Pearl Cleaning, Restringing and Repair
By tradition, good quality pearl necklaces and bracelets are strung on silk thread. Silk is a lovely material but it's not steel wire and you can't moor boats with it. Over time it'll get grubby and stretch, opening up gaps between the pearls.
We provide a cleaning, restringing and repair service to keep your pearls in good condition and your necklace or bracelet looking like new.
Standard Service
First - we cut up the necklace or bracelet and string the pearls on a temporary strand. The strand is soaked in warm water to loosen and dissolve cosmetic residue. Then it's rinsed, wiped over with a clean soft cloth and left to dry.

If they need it, clasps and fittings are dipped in gold or silver jewellery cleaner to remove tarnish.

Your pearls are returned to you by Royal Mail special delivery. Materials and work are guaranteed for 6 months.

As for Standard, but every pearl is cleaned individually with special pearl wipes. This is best when the pearls are contaminated with, or have been damaged by cosmetics.

A pearl care kit is included to help keep your pearls in good condition until the next time.
