We are able to offer a full jewellery repair service. From basic chain repairs, replacement catches, ring sizing, up to complete restoration of old and worn out jewellery, including re-tipping of claws and stone replacement.
We are also able to offer a stone re-mounting service, which is useful if a piece has worn beyond the point where we are able to restore it.
90% of the the work is carried out on site, in our fully equipped workshop. And for the other 10% of work which we are not able to carry out on site, we use trusted and reliable out-workers based in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter. Your Jewellery is fully insured from the minute you leave it with us until the minute you collect it, whether it is being worked on here in the shop, in transit, or being worked on by an out-worker.
We are happy to advise on any repair query you may have and we can give a no obligation quote for any work required.

In white or colourless diamonds, colour is universally graded using an alphabetical scale from D to z with D being the highest grade.
Diamonds and other gemstones are weighed in metric carats. One carat is 0.2 grams and a carat is split further into 100 points (a diamond weighing 50 points is a half carat diamond).
The quality of the cut of a diamond is important, because it dictates a diamond’s fire, sparkle and brilliance. A standard round brilliant cut will have 57 facets and how these facets relate to each other will determine how the light will pass through the diamond. The scale for the quality of the cut goes through Excellent, being the highest grade, Very good, Good, Fair or Poor.
Diamonds are formed under extreme heat and pressure deep inside the earth and often display internal inclusions or external blemishes.
