Another ?for Kathie-jewelry
 
I thank you so much regarding your previous answers regarding remake/reset jewelry etc. One more thing I'm wondering about. I have a huge 18 CT Amythyst that was in the center of a "flashy" diamond/gold,ring that I wore almost all the time for many years, and, it (the center stone) became rubbed and not crisp or shiny anymore. I bought a new center stone for the ring as I found that having it re polished was almost as expensive as a new stone. Do you think, that your JK Jewelry would be able to polish the stone and, re set it as a slide, set in gold for a necklace? The polishing thing is what I'm especially interested in.

Sue, I have no info on this from my personal experience, but if it were me, I'd take the stone along and ask.

sue...i am sure they could....my jeweler has polished up a garnet of karen's that was badly scarred, from "building stone walls" as she puts it....so it can be done and very cheaply....

Kathy or Bob (or anyone). Do you know what time SJ jeweler`s closes in the evening? Do they close for a time in the afternoon too?

Pat, SJ's hours are 10 am - 6 pm, no closure in the afternoon. I typically call them the day before I want to go and arrange for a driver to pick me up and get me there at 10 am. At that hour of the morning, it takes about 20 minutes from the Royal Orchid.
