Antique and Heirloom Jewellery Restoration
Antique and heirloom jewellery carries more than just beauty — it holds memories, history and the stories of those who wore it before you. These pieces are often passed down through generations, becoming precious keepsakes that deserve to be cared for and worn. At Brinkhaus Jewellers, we specialise in the restoration of antique and heirloom jewellery, helping you preserve the past while ensuring your jewellery is ready to shine for years to come.
Why Restore Antique Jewellery?
Over time, even the most finely crafted jewellery can show signs of wear. Settings may loosen, metal may thin, and gemstones may lose their sparkle under years of dust and scratches. Restoration allows us to carefully return your piece to its original beauty, protecting its sentimental and monetary value.
Restoring an heirloom means more than just making it wearable again. It is about honouring family traditions, preserving heritage and ensuring that the jewellery you treasure can continue its journey through your family’s story.
Our Restoration Process
At Brinkhaus Jewellers, we approach each heirloom with the respect and care it deserves. Every restoration begins with a detailed inspection and a discussion about your wishes for the piece. From there, our master jewellers may:
-
Secure or rebuild settings to hold gemstones safely
-
Replace missing or damaged stones
-
Re-size rings or reshape bands
-
Polish gemstones and re-finish metal for renewed brilliance
-
Repair clasps, chains or links
-
Strengthen worn areas of metal to ensure durability
Our goal is always to maintain the integrity of the original design, while restoring the piece so it can be worn with confidence.
