Valuations

We offer a detailed valuation service, many insurance companies stipulate that valuations are updated at least every 5 years, please check your policy.

Appraisals

We can assess your jewellery and recommend any work that may be required - for example if a claw is loose we may suggest that it is simply tightened or if there is damage to the claw then for it to be replaced or retipped.

 

Testimonials

 

Compassionate and professional.

“Paul was compassionate and professional when I entrusted him with my late grandmothers wedding ring to alter for my own wedding. I felt Paul really understood how emotional this work would be and it was a superb alteration of an irreplaceable ring.”

Amazing surprise!

“My husband and Paul designed a beautiful necklace for me. They worked together on the design, choice of stone and setting. It was an amazing surprise! Paul has also cleaned and checked my vintage diamond engagement ring and did a fantastic job.”
