How to Find the Best Custom Jewellery Repair Shop
Your custom jewellery pieces are one-of-a-kind and having them professionally cleaned and repaired is the best way to preserve their beauty and protect your investment. At Odyssey Jewellery Designers Inc., we’re very proud of the reputation we’ve earned for being the most trusted jewellery repair shop in Richmond Hill, Markham, Vaughan, throughout the Toronto region. Throughout our 60-year history, we have repaired a wide range of custom jewellery pieces and we bring this knowledge to every repair job we do.
Every jewellery item is unique, and your piece’s design and materials will dictate the care and maintenance required to keep them pristine. Generally, jewellery made with harder and higher-grade materials will require less ongoing maintenance than those made of lesser-quality material. Purchasing jewellery is an investment and like a car or house, you should research the costs associated with proper maintenance in advance. Higher-end diamonds and platinum will generally require less care than their lower-grade counterparts.
Inspect your jewellery before wearing it, you’ll want to check for both damage and loose stones. Any loose stones need to be repaired right away, as they can easily fall out without the proper care. We find that many people rarely take off their rings, it’s important to regularly remove your ring from your finger and do a quick visual inspection to ensure the ring fits properly. Damages to the structure of your jewellery can also worsen when not dealt with by a professional jewellery repairer. Adjustments to a ring’s size can be done quickly at an affordable price.
Removing your jewellery for activities such as swimming, working out, cleaning, and doing yard work can also help protect your jewellery. It can be a simple habit that will improve the condition of your jewellery and may even prevent you from losing it.
We recommend that you have your jewellery cleaned every six months. There are various commercial jewellery cleaning solutions on the market that allow for home cleaning, but with so many expensive and fragile pieces it’s usually best to allow an experienced cleaner to handle your jewellery’s cleaning and repair work.
