Cleaning & Polishing
Jewellery is often the most treasured and valuable possessions a person can own. However, with daily wear and tear, the beauty and shine of jewellery can fade over time. That’s why it’s important to take care of your jewellery by cleaning and polishing it regularly.
At La Voûte, we understand the importance of maintaining the appearance and value of your jewellery. That's why we offer professional cleaning and polishing services to ensure that your jewellery retains its brilliance and shine.
The process of cleaning and polishing jewellery involves several steps. Firstly, we inspect the jewellery to determine its condition and identify any damage to the metals, loose links or clasps, and check for loose stones.
Once the inspection is complete, we begin the cleaning process. We use a specially formulated cleaning solution that is gentle yet effective in removing dirt, grime, and oils from the jewellery. The solution is safe for precious metals and gemstones and is designed to restore the jewellery’s natural shine without damaging the surface.
After cleaning, we proceed to the polishing stage. Polishing is a process that involves removing any surface scratches or marks on the jewellery. We use various polishing tools and techniques, including hand polishing and machine polishing, to achieve the desired level of shine and smoothness on the surface of the jewellery.
In addition to cleaning and polishing, we also offer other services such as rhodium plating for white gold, and re-tipping of prongs for securing loose stones. These additional services are crucial in maintaining the overall condition and appearance of the jewellery.
We recommend that you bring your jewellery in for cleaning and polishing at least once a year. This will not only maintain its beauty and lustre, but also prevent any potential damage or wear and tear that could lead to more costly repairs down the road.
