Restoration

res·​to·​ra·​tion | ˌre-stə-ˈrā-shən

noun

A technique in which an aged piece of jewelry is restored to its former appearance and/or durability

Restoration is the process of working with an aged piece of jewelry to recover its original appearance. This can be done on nearly any piece of jewelry due to the innate durability of the precious gems and metals used in most pieces of jewelry. Restoration is a common process for heirloom pieces or antiques that have been recovered or the original owners would like to restore for continued use. Restoration can also be used to restore a piece’s original durability, ensuring it can be worn safely without worrying about something breaking or becoming damaged through regular use.
