Repair
Though you wear your jewelry with care, perhaps you have experience with the following.
A beautiful piece of jewelry is created through the composition of delicate components. Even when you handle your jewelry carefully, at times they break.
- Pearl necklaces with a broken string or wire, or wire worn by age.
Though it depends on the frequency of use, strings should be replaced every 5 years and wires every 10 years.
- Rings that are misshapen or have loose stones
Rings can become misshapen by impact shocks, vibrations, or a strong force, and gemstones can become loose when the prongs are worn down by longtime use.
- Necklaces and bracelets with broken chains
These are stretched and broken when they become snagged and pulled by objects such as clothing and hair.
We also resize and clean rings, and restore jewelry.
Please feel free to inquire about any issues you may have.At Jewelry Salon Kikuya, we commence working on your jewelry once you understand how we can assist you.
We offer estimates for free.
A simple way to maintain jewelry
For rings, chain necklaces, and bracelets made of precious metals
(gold, platinum) only
- Place in lukewarm water with jewelry cleaner or neutral detergent, and wash gently with a soft brush. Thoroughly brush the underside of rings and the gaps in chains, as well.
- Be sure to use fresh water to rinse.
- Completely wipe away the moisture with a soft cloth.
For diamonds, rubies, sapphires, cat's-eyes, aquamarines, etc.
- Place in lukewarm water with jewelry cleaner or neutral detergent, and wash gently with a soft brush.
- Carefully brush the underside of the diamonds, as well.
- Be sure to use fresh water to rinse.
- Completely wipe away the moisture with a soft cloth.
For Pearls
Pearls are vulnerable to sweat and acids and are quite delicate. When you take them off, you should wipe them with a soft cloth that same day. When putting them away, be careful to arrange them so they don’t lay over or under other jewelry.
For Jewels susceptible to shocks
Wiping jewels with a soft cloth is sufficient. You must be particularly careful not to subject emeralds and paraiba tourmaline to impact shocks.
When stones of the same degree of hardness collide, both will be damaged, so you should ensure they are not in contact with one another when putting them away.
For Gemstones such as opals, turquoise, coral, and amber
Wiping jewels with a soft cloth is sufficient. When putting them away, wrap each one in a cloth or place each one in a small pouch, and ensure they are not in contact with one another.
