I purchased a vintage estate engagement ring for my fiancee from a chain retailer website several months ago . Unfortunately, the pictures on the website did not reveal some very serious structural defects to the band and mounting as well as the original etching on the band was barely visible.
Yet I was very apprehensive in taking this one-of-a-kind estate ring to just anyone! Going with a local merchant was very important as well as a shop that was knowledgeable and passionate about vintage jewelry.
We are so happy to have met Donna and Lee. They quickly became just as excited as we were as we discussed the restoration. In just a short time, they were able to revitalize this 1960s ring to it's authentic state, without jeopardizing the integrity of the piece. They completely rebuilt and replicated one entire side of the mount to match the other, exactly! The band etching and every other point of detail was restored.
My fiancee now wears a piece of history that represents our future that we will cherish and pass down for generations to follow. Thank You!
