Our Services

Werkheiser Jewelers Ltd. offers an array of services to meet the needs of our customers.

Estate Jewelry

Venture back through time as you browse through our collection of lovely Estate jewelry. We offer a nice selection of pieces for the jewelry collector, from vintage designs to modern-day fashions.

Jewelry Repair

Our expertly skilled repair department can facilitate your jewelry repairs, from a simple chain solder to remaking your grandmother’s favorite ring.

Hand Engraving

Unlike machine engraving, hand engraving creates a timeless heirloom to be cherished for generations. Personalize trophies, corporate gifts, baby gifts, graduation gifts and jewelry in a time-honored tradition.

Watch Repair

We provide on-site battery and band replacement for most major watch brands.

Remounting

Give new life to your diamonds and gemstones by remounting them to create a look that expresses your own personal style.

Pearl & Bead Re-stringing

To prevent strand breakage, pearls should be restrung every year due to the nature of silk thread. Werkheiser Fine Jewelry can repair your broken pearl or bead strands as well as redesign them.

Gold Recycling & Purchasing

We are pleased to be able to offer gold recycling/refining services. Recycle your old or broken gold or platinum jewelry for store credit or cash compensation.
