Resizing

Maybe over time your treasured wedding or engagement ring becomes loose or uncomfortably tight. Or you have simply inherited a ring that does not fit correctly.

There is no longer the need to keep it banished to the drawer. Whether your ring is too big or too small, Alex Osborne’s can resize your ring so that you have the perfect fit and can wear it back on your finger with pride.

 

 

Hand Engraving

Hand engraving on a piece of jewellery adds a unique and totally personal touch. The perfect affordable way to mark an engagement, wedding, anniversary, birthday, or for simply expressing a heartfelt message that will remain forever in the keeper’s memory.

Choose to add your message, or any date or name engraved from a selection of modern and classic fonts and turn your jewellery into an extra special memento.

 

 

Pearl Restringing

Over time, your skin’s natural oils can cause the silk thread on which pearls are strung to become grubby, stretch or even break. This is where Alex Osborne’s pearl restringing and repair service can help. With Alex’s expertise your pearls can stay in tip-top condition and your bracelet or necklace gleaming again.

Alex offers a range of services to take care of watches including:

• Servicing, repair and maintenance
• Battery replacement
• Water resistance testing
• Strap / bracelet replacement and alteration

To maintain accurate time keeping it is recommended that mechanical watches are cleaned and serviced every 3 years.

Speciality Sourcing

Alex Osborne takes pride in going the extra mile to offer his clients a special one-to-one service that cannot be found on our high streets.

If you require for a scarce item such as a particular brand of second-hand watch, Alex can help track it down.

Through many years spent learning his profession within his family business and continuing long term relationships, Alex has reliable contacts who can advise and source even the most elusive items.

 

Repairs

With years of dust, pollution and daily wear and tear to contend with, gemstones as well as silver, gold or platinum jewellery can start to look tired and lose their sparkle. In the worst cases, damage to prongs and clasps can result in loose stone settings.

It is therefore reassuring to know that Alex Osborne offers a complete jewellery repair and restoration service. With his expert knowledge in fine jewellery you can trust Alex to give you the best advice about your individual piece.

Understanding that your jewellery not only holds value but also sentiment is key when working on repairs, to assure complete peace of mind.
