Diamond and Gemstone Repair

Fine jewelry with loose, cracked, or missing stones, broken chains, or heavily tarnished metal may end up relegated to the bottom of the jewelry box and forgotten, not in wearable condition but too precious to toss. If this happened to any of your fine jewelry, bring it in to Grono and Christie Jewelers for world-class jewelry repair. Our in-house team of experienced jewelers can remove certain damage from gemstones, retip the prongs holding gemstones in place, or reset and replace loose or missing stones, helping return your beloved jewelry to an upgraded state, ready to be worn again.

Tidy Up Your Jewels

Well-loved jewelry often needs a deep yet gentle cleaning to get the dust of use out of the cracks to make it shine like new again. Depending on the piece, most jewelry can use a polish every one to three years. Rings with heavy use and durable stones, such as diamond engagement rings or wedding bands, may need to be cleaned every six months to a year. Earrings are likely to get spritzed and sprayed accidentally with hairspray or perfume that will build up surface residue and bacteria should be brought in yearly depending on use. Consider setting a standing appointment to clean your jewelry annually; the upkeep will be worth the rewards when you jewelry still looks good as new fifty years later.

Reset the Clock on your Jewelry

Fine jewelry is more versatile and customizable than generally known. Upgrading to a new engagement band but keeping the same brilliant diamond or replacing a cloudy sapphire with a clearer one are just two examples of how you can upgrade your jewelry by resetting your stones. By working with a knowledgeable jeweler and a beautiful selection of varying gemstones and settings, it's easy to enhance your fine jewelry. Modernizing old pieces, adding new details, and replacing gemstones make your old or inherited jewelry more wearable, giving you more enjoyment while maintaining what matters to you most.

Repairs Require Trust and Expertise

When entrusting your precious jewelry and family heirlooms to a jeweler, it's important to choose a jeweler with a stellar reputation for professionalism and expertise. Fine jewelry is easy to scratch, dent, or harm if repair tools are not used properly, devaluing the jewelry and damaging your pieces. Avoid negative experiences altogether by entrusting your diamonds, pearls, and more to a local independent jewelry store. Local jewelers are invested in their customers much more than chain jewelers and seek to ensure every customer has a positive experience. Draw on the years of trust and expertise at Grono and Christie Jewelers for all your jewelry repair needs.
