Services
Jewellery cleaning
In-store we offer a jewellery checking and cleaning service. Prior to any cleaning we will examine your jewellery under magnification and advise you of any maintenance work which may be required. We do not charge for this service, but just ask for a charitable donation.
Polishing & rhodium plating
In addition, we offer a polishing and rhodium plating service for platinum and gold jewellery, this is carried out off site at our workshop, with a 1-2 week turnaround time. Ring polishing starts from £25, and from £45 for polishing and rhodium plating.
Ring resizing
Our knowledgeable and experienced workshop work on gold, platinum, palladium and silver, and our ring resizing service generally has a 1-2 week turnaround. For the vast majority of cases we will give you a quote in-store, before your ring is sent via insured post to our secure workshop.
At the time of quoting we will also have a general check of the ring and advise you of any maintenance work which may be worth carrying out while the resizing is done.
Prices are dependant on the precious metal, the amount which we are resizing the ring by, and the width of the band itself.
Jewellery repair, restoration & remodelling
We offer a comprehensive range of jewellery repairs to bring your favourite pieces back to life, from some simple claw retipping or repairing a broken chain, to replacing lost gemstones and total restoration, we at Harrington Brookshaw Jewellers can help and advise you.
We take pride in transforming elements of your existing jewellery, ideas such as sympathetically remounting a gemstone from a treasured heirloom into a new piece of jewellery, or amalgamating gemstones from multiple items of jewellery into something new and exciting.
Bespoke jewellery
Create a truly unique piece of jewellery using our bespoke service. By incorporating elements of your existing jewellery, taking design cues from pieces which we have in stock, or getting ideas from our archive of previous commissions, we will work with you to fine tune a design.
Your chosen bespoke piece will be beautifully handmade by our craftsman in our workshop and presented to you.
Sell your jewellery
We are always happy to look at and consider any jewellery which you would like to part exchange or sell, whether this be items in gold, platinum or silver, gem set jewellery, loose diamonds or coins.
