Getting a Repair
Can I send jewellery to you by post?
Yes. Complete our postal repair form first and we will provide the appropriate instructions.
Can you quote from a photograph?
Photographs can help us understand the repair, but some jewellery needs to be physically inspected before the work and final price can be confirmed.

How do I get my jewellery repaired?
You can book an appointment to visit the workshop or start a postal repair online.
I don't know what repair I need. What should I do?
Send us photographs or book an appointment. You do not need to diagnose the problem yourself.
What happens before you start work?
The jewellery is assessed and the repair is confirmed before authorised work proceeds.
Quotes, Timing and Care
Can I send you a photo first?
