Protection

Once a year, bring your fine jewelry back to us for an examination and cleaning. We will check all the prongs for
gemstone security. We also check clasps. If needed, we will recommend restringing pearls to protect against an
inopportune string failure.

When we clean your jewelry, we will also check the stone itself for any damage that may warrant recutting or
repolishing. Extra precautions should be taken when using chemicals such as Clorox and chlorine as they can cause a
permanent irreversible damage.

Be sure you understand how your fine jewelry should be worn, how to store it, how to clean it, and what to look for to
protect it from harm. We would also be glad to discuss with you the questions you might want to ask your insurance
agent concerning coverage.

The care you provide your fine jewelry will reward you with years of pleasurable wear.
