Is quicker the better way when it comes to jewellery repair?

Posted on April 11, 2018February 21, 2020 by Robyn Pancer

Same-day or overnight delivery guaranteed. That is Amazon’s key to success. Consumers love instantaneous gratification. I know I do. I can be anywhere, order something online and have it sent to me the following day.

So it really doesn’t surprise me when I get inquiries requesting jewellery repairs done on the spot while waiting. Once again, clients want instantaneous gratification. In this case, it is not practical. Let’s go back one step. A potential fiancee has purchased a custom made ring for his hope to be a bride but it is a bit too small or a favorite piece of jewellery has been inherited and it needs tip work. When you have such meaningful heirlooms, isn’t the best job possible more important than being expeditious? If you had to wait an extra week or two for a top-notch job, as opposed to waiting half an hour for novice workmanship, which would you prefer? Once you have decided to leave your precious gems, a repair bag with the necessary information will be reported, logged into our data system and a photo of your trinket with the instructions will be taken.

Alright, so now you have been reassured that it is ideal to have the best possible job done. Now you are being told the job is not being done on the premises. More caution bells are ringing in your head. How do your precious baubles get from point A to point B? There are two possible scenarios. Either personally or by courier. Ringleader Fine Jewellers only considers one option. We personally deliver, consult with the finest experts in the trade and pick up our repairs when they are completed. Our suppliers also have a logging and tracking system.

Another query from inquiring minds is that seems like a lot of extra work when you could just hire a tradesperson to work in your shop? One might think so except for the fact that jewellery is an extremely specialized field. For instance, in creating a diamond ring the following experts would be involved: If complicated, a CAD designer would design the ring. It would then go to a casting house to cast, produce the piece of jewellery. A goldsmith would then clean up and polish it before sending it to a diamond setter for installing the diamond. If a message is inserted in the ring, an engraver would do this at the end.

Ringleader Fine Jewellers has been specializing in custom-designed jewellery and repairs with over tens of thousands successfully completed for twenty years. We are a local, independent, family-run business looking forward to assisting you in your next milestone or celebration. So now you understand that in the jewellery industry, quicker isn’t always better.

Why You Should Choose a Small Jeweller?

Posted on April 7, 2017November 1, 2017 by masteradmin

Choosing a jeweller that’s right for you is important. The first inclination that people have is to wander down to the mall and walk into the big jeweller with the expensive television commercials. The small guys often get overlooked, but they should be your first destination when seeking something sparkly and special.

Why? Because they care about your needs more than any large corporation ever will.

Small jewellers are the little guys who root for your personal triumphs. They want you to leave with a piece of jewellery worth more than money can buy. Small jewellers want your engagements to be romantic, your birthday presents to be wow-worthy and your anniversaries to be filled with starry-eyed happiness.

Can you trust your Jeweller

Posted on February 16, 2017November 1, 2017 by Robyn Pancer

Phil and I have combined work experience in the jewellery business of over 50 years. Wow, how time flies, but I did say combined. We feel like we have seen and met a gamut of people and experiences. When a new client comes into our store and asks “how do I know I can trust you”?, I have given up trying to plead our case of why one should leave their most precious pieces in our care. I can only give a synopsis of our history and let the individual make their own conclusion. It really doesn’t even matter what I say. I tell people the bottom line is all about trust. And if you don’t get a good feeling from us, then don’t leave your most treasured jewels in our care.

Buying fine jewellery is unique, just like the gemstones that compose each piece. Comparing two diamonds is difficult since each one is rare and has its own particular composition. Also, fine jewellery, like many industries, has a list of lingo, that may be overwhelming to some. Generally, people shop jewellery stores when marking a milestone occasion. In today’s society, with so much information at our fingertips, one should feel confident with their jeweller. So how do you know if you can trust your jeweller?

Just as you would with any major purchase, word of mouth is the best. Ask your friends, family, co-workers and neighbors who they recommend. If buying something special, you may want to stay away from the internet. Diamonds and fine gems need to be seen. The average person can not be expected to understand what it takes years of training for a knowledgeable person in the industry to learn. However, google is ideal for checking out potential companies. It provides feedback and gives insight into the stores strengths. For instance, do you want something custom or ready made? Do they have a gemologist on site? A good website will also show all the services available and how long the company has been in business.
If you are interested in a custom work, a CAD, computer-aided design should be available.
A reputable jeweller should have a selection of stones to choose from, and the knowledge to answer all of your questions and concerns. Taking the time to explain the 4C’s will aid in making a informed selection.
Make sure the time frame is a fair for both you and the jeweller. A classic solitaire should have a fairly quick turnover time, a week or two at the most if the mount needs to be cast. But something more unique in nature, which includes a CAD is more labour and time sensitive, so keep that in mind. Remember you want a good job, not a fast one.
I must state, that I know many jewellers in the industry and believe, for the most part that they are a good bunch. Is it an old wives tale, that someone took a ring into a store and the jeweller changed the diamond? Or did it happen in smalltown USA? Regardless, I have not heard that happening in our country. Jewellers want to sell their goods, not steal someone elses’ and have a reputation to maintain. We know that word of mouth is key, and Ringleader Fine Jewellers prides itself on exceptional customer service while producing custom pieces for ectastic clients.

[Ringleader Fine Jewellers] There’s more to Jewellery than Gold and Gemstones.

Posted on April 6, 2016August 23, 2017 by Robyn Pancer

%name [Ringleader Fine Jewellers] Theres more to Jewellery than Gold and Gemstones.

I remember as a young girl how fascinated I was with my mother’s jewellery. Every piece told a story and helped me make a connection to my family, some of whom I had never met and also places that I had only heard of. It was shiny, sparkled and in many ways magical.
Every trinket and bauble in your jewellery box also has a message. Many of these tales may have been told by previous generations and your mission is to pass this little bit of history onto the next echelon. That is one of the amazing qualities of these tangible goods. For instance, every bride can look at her engagement ring and recite the five W’S (who, when, where, why, what) associated with that special day. Every item you own represents something. It may be a symbol of hope, inspiration, celebration, remembrance or loss.
The price tag that we pay for jewellery is based on rarity, gold content, workmanship and design. That is how we justify our purchase. Delivery of these one of a kind pieces make it symbolic. No other durable goods, computers, smartphones or cars for example, have lasting power. These shiny baubles mark special occasions, promises, commitments and milestones for many years to come.
So this spring, if you are looking for something special, for mother’s day, christening, confirmation, graduation, birthday, anniversary, wedding or just because, remember Ringleader Fine Jewellers. Create your own lasting legacy.
