Previous Restorations and Repairs
Please take some time to look at some of our previous restorations and repairs.
Worn Under Bezel Repair
This type of wear is common as a result of a wedding band rubbing against the ring for many years. Replacement of the worn area brings the ring back to new
Full Restoration
This ring is showing the sad signs of a lifetime's wear, and would be deemed a complete write-off by most. Even the Chrysoberyl Catseye is rubbed and damaged. Replacing the claws on the centres stone, building up the under-bezel and replacing half shank, along with re-tipping of the diamonds was all done in-house, and a trusted Lapidary took care of the chrysoberyl's re-polishing to make this ring look brand new again
Accident Restoration
This treasured family heirloom suffered horrendous damage when if fell of the wearer's finger on a dancefloor. The salvaged ring was painstakingly restored to get it back to it's former glory.
Underbezel repair
Another ring that's been worn away by a wedding ring, gets a new under-basket wire to make it good.
Cut Ring Repair
A ring cut from a finger in an emergency doesn't mean it's the end of life for the ring!
Complete Side Of Ring Restoration
This damage has been caused by a lifetime's wear of a harder metal wedding band next to it.
Accident Damage Repair
This ring was crushed and pulled apart from the finger. The client assumed a total loss, but we bought it back to new.
Lifetime Wear Restoration & Stone Loss
This ring had worn away and had reached the end of it's life. This repair wasn't the most economical for the ring, but it restored a cherished memory 60 years after it was first given as an engagement ring
