Your repair or restoration can be done in our studio with state of the art laser welding technology. The resulting weld is considerably stronger than a traditional solder joint. Laser-welded connections are 260% stronger than solder and 95% as strong as the original metal. This technology ensures top quality work allowing our professional staff to accomplish sophisticated repairs not possible for many other jewelry stores.

The weld temperature is so localized that the work can be done right next to heat sensitive materials and stones. Laser technology has enabled jewel smiths to restore and repair vintage jewelry, create new modern jewelry and safely work on

 


Technology at its best for the most delicate of jewelry repairs


heat sensitive pieces. This versatile tool can repair and restore many delicate or worn items previously thought to be beyond repair.

Filigree, open work, or hand-engraved pieces can be repaired. Watch cases can be restored without removing the movement.

Estate and antique pieces can be restored without the need for polishing and disturbing the surface patina and without leaving signs of the restoration. The repair of estate and antique jewelry has been a very delicate and difficult operation for many jewelers without this new technology. Many of these jewelry repairs have been turned away, ruined or near impossible to repair or restore until now.

For repairs that must be completed in one visit, you can schedule an appointment.
