Are there any products or materials you can’t service?

We discourage using any mail-in repair service for heirloom jewelry or anything you deem to be irreplaceable. Our jewelry service is also only currently available for fine jewelry (pieces made of precious metals such as solid gold, platinum or silver).

We also cannot service items subject to a manufacturer's warranty.

Do you service costume jewelry?

Our jewelers service only fine jewelry, meaning jewelry that is solid sterling, gold or platinum. At this time, we do not service vermeil or gold-plated jewelry.

If you’re unsure of your jewelry’s metal, check it for a small engraving: sterling silver is marked .925, platinum is marked PT, and gold is marked with its karat (e.g., 14K). This marking is generally found on the inside of a ring band, the back or post of an earring, and somewhere near the clasp for a necklace or bracelet.
