Three jobs come in most often: a ring that needs sizing, a repair, or a piece remade into something worn again.
Most first messages are about a ring that needs a different size or a piece that has stopped being worn.
Rings includes measuring the shank, quoting in writing, finishing and polishing. The listed scope excludes valuations for insurance or probate.
Repairs includes checking settings, replacing worn parts, cleaning before return. The listed scope excludes guaranteeing a stone that was already loose.
Remodelling includes sorting the stones, agreeing the new design, setting and finishing. The listed scope excludes supplying stones that have to be sourced elsewhere.
We talk through what you need, what is realistic and what it costs, so you can decide with the full picture in front of you.
How it works
Four steps, and nothing is cut before the quote is agreed.
01
The piece arrives by hand or by post, and the stones are counted and noted.
02
What is needed is written down with a price and an honest indication of time.
03
The bench work is done, with the stones counted again before finishing.
04
The piece is cleaned, checked and returned with the old mount if wanted.

Every job is examined, quoted in writing and agreed before any cut is made, which is why nothing arrives back as a surprise.
A clear price at the beginning saves an argument at the end. Photographs help, especially for clasps and settings.

Before you ask
Questions that come up before a piece is left with us.
Send the ring for measurement, or use a jeweller local to you, as guessing costs you a second resize.
No; valuations for insurance or probate are outside what this workshop does.
They are counted and noted at intake and again at collection.
Yes, and the old mount is returned to you if you would like it kept.
Tell us the address and what you want done. We will reply with availability and a clear figure.
