Jewellery Maintenance
Plating & Polishing
A 2-step restoration service for getting rid of stubborn dirt and scratches to make your gold jewellery shine with brilliant lustre again.
We are unable to plate and polish jewellery that is not made of gold or silver and items with stone settings will have to be assessed before we can confirm if plating can be done as certain materials will be damaged when in contact with our plating chemicals.
Please note that there will be a very slight weight difference as a very small amount of gold dust will be removed during polishing.
Lead Time
It will take about 3 - 5 working days for your item to be refurbished and ready for your collection. You will be notified via text when item is ready for collection.
Fees
Plating and polishing fee is dependant on product type and plating requirements. Smaller items like rings and pendants will cost lesser to plate and polish as compared to bigger items like thick chains and bangles. Items with stone settings and two-tone plating will also cost more for this service as additional steps is required on our end to achieve the ideal end result.
How Often Should I Plate & Polish My Jewellery?
We recommend only plating and polishing your jewellery when it is very dull and scratched. Usually up to once a year or once every few years depending on usage. For simple maintenance, you can opt for a more affordable and quick cleaning service that we are able to do in-store.
Colour Change
We offer plating service for your gold jewellery to the gollowing colours: Rose gold, white gold and yellow gold. If you would like to change up the colour of your jewellery, simply bring them to us for a plating service to the colour of your choice. The price differs depending on the size and design of your jewellery.
Do note that colour change via plating is not permanent and usually last about 6 months to a year depending on usage. Over time, with friction and wear, the plated colour will wear off and the original colour will start to show through. You can then send your jewellery for plating again.
