OUR PROCESS

What to expect when you entrust Knar to service or repair your jewellery.

Your jewellery isn’t just an accessory. It’s one of your most valued possessions. That’s why we only put your pieces in the hands of our experienced goldsmiths, technicians, or authorized brand service partners. Here’s how our process works:

Step 1: Complimentary Assessment

Bring your jewellery to one of our store locations so we can examine it and discuss your specific needs.

Step 2: No-Obligation Quote

Our knowledgeable associates will aim to provide you with a cost estimate during the initial consultation. But if your repair is more intricate or requires input from a brand’s authorized service centre, it will take us a little more time to deliver an accurate quote.

If you choose to proceed with the work, we’ll provide an estimated service timeline. This timeline will vary depending on the type of repair, the parts required, and the existing service volume.

Step 3 - Photography & Documentation

If we need to send your jewellery to an authorized brand service centre for repair, we'll take close-up digital photographs to document any serial and model numbers for reference. Then, we’ll place this information in our files, ensuring your pieces are meticulously catalogued and cared for.

At Knar, we’re happy to repair pieces purchased through one of our stores or from another jeweller. Please bring your jewellery to our Oakville, Guelph, or Toronto store for a complimentary assessment.

Knar values our clients’ trust and will never switch diamonds without your knowledge. Many diamonds have a unique identification code inscribed on the girdle, serving as its fingerprint. When you bring in your jewellery, our team will show you this code before and after the repair, ensuring that the diamond you receive back is undoubtedly yours. For diamonds without inscriptions, we take close-up photos, make precise measurements, and test the gems for authenticity.

Determining if a chipped diamond or gemstone can be repaired requires a case-by-case assessment. However, here’s how we generally handle larger and smaller stones.

The only way to repair the chip for larger stones is by recutting or polishing, which will reduce the stone's overall weight. The extent of this material loss varies according to the chip's size and location. However, larger or deeper chips will lead to more significant material loss than minor surface chips or scratches.

The diminutive size of smaller gems sometimes makes it impossible to repair chips by recutting or polishing. However, we can easily replace these gems to restore your jewellery to its former brilliance at a minimal cost.

If you notice a chip, please bring your piece to one of our store locations for a thorough inspection. Our knowledgeable associates will closely examine your jewellery and discuss the best possible repair or replacement options with you.

To quickly determine if your diamond or gemstone is loose, gently shake your jewellery near your ear and listen for any rattling. You can also lightly brush the stone with a soft toothbrush to detect movement. If you notice a shift or wobble, the stone is likely loose. However, for complete peace of mind, it is best to visit a Knar Jewellery store for a complimentary professional evaluation. If we notice your diamond or gemstone is loose, we’ll let you know so you can initiate a repair as soon as possible.

For more than four decades, Knar has stood as a pillar of excellence in the Canadian jewellery industry, distinguished by unparalleled standards of quality and service. Our master goldsmiths bring together more than 50 years of combined experience, ensuring we handle each piece with the highest quality craftsmanship and care. This expertise is complemented by our state-of-the-art workshop, equipped with the latest tools and technology, allowing us to fulfill our customers’ jewellery repair needs, whether in Oakville, Guelph, Toronto, or surrounding areas. Additionally, our approach to jewellery repair is personalized and comprehensive. We examine each piece in its entirety to check its integrity rather than focusing on isolated issues. We also ensure our jewellery repairs are free of visible solder marks, tool marks, or unwelcome stiffness or rigidity.
