There comes a time in the life of a lot of jewellery that the item becomes damaged and in need of repair. Sometimes, the damage is minor so you can get it fixed relatively simply, and with less expense. However, there are times when it is not economically viable to repair the jewellery which leaves you with something that you can no longer wear. So, what do you do?

The first thing that you will need to do before you can make a decision as to what to do with your damaged jewellery is to find out what the problem is. When you know the issue that you are dealing with, then you get weigh up the viability of having the item repaired, or consider other options that you have available. In the first instance you should speak to well-known jewellers like Kalmar Antiques, who will be able to list your available options, as well as offer you a quote for repairs.

If you do decide that you wish to repair your jewellery, then it is important that you shop around and get as many different quotes as you can. Although the cost of the previous metals to repair an item of jewellery may be very similar, the standard of the craftsmanship as well as the cost of the repairs will vary between different jewellers.

One of the best options available to you is to sell your broken and unwanted jewellery for scrap. If the jewellery is costume jewellery, then it is highly unlikely that you will get a lot for it. However, if your jewellery is made from precious metals and stones, then you may be able to get a wad of cash for your rings with exceptional style.

An excellent idea available to you is to repurpose your jewellery to something different which will allow you to use the broken pieces and not leave them gathering dust. You can make a bracelet from your broken earrings, or you can use a brooch to embellish packaging on a present that you are giving. You can also use your jewellery in floral arrangements to provide

them with some panache and style.

Rather than selling your jewellery for scrap, you may be able to find a buyer for it, who is willing to put the time and effort in to repair the piece. You may be able to sell to a friend or a family member, or you may also find a buyer online after placing an advert. There are many ways that you can seek a buyer for your unwanted shiny jewellery.

Whatever you do with your jewellery, it is important that you know just how much it is worth before you throw or give it away, or even sell it. If you decide to use the services of a company to buy your items, then make sure that you shop around and get as many quotes as possible. There is no reason to leave your broken and unwanted jewellery in a draw or cupboard when you can repurpose it, or even sell it for some quick cash. For those sentimental pieces, though, you may wish to repair them and make them into a family heirloom!
