A small bench where things get mended

Read the reviews and the same job keeps coming back. A clasp on a neck chain. A clasp on a bracelet, and the bracelet shortened while it was there. An earring. A necklace that was hard to fix, fixed on the day. Graham F. calls it friendly, professional and repaired quickly; Jon W. simply says excellent work.

Alongside the repairs there are pieces to buy, and emeralds turn up in a lot of them. Gloria, a customer of several years, writes that at Oros you can also have the batteries of your watch replaced or your old jewellery transformed into beautiful tailor made designs. If that is what you have in mind, bring the piece in and ask what can be done with it.

Visiting the workshop

Repairs, remakes, gold and silver. Ask before you assume it cannot be saved

Bring it in and ask

143, Eagle Yard Arch, Hampton St, SE1 6SP

The workshop is open Monday to Saturday, 10am to 6pm, and closed on Sundays. It sits in the arches on Hampton Street, a short walk from Elephant and Castle.

Every repair is its own job, so what it needs and how long it takes is something to ask about with the piece in front of you rather than something to read off a page. The same goes for a remake: bring the old piece and talk it through.

For anything else, whether a job is worth doing or a piece is in the case, call 07456 928128.
