Jewellery & Silverware Repairs                                                  

All our estimates on repairs or insurance claims are free of charge.

Our workshop has had many years of experience in carrying out a variety of repairs from soldering, ring sizing and re-tipping claws to stone replacements and full restoration work. They specialise in all types of antique, vintage and new jewellery.
We also offer a re-threading service for pearl necklaces and bracelets, and have a very skilled Silversmith who can deal with anything from polishing out scratches and removing salt marks to restoring antique silverware and re-plating canteens.

Please get in touch if you would like a quote or advice on a piece of jewellery via email or telephone. You are also always welcome to visit our shop.

 

Watch Repairs                                                                   

Our skilled watchmaker is able to carry out various repairs from a glass replacement to a full service.

We also offer an in-house battery replacement and watch strap service, although we do not have the re-sealing facilities to guarantee any watch to be water resistant on watch battery replacements.

 

Engraving/Seal Engraving   

                                                      

We have many years of experience in supplying and engraving signet rings with family crests and mottos.

Crests can also be engraved onto cufflinks, tankards, napkin rings, salvers and wine coasters to name but a few.

We can also arrange engraving on most items of gold, silver and pewter.  Here are some examples of styles above.

Please email or telephone us if you would like to know how long the engraving will take or how much it will cost as it does vary depending on what the item is etc.
