A bit more about me… I have been working in the jewellery industry for over 30 years, and have a real passion for creating, repairing and restoring beautiful pieces of jewellery. I started my working life in large manufacturing jewellers. Then, for a period of around 15 years, I owned and ran a retail jewellery shop with an in-house workshop, in my native Devon. More recently, I have chosen to be solely workshop based, enabling me to focus on the actual jewellery. I work with jewellery stores, trade and individual clients. I have been fortunate enough to have worked on a wide range of jewellery and am able to call on my many years of knowledge, to tackle any repair, whether an antique or modern piece. I moved to Winchester in 2019, where I operate my own workshop, but I still maintain a commercial relationship with jewellers in Exeter too. I am always happy to advise and support customers, and delivering beautiful pieces that delight my clients is what makes my heart sing. https://www.garyhobbsjewellery.co.uk/home daily 1.0 2024-01-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaee3770966a21ede1241b7/1592154845414-KZI30N3C9MIXUXDEVVWR/Gary+Hobbs+-+logo-trans-web-header.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaee3770966a21ede1241b7/1589123974430-N4AWQ87WG32ZZ0K7Y8D0/fullsizeoutput_3a71.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaee3770966a21ede1241b7/1590256731201-1S0FSEGVRA8S9RCTLNVP/GHJ-web-home.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaee3770966a21ede1241b7/1589123683288-7LMODKD8K02HNKXA4A7W/image0.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaee3770966a21ede1241b7/1589124465575-0DEF9Z2RU865L1WKJH0X/alyssa-hurley-IdU1Si3wJ-I-unsplash.jpg Home - Beautiful design, beautifully made Your jewellery should reflect you - your style and your taste. Don’t compromise. Wear your jewellery with pride. Make a statement. Be unique. Be you. https://www.garyhobbsjewellery.co.uk/services daily 0.75 2023-08-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaee3770966a21ede1241b7/1589125709740-HCUII76EUDC43DK51AGR/goldsmith-4105672_1920.jpg Services - Ring Sizing Perhaps you have a family heirloom, or an antique ring, that you’d like resized to fit you? Or maybe your ring size has altered over the years? No problem. I can easily adjust your ring - making it bigger or smaller to fit you. The re-size will be seamless and after a polish it will look like new again. I always start this service by discussing the individual piece with you, particularly with stone set rings. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaee3770966a21ede1241b7/1589124695888-AQEKVJLH1KVOP7ZCHL6L/image0.jpg Services - Refurbishment | Cleaning | Polishing | Rhodium Plating Cleaning, polishing, rhodium plating, as well as remodelling, can all breathe new life into your jewellery. Professional cleaning and polishing your precious pieces will help stones to sparkle and the gold to shine. And if your white gold has become dull, rhodium plating will make it brighter. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaee3770966a21ede1241b7/1592155512932-N3DQLWSGSZ3B4J8UDQI4/Gary+Hobbs+-+logo-trans-web-header.png Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaee3770966a21ede1241b7/1589125177087-VFY2OUY6BZOHD4BL2ZEF/alyssa-hurley-IdU1Si3wJ-I-unsplash.jpg Services - Beautiful design, beautifully made Do you have a precious memento you would like remodelled into something more wearable, and more you? Or maybe you would like a bespoke piece created uniquely for you? Anything from a small pendant to an elaborate diamond engagement ring is possible. I will sit down with you and learn more about what you would like. We will look at pictures and sketches together. Then I can source stones for you to choose, to suit your budget and style. Your jewellery should reflect you - your style and your taste. Don’t compromise. Wear your jewellery with pride. Make a statement. Be unique. Be you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaee3770966a21ede1241b7/1590256542442-NLQWUNX95W3XRISV4CI4/AdobeStock_215934633.jpeg Services - Repairs This is the core of my work. It gives me great pleasure to see a customer’s piece returned to its former glory. From a brooch, pendant or chain - repairing breaks, sorting out catches, replacing clasps or adding safety chains, changing watch straps - I can help. But I can also re-build settings, reset stones, replace missing stones, or add a new shank to a worn ring. Bring me your jewellery, and I will restore it for you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaee3770966a21ede1241b7/1590256584560-73HNG6DNU9TI2E0SYBBR/AdobeStock_529580.jpeg Services - Valuations Many insurance policies require your jewellery to be listed separately, and up to date valuations are usually needed. Should you need to make a claim, a valuation provides essential proof of ownership and value. I am happy to provide valuations for single or multiple items. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaee3770966a21ede1241b7/1589127480544-AI9JJEWICB9X9C6SL0BX/gold-92593_1280.jpg Services - Buy unwanted gold Do you have any scrap or old gold, silver or platinum jewellery you would like to sell? I will buy gold rings, bracelets, earrings and any gold, silver or platinum jewellery - even if broken. I will get the best price for you. You could even treat yourself to something new, that’s more you. https://www.garyhobbsjewellery.co.uk/privacy-cookies-policy daily 0.75 2024-01-24
