Pearl Restringing
Whether you just want to have your old pearl necklace or bracelet cleaned and restrung, or you want us to create something a little different, our experts are up to the task. We can work on all kinds of pearl restringing projects, and we'll return your jewelry to you in like-new condition every time.
Process Overview
The last thing you want is for your pearl necklace or bracelet to break, in which case you would run the risk of losing pearls. That's why it's a good idea to have your pieces restrung from time to time. This process is quick and straightforward for our skilled craftsmen, although we do always take care to account for the particulars of each piece.
- The first thing we do on any pearl restringing project is to take all of the pearls off the old string and clean them thoroughly.
- Next, we run the new string through the piece, taking care to place a knot between each pearl. This is especially important because it helps prevent the loss of multiple pearls if the string does break for some reason.
- Finally, we'll reconnect the old clasp or put on a new one, depending on your preference.
A New Look
While we can always restring the pearls in your piece exactly as they were before, we can also create a new design for you if you're in the mood to mix things up a bit. Our skilled artisans bring many years of experience to the table, and they can add some custom metalwork designs or adjust the placement of the pearls to reflect a pattern of your choice.
Even if you're not exactly sure what you'd like your finished piece to look like, our professionals will work with you to develop a design that matches your style. We have many years of experience designing and crafting custom jewelry, and that means we can produce beautiful pieces that perfectly reflect your individual style.
Other Repairs
In addition to restringing your pearls, we can also repair or replace clasps that have been damaged or that are simply beginning to wear out. Just as the integrity of the string holding your pearls is important, so is that of the clasp keeping your jewelry in place.
If you have a simple clasp, we'll have no trouble replacing it. And if you instead have a specialty clasp with gemstones or other custom design work, we'll repair the functional parts without damaging or altering the design of the piece.

Joseph was the answer to many, many hours spent looking at engagement rings. I don't remember how I happened across them, but I wish I had done so much sooner. When I was first perusing their online selection, I did not realize that every piece they make is custom, but don't let this intimidate you. The whole website is intuitively set up and their customer service is competent and fast. When you want to order a ring, you must create a "project" on the website, but this is very simple to do. Then all questions you have can be posted to the project's page (similar to facebook); Joseph always responded rapidly to my posts. Since I was ordering a ring that was almost identical to one on their website, I did not go through much of the customization process, but the little that I did do was a fun experience (we swapped sketches and pictures and they sent me a wax model of the ring to make sure I liked it). Joseph was efficient and friendly, showed expertise, and truly wanted to give me a ring that I would like. They also worked within my budget and did not charge for any of the customizations or the prototype they made. Don't hesitate to use them; in the end, you will have a beautiful ring and one that you had part in creating.
