Repairs
Does your jewellery need repair?
Is your chain broken or need a new clasp?
Are the claws or setting on your engagement, wedding or dress ring wearing away and the diamonds or gemstones are loose or fallen out or about to?
Many people don’t realise that gold is a soft metal and wears away with use.
Does your ring no longer fit and need to be resized bigger or smaller?
Maybe you just want your jewellery checked and cleaned?
Penelope can fix all these things and your jewellery will be able to be worn again and look great.

This engagement ring lost one small diamond because the gold was wearing away around the edges of the setting.
A new top was added and the stones reset and the ring resized.
She can now wear and enjoy the ring knowing the stones will not fall out.

This 9ct yellow gold and Smokey Quartz dress ring has a broken under-rail near the claw on the left and the stone has popped out.
I repaired the under-rail and polished the ring then reset the stone.
Ring looks good and can now be worn.

The rivet holding the pin in place on this brooch had come out.
I put in a new rivet and the pin now works and the brooch can be worn.

The claws on the engagement ring on the right have worn down and the one closest has broken off at the top. On the left the same engagement ring has been re-tipped and will now last a long time and she will not loose the diamond.
I made this wedding ring about 14 years ago.
Unfortunately the owners daughter tried it on but it was too small and had to be cut off by the fire brigade.
Ring was mangled but with a lot of time and love the ring is now back to new.
