Pearl Restringing and Repair

By tradition, good quality pearl necklaces and bracelets are strung on silk thread. Silk is a lovely material but it's not steel wire and you can't moor boats with it. Over time it'll get grubby and stretch, opening up gaps between the pearls.

For Pearl Market customers we offer a restringing and repair service to keep your pearls in good condition and your necklace or bracelet looking like new.

What you get...

First - we cut up the necklace or bracelet and string the pearls on a temporary strand. The strand is soaked in warm water to loosen and dissolve cosmetic residue. Then it's rinsed, wiped over with a clean soft cloth and left to dry.

The necklace or bracelet is strung on double or quadruple strands
of silk thread and knotted as it was when new.
