Polishing and Refinishing Services

Necklaces, rings, earrings, and bracelets are worn frequently in close contact with skin and receive accidental bumps and grazes that dull the shiny finish. Antiques with a patina may look dirty instead of old from years of accumulation. Sterling silver tarnishes easily. But your fine jewelry can be made to look like new again with a simple polishing. We'll buff out scratches, clean out crevices, and give your gold, silver, diamond, and gemstone jewelry the new life it deserves with our refinishing services. Whether your fine jewelry lost its shine from years of use or decades of disuse, we can bring back the shine in your metals and gemstones to look like you bought it just yesterday.

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 Don's Jewelry & Design for all your jewelry repair needs.

A (New) String of Pearls

Even the most beautiful string of pearls will need to be restrung from time to time - as the necklace is worn, the pearls work with gravity to stretch the cord. When you start to see the unknotted string in your pearls, it's time to bring it in to be restrung. Pearls are strung on thin silk cord that breaks easily after a year or more of use. If you wear your pearls often, they should be restrung yearly; with less frequent wear they can last up to three years before the silk string starts to discolor and weaken. Prevent any unfortunate loss of pearls by being proactive in your jewelry care and set a yearly appointment with your jeweler to take care of your pearls and all your fine jewelry.
