Below are the general processes we use for the care of greenstone jewellery:

1. STONE RESTORATION

(a) Greenstone has a clean break or has snapped:
Pin and glue: We pin the two pieces of stone together by drilling small stainless steel pins and securing them with strong glue. We can also reinforce the support around the break by binding it with a cord.
Alternatively, we can reshape broken pieces into separate designs through sanding or transforming them.

(b) Chipped or cracked greenstone:
Reshaping and sanding: Using a sandstone file we smooth over the chipped part of the stone. This may alter the shape of the carving slightly.


2. NECKLACE CORD REPLACEMENT

(a) Your necklace cord is frayed or worn:
We offer either ready-made replacement cords that can be easily fitted onto the greenstone pendant. There are four colours of cord to choose from: black/brown/tan/white.

(b) Loose binding around Greenstone pendant:
We replace the cord and rebind the pendant, we offer different styles of cord plaiting and can replace the original binding or change it completely.
