ring re-sizing in 9ct, 14ct, 18ct, yellow, white and rose gold, platinum and palladium
  • Clean and check service
  • Re-tipping worn claws
  • Tightening loose stones
  • Resetting stones
  • Replacing missing stones
  • Supplying new shanks and settings to rings once they get too worn to repair
  • Chain repairs
  • Shortening chains and bracelets
  • Watch batteries and watch bracelet alterations
  • Valuations for insurance and probate
  • Stone and metal identification
  • We buy in old and broken gold jewellery and watches, at very competative prices

We normally work on 7 day timescale for routine repairs, however we try to accommodate any requests for repairs needed in a hurry! Please call in advance so we can set aside a space in the work schedule.

We also undertake pearl and bead restringing and engraving.
 
In addition to all of this, and never ones' to be anywhere but ahead of the game, we have recently branched out and now undertake jewellery repairs requiring laser soldering. This machine process removes all heat required to bond precious metal, while greatly reducing the risk of damage to sensitive and fragile stones. 

In fact, we can fix almost about anything - just ask!
