Jump Ring Replacement
Jump rings are used in all kinds of jewelry, and they can serve a variety of purposes. But if you're having trouble with one or more of the jump rings in a piece, our experts can repair or replace them for you and return your piece to you in like-new condition. We work on jewelry in all styles and all types of metals, and we bring many years of experience in fine custom jewelry to every job we take on.
Process Overview
To ensure that your piece gets the best possible care and attention, we make sure to take all unique aspects of each item into account in every repair job we take on. However, any time we're repairing or replacing jump rings, there is a general outline of steps we follow to diagnose and fix the problem.
- The first thing we do for all jump ring replacement jobs is to inspect the entire piece to make sure there are no additional problem areas.
- Next, we'll close the loop tight by bringing both ends together.
- Once that's done, we use a laser to solder the loop shut permanently.
- Finally, we'll refinish and polish the piece.
All Metals and Colors
We can replace jump rings in all colors and made from any type of metal. No matter what your piece is made of or how it's finished, we'll identify the exact match and then use that to complete the repair. The result is a piece of jewelry that will look and feel exactly as it did the day you bought it.
Laser Technology
The laser technology we use to fuse the ends of a new jump ring together enables us to work with extreme precision. That means we can repair or replace jump rings no matter where they are on your piece without damaging or endangering any other elements present.
Having the ends of your jump rings soldered together helps ensure that it won't fall off unexpectedly, reducing the likelihood of loss or damage. Especially if you wear a piece frequently, it's important that all jump ring connections be secure, so as soon as you notice a possible issue, it's a good idea to bring it to us for repair or replacement.
Finishing Touches
Once we've repaired all connections and ensured the security of your piece, we'll put on the finishing touches to make your ring like new. This includes applying texture or polish as needed so that there's no apparent difference between the original and replacement pieces.

It's still incredible to me that I googled "image engagement ring engraving solitaire" and found an image of a ring I really liked online, then followed the post to the Joseph Jewelry website and fell in love with another one of their customized designs. But, I had misgivings about buying a ring online without ever trying it on. When I hit the "location" button, I couldn't believe my eyes--they are based in Bellevue! I was headed to visit family in the Seattle area about a week later. Once at the store we were helped by Andrea who was patient, knowledgeable and helpful, but since my favorite design was customized, they didn't have it in stock. Their willingness to make up a wax model before we left town 24 hours later made all the difference. The rest of the online process of changes, special requests, approvals and shipping went very smoothly. After college, I worked in the jewelry business and it was so great to see how the folks at Joseph Jewelry were professional with a focus on great design and good customer service. I recommend them highly!
