Tarnished or Discolored Jewelry

• Jewelry can become tarnished or discolored over
  time due to exposure to air, water, and chemicals.

• Look for a dull, cloudy, or yellow appearance on
  gold, silver, or other metal jewelry pieces.

• Discoloration may also occur around the clasps or
  settings, indicating an issue with the metal.

Loose Stones or Settings

Loose Settings
Professional Inspection
If the stones in your jewelry feel loose or
wiggle, it's a sign they may be about to fall
out. This can happen over time as the settings
wear down.
Prongs or other settings holding the stones in
place can become loose, causing the stones to
become unstable and at risk of falling out.
It's best to have your jewelry professionally
inspected if you notice any loose stones or
settings. A jeweler can properly diagnose and
repair the issue.
5
Broken Clasps or Chains
When the clasp or chain on your jewelry breaks,
it can be a frustrating experience. This common
issue is often caused by regular wear and tear
over time, weakening the metal. A broken clasp or
chain can cause your cherished piece to fall off
and become lost.
Professional jewelry repair services can
carefully fix or replace these essential
components, restoring the functionality and
beauty of your jewelry.

Worn Down Prongs
Loose Stones
Exposed Settings
Worn down prongs can no longer securely hold the
stones in place, causing them to become loose or
even fall out entirely.
With the prongs worn down, the metal settings
holding the stones will become exposed, putting
the jewelry at risk of further damage.
Snagging Hazard
Worn prongs can catch on fabrics and snag,
potentially ripping the clothing or causing
injury to the wearer.

Professional Repair
Proper Care
Jewelry can become bent or misshapen due to
impacts, excessive pressure, or poor storage
conditions over time. This can happen to rings,
pendants, earrings, and other jewelry pieces.
Storing jewelry properly in soft pouches or boxes
can help prevent bending and distortion over
time. Avoiding impact and excessive pressure is
also key.
Bent or misshapen jewelry may no longer fit
properly, causing discomfort or the risk of
losing stones. It can also affect the aesthetics
and overall appeal of the piece.
Jewelry repair experts can carefully reshape and
restore bent or misshapen jewelry, bringing it
back to its original form and condition.
8
Damaged or Missing Engraving
Over time, the delicate engravings on your
jewelry can become worn down, faded, or even
disappear entirely. This not only detracts from
the aesthetic appeal, but can also diminish the
sentimental value of personalized pieces.
Jewelry repair services can carefully restore
damaged engravings or recreate missing ones,
bringing your cherished items back to their
former glory.
