Chains are a vital part of many types of jewelry, but they're also necessarily a delicate part. And that means that even the best-made chain can eventually break after years of use or due to an accident.
Fortunately, our expert craftsmen have several tools and techniques in their arsenal that they can use to address this type of problem and get your piece back to mint condition quickly. No matter what type of metal your chain is made from or what caused the damage, we'll complete the necessary repairs and return it to you as strong and as beautiful as ever.
Any time we have to solder a broken chain, we evaluate the damage and come up with a specific plan for repair based on that unique situation. However, there are some basic steps that we'll always follow in order to ensure the best possible outcome for your piece.
In addition to repairing broken chains, we can also use these techniques to shorten chains for you. If you have a piece of jewelry that you'd like to wear but that has a chain that's too long, our experts will remove as much material as you'd like and return it to you in like-new condition at your desired length.
Thanks to the advanced tools we have at our disposal and the extensive experience our artisans bring with them to every job, we can work on chains made from a wide variety of metals. These include platinum and palladium, as well as white and yellow gold in any metal grade.
The lasers we use for these types of soldering jobs allow us to work precisely and efficiently, which in turn lets us ensure we leave the piece in the best possible condition with negligible sign that the work was even done. The ability to focus the heat on such a small area also lets us avoid damage to other parts of the piece, and that means we can work on just about any type of jewelry chain with ease.
I can't say how satisfied my wife and I are with the work that we have received from Joseph Jewelry. I was gifted a diamond from my grandmother for my wife's engagement ring and thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated the work that was done to create a custom ring that matched my wife's taste. The entire process was secret from her, but I was able to come to the store and pick through various designs and send pictures of rings that she had liked. Joseph Jewelry combined all of these ideas to create a ring that she loves. After our engagement, we returned to Joseph Jewelry for both of our wedding rings. My ring was pretty standard, but her wedding ring was again custom to made to fit the curved band of the engagement ring' we couldn't be happier with the results. I will definitely being going to Joseph Jewelry for any of my jewelry needs in the future!
