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.

Working with Erich at Joseph Jewelry has been such a delight. After seeing his work written up at Offbeat Bride, it wasn't too long into working with him in person that I made the connection, and then felt very sure I'd really lucked out! I had come in with an idea of what I'd wanted, but knew I also wanted something a little extra. During the course of our consultation, Erich was able to really hone in on the essence of what I was going for, and create a design that was far better than anything I could have imagined on my own! I was blown away by the number of ideas and unique solutions he offered, all with such a bright and genuine enthusiasm! The facility with which he sketched out ideas to illustrate his thinking as we discussed possibilities, and the intuitive respect and care with which he handled my design left such an impression on me. My overall impression of Joseph Jewelry is one of professionalism and competence with a smile. I'll not only be returning for further pieces, but recommending them every chance I get!
