Your Fall Jewelry Checkup: Give Your Everyday Pieces Some Care Before the Holidays

The pieces you wear every day work harder than anything else in your jewelry box. Your engagement ring, your wedding band, the necklace you rarely take off. They go everywhere with you, and over time, that daily wear adds up.

Fall is the perfect season to bring them in and let us look them over before the holidays get busy.

What We Check During Your Jewelry Checkup

Everyday wear shows up quietly, in small details that are easy to miss. During your checkup, we look closely at:

  • Prongs that have worn thin or loosened

  • Chains that have worn thin at the links

  • Clasps that have started to catch

  • Rings that no longer sit the way they used to

We check settings, clasps, and stones so small problems get caught early, while they're still simple to address. And if a piece is ready for a cleaning while it's here, we take care of that too.

Best of all, there's never a charge to look, and our cleaning and inspection are complimentary, anytime.

Why Fall Is the Best Time to Come In

The honest reason is timing. Our bench fills up as the holidays get closer.

A worn prong is a quick fix in October. Catching it now helps keep your stone secure through the holiday season and every gathering, party, and celebration that comes with it.

Repairs You Can Trust, Right Here

If your checkup shows a piece needs attention, you're in good hands. Most repairs are performed on site by our own goldsmith. That means faster turnaround times and a higher standard of quality control than jewelers who outsource their repair work.

Our jewelry repair and restoration services cover everything from ring resizing and prong retipping to full estate jewelry restoration for platinum, 14K and 18K gold, and silver.

We'll walk you through exactly what each piece needs, so you can decide what's right for you.

While Your Jewelry Box Is Open

A checkup is also a great moment to sort through what you have. As you gather your everyday pieces, set aside anything you know you will never wear again.

You have two great options for those pieces:

Give them new life. With jewelry repurposing, we can turn jewelry you never wear into something you will, using the metal and stones you already own.

Find out what they're worth. Our sister store, River City Gold & Silver Exchange, is right next door at 318 4th St S. They buy gold, silver, coins, and old paper currency, and they will look at your items while you wait and tell you what they are worth. Two stops, one block, the same trusted owner.
