Prongs Retipping

The small metal tips that keep your diamond or gemstone in place are known as prongs. When prongs of your ring wear down, they fail to entirely cover the top of your diamond, allowing it to become loose and tumble. We recommend having your prongs inspected once a year to avoid losing your expensive jewel.

We will add a bit of metal to the top, soldering it to the rest of the claw, this is known as "prong re-tipping," and it is done by creating a new prong out of metal, then heating the material and jewelry so that it attaches.
