Ring sizing
Up or down, in gold, silver or platinum. Rings with stones all the way around, or with a worn-through shank, take more work — we'll show you what's involved before starting.
Jewelry repair
Repairs done here,
not shipped somewhere else
A bench jeweler, a torch and a set of tools in the back of the shop. That's the difference between a week and a month.
What comes across the counter
The everyday repairs
Chains & clasps
Snapped links soldered, worn spring rings swapped for lobster clasps, and thin sections reinforced before they break again in the same spot.
Stones & prongs
If a stone moves when you tap it, it's on its way out. We retip worn prongs, rebuild heads, and reset stones that have already gone loose.
Pearls & beads
Restrung on silk and knotted between each pearl, so a broken strand costs you one pearl instead of forty.
Watches
Batteries, band sizing, pin and link replacement, and pressure-tested seals on water-resistant cases. Most of it while you wait.
Cleaning & refinishing
Ultrasonic cleaning, polishing, rhodium plating for white gold that has gone yellow, and re-finishing brushed or matte surfaces.
Hand engraving
Dates, initials, a short line inside a band, or a monogram on a locket. Done here, so a last-minute addition doesn't cost you two weeks.
Appraisals
Written appraisals for insurance, estates and division of property. Your piece is examined, measured and documented here — it never leaves the shop.
The bigger jobs
When a piece needs more than a fix
Some things arrive past the point of a simple repair — a ring worn paper-thin, a bracelet that's broken in the same place three times, an antique with parts that aren't made anymore.
- Shank replacement and full ring rebuilds
- Antique and estate restoration, matching the original style
- Fabricating a replacement part by hand when nothing off the shelf fits
- Converting a piece you never wear into one you will
We'll always tell you when a repair costs more than the piece is worth. Sometimes the honest answer is to leave it alone.
How it works
No surprises on the ticket
- Look first. Bring the piece in and we'll examine it under the loupe with you standing there.
- Price before work. You get the number up front. Nothing starts until you say go.
- A real timeline. Simple jobs are often done within the week. Bigger ones get a date, not a shrug.
- Checked before pickup. Every piece is cleaned and gone over again before it goes back in your hand.
