By design, chains and clasps are fine and delicate, making them the most vulnerable part of any necklace or bracelet.

The good news is that chain and clasp repair is one of the fastest and most affordable jewelry repairs available, and in most cases your piece can be back in your hands the same day.
Our in-house jewelers repair all chain types including box chains, cable chains, rope chains, figaro chains, and ball chains in gold, silver, white gold, and platinum. A properly soldered chain repair restores your piece to like-new condition, so your favorite necklace or bracelet looks and wears exactly as it did the day you first put it on.
Don't let a broken chain sit in a drawer. Bring it in to any Diamond & Gold Buyers of Pittsburgh location across the Pittsburgh area for a free, no-obligation assessment and same-day repair estimate, no appointment necessary.
A grand occasion called for your most beloved jewelry and as all things it will also come to an end. You're carefully taking your jewelry off and your heart drops. You've lost a stone out of your favorite piece. Whether a diamond has worked loose from its setting, a side stone has gone missing, or a gemstone has cracked beyond wear, our in-house jewelers at Diamond & Gold Buyers of Pittsburgh are experienced in stone replacement and resetting across all jewelry types and metals.
Stone replacement is not a one-size-fits-all repair. Matching a replacement stone requires a trained eye for color, cut, clarity, and size. Our jewelers take the time to source a stone that complements your piece as closely as possible, so the finished result looks complete and intentional rather than patched. From diamonds and sapphires to rubies, emeralds, and semi-precious stones, we work with a wide range of gemstones to get your piece looking whole again.
Bring your piece in to any Diamond & Gold Buyers of Pittsburgh location across the Pittsburgh area for a free, no-obligation stone replacement assessment, no appointment necessary.
Jewelry that is worn and loved collects the evidence of a life well lived. Lotions, oils, everyday grime, and the natural tarnish that comes with time all work together to dull the brilliance of even the finest pieces. A professional cleaning and polishing restores your jewelry to the sparkle and shine it had the day you first wore it, and in many cases reveals a brightness you may have forgotten was ever there.
At Diamond & Gold Buyers of Pittsburgh our in-house jewelers provide professional cleaning and polishing for all jewelry types including gold, white gold, rose gold, platinum, and silver. From engagement rings and wedding bands to heirloom necklaces and everyday pieces, we treat every item with the same attention and care regardless of its monetary value.
Regular professional cleaning also gives our jewelers the opportunity to spot small issues like loose prongs, worn clasps, or hairline cracks before they become costly repairs down the road. Bring your jewelry in to any Diamond & Gold Buyers of Pittsburgh location across the Pittsburgh area for a free, no-obligation cleaning assessment, no appointment necessary.
Prongs are the small metal claws that hold your stones securely in place, and like all things subjected to daily wear they gradually wear down over time. A prong that catches on clothing, feels rough to the touch, or looks visibly worn is a prong that is no longer doing its job. Left unaddressed, worn prongs are the leading cause of lost stones, a repair that is far more costly than the re-tipping that could have prevented it.
Prong re-tipping is the process of rebuilding the worn tip of a prong back to its original shape and strength, securing your stone and restoring the clean, finished look of your setting. Our in-house jewelers at Diamond & Gold Buyers of Pittsburgh perform prong re-tipping on all metal types including gold, white gold, yellow gold, rose gold, and platinum across a wide range of ring styles and settings.
If your ring is catching on fabric or you simply cannot remember the last time your prongs were inspected, bring it in.
