Care Advice
Daily wear, pollution, even certain perfumes and lotions can all take their toll on the brilliance of diamonds and dull the surface of gold or silver settings. We recommend our customers to have their jewellery professionally maintained. If your jewellery was purchased from us, our highly trained staff will check the security of the settings and give your jewellery a thorough cleaning. Between professional checkups we recommend gentle cleaning with a non-abrasive jewellery cleaner, available in store for jewellery purchased from John Macintyre and Son.

It’s unique to you alone – a combination of your ideas and our creativity.

- And most importantly you get exactly the piece of jewellery you always wanted.

Re-mounting
Remounting a diamond ring is a great way to preserve a special ring. The most common reason for remounting a diamond ring, is that over the years, the setting and band may wear out. A worn setting may cause a diamond to loosen or fall out.
Jewellery Insurance
We recommend TH March Insurance who can offer you a range of options to cover your jewellery, either as part of a home insurance or stand alone insurance.
Why Insure your Jewellery with TH March?
The answer is simple, you may have cover for your jewellery under your existing home insurance but does it provide the cover you think (or hope) it does?
To illustrate this point here are a few problems arising under unsuitable home insurances which can be solved by products negotiated by T H March.
- No cover away from your home
- Restrictions on the total of jewellery covered or the amount for any one item.
- Theft cover from your home may only apply following forced entry.
- Accidental loss may not be included.
- You typically have to pay the first £50 or £100 of any loss (the excess).
- Your home insurance company’s staff may not understand jewellery and jewellers.
What is more, TH March offer an instant and bespoke jewellery insurance service. They will replace your items on a like for like basis from the same jeweller you originally purchased it from. Many standard insurers offer replacement jewellery from jewellers of their choice, which might not be yours. Their chosen jewellers range, style or service may not suit your standards. TH March offer broader specialised ranges which better suit individual tastes and our price structure means a better value replacement.
*We offer a complimentary cleaning service for items purchased from John Macintyre & Son so your treasured jewellery looks as bright and exquisite as the day you bought it.
