We use Ray O'Connell on Abbeygate Street (opposite Buen Appetito) for a lot of our antique repairs. He does excellent work and he won't rip you off.

His shop is the Watch and Jewellery Repair Centre, which is on the first floor of Century Buildings above Swiftprint. His number (shop) is 086-<snip>.

@ Biko; restoring an antique ring will more often than not mean replacing claws to keep stones held in, and sometimes replacing lost stones. Not usually a DIY job!

ask David in Tempo Antiques on Cross St., opposite The Front Door, always find him willing to help.

I saw the OPs other post in Weddings, seems a cleaning was the imperative. But I suppose a proper look by a professional is always a good thing.

Also please don't post any phone numbers in this forum. Use PM or link to a webpage with the info. I've removed it from your post. thx

He's also very, very pleasant to deal with.
