Lab Reports
We can facilitate an independent appraisal on your diamond or precious gems by a recognized gemological laboratory. We will handle the transport of your item to the appropriate facility, and interpret and evaluate your options with you based on their information.

Pearl and Bead Stringing
Pearls and beads should be re-strung every few years depending on the amount of wear. Pearls or beads should be restrung if the pearl has room to slide from knot to knot, or if you see little pieces of fuzz between a pearl or bead, which indicates the string is beginning to fray. We may use silk or nylon thread depending on the item. Restringing is priced by the inch and will take not more than 2 weeks.
