JEWELLERY RESTORATION
What is jewellery restoration?
Restoration is the process undertaken when a damaged or neglected piece of
jewellery isput back to
its original condition.
To protect the value of any piece of jewellery, restoration work must be
performed by a qualified goldsmith. Our goldsmiths are among the most highly
skilled and well-trained goldsmiths in Western Canada.
Restoring cherished keepsakes is one of the
professional services
we provide at Diamonds of Detroit.
How to tell if your jewellery is in need of restoration:
- Broken or worn areas
- Worn or missing gems?
- Gems loose, may mean the tips holding them in place are worn
- Jewellery not fitting correctly
Regular cleaning & inspection by our trained associates will help reduce the
risk of loss & further wear of your cherished keepsakes.
What we do when you bring your jewellery in for restoration:
Our trained sales associates examine every piece under 10x power magnification.
This helps us determine the condition of the jewellery as well as give us enough
information to make an informed recommendation as to the best way to repair your
jewellery.
What we look for:
Damage can be due to 3 factors; wear, accident or defect. Our associates are
trained to be able to determine
the
cause of the damage.
By knowing this we can assess if repairs are necessary and who is responsible.
On more complex restoration or repair issues, we like to have our goldsmiths
examine the piece and give an estimate on the cost. All of our estimates are
done free of charge.
Remember...any repair is possible!
