Jewelry isn’t just about beauty—it carries memories, milestones, and meaning. At Gems of La Costa in Carlsbad, we’ve seen it all when it comes to jewelry repair. From heirloom pieces passed down through generations to engagement rings worn every day, damage and wear are inevitable. Knowing the most common repairs can help you protect your jewelry and address issues early.
Ring Resizing
Whether it’s due to weight changes or inheriting a cherished ring, resizing is one of the top services we provide. A proper fit isn’t just about comfort—it also prevents your ring from slipping off and getting lost. Our expert jewelers can resize gold, silver, platinum, and even intricate bands while preserving their original design.
Prong Re-Tipping and Stone Tightening
Prongs hold gemstones securely in place, but they can wear down over time. Loose prongs increase the risk of losing your precious stones. At Gems of La Costa, we re-tip worn prongs and tighten settings to keep your diamonds and gemstones safe.
Chain and Clasp Repairs
Delicate chains are prone to kinks, breaks, or weakened links. Clasps can also lose their spring and fail to close properly. We specialize in repairing and soldering chains, as well as replacing faulty clasps to ensure your necklaces and bracelets stay secure.
Jewelry Polishing and Refinishing
Everyday wear can cause scratches and dullness, especially on rings and bracelets. Our polishing services restore your jewelry’s shine, while refinishing can remove deep scratches and revive its original beauty.
Pearl and Bead Restringing
Over time, the threads holding pearls and beads can weaken or stretch. We offer professional restringing using high-quality silk thread, ensuring your strand remains strong and flexible.
Why Timely Repairs Matter
Ignoring small issues like a loose stone or a fraying chain can lead to costly or even irreversible damage. Regular inspections and quick repairs help keep your jewelry safe for everyday wear.
