Here at Artisan, Dalkeith, two of the services we are proud to offer is ring stone replacement and resetting of loose stones.
For stone replacement, our goldsmiths will work in conjunction with the gemologist to find a suitable stone, and return the ring to it's former glory.
Resetting a loose stone is more straightforward and will usually just involve replacing or retipping claws.
It is always unfortunate to lose a stone, but there some preventative techniques.
1. It is recommended that for daily wear, a ring should be checked annually by a professional jeweller. For rings worn occasionally, every one to two years is generally sufficient.
2. Self monitoring - you can gently tap the ring or lightly nudge the ring with something like tweezers, in order to check for rattling.
3. If claws are catching on fabric or clothes, this is a sign that a repair may be required.
It is also worth noting that, if a ring is insured, then it will assist with any claims if the ring has been professionally checked and repaired when necessary.
