Cleaning by polishing

Why polish your favorite piece of jewelry? It is indeed the final step in making a piece of jewelry to bring out all its beauty and give the metal its shiny appearance. 

Polishing is also widely used to restore your jewel’s original brilliance. That’s why Art’emi offers services that revive the youth and shine of your 

  • ring, 
  • bracelet, 
  • necklace

and any other accessory close to your heart, but made with precious materials like silver, gold, and platinum.

From thorough cleaning with professional products, but also thanks to her polishing machine, your designer will restore shine and elegance to each piece of jewelry that passes through her hands. Repairing, caring for, and maintaining your treasures are the key principles of Art’emi.

Jewelry pleating

Cleaning by rhodium plating

Do your white gold jewelry tend to lose their shine over the years? Rhodium plating helps to fix this problem. 

Indeed, this technique allows them to be revived after a good polishing. This is thanks to the deposition of a thin layer of rhodium, which is a rare metal, on the surface of the jewelry. But rhodium plating at Art’emi doesn’t stop there!

Changing the color of your jewelry can be another use: 


  • A white gold piece can be transformed into yellow gold (and vice versa).
  • A white gold piece can become rose gold (and vice versa).
  • Also, rhodium plating can turn dull white gold into bright and shiny white gold.

Ultrasonic cleaning

Jewelers favor ultrasonic cleaning to deeply remove dirt from jewelry. Some parts of the jewelry are not accessible to manual cleaning, which is why the technique is widely used. This technology allows cleaning your rings, 

  • watches, 
  • bracelets, 
  • earrings, 
  • necklaces, 
  • long necklaces, 
  • ID bracelets

and pendants down to the smallest details.

FAQ

Why come to my Art’emi workshop to repair your jewelry in Brussels?

When you entrust me with a piece of jewelry, you are not simply leaving an object… you are entrusting me with a story.


In my Art’emi workshop in Brussels, I take the time to analyze each piece precisely. Every piece of jewelry is different, every repair requires a specific approach. There is no standard solution, only custom work.


I work with professional jewelry techniques, combining artisanal know-how and modern tools, always respecting the original jewelry. My goal is simple: for your jewelry to regain all its beauty, strength, and shine, just like the first day.


I prefer direct contact with you in the store to understand your request and advise you best. Each intervention is unique, so the price is always discussed when you drop off your piece at the workshop.

You should allow a maximum of 15 business days, depending on the complexity of the repair.

Coming to Art’emi means choosing precise, honest work done with care, in a workshop where every detail matters.

How can I know if my jewelry can be repaired?

This is a question I am often asked, and the answer is simple: in the vast majority of cases, a repair is possible.


When you come to the workshop, I take the time to analyze your jewelry in detail to determine the best solution. Even very damaged or old pieces can often be restored thanks to adapted techniques.


Since every piece of jewelry is unique, I always favor a custom approach to ensure a result that is solid, aesthetic, and durable.

Will the repair damage or alter my jewelry?

This is a completely legitimate concern, especially when it comes to a cherished piece of jewelry.

My work is precisely to intervene with accuracy and respect. The goal is not to transform your jewelry, but to restore it while preserving its identity and original style.

I always make sure that the repair is as discreet as possible, while strengthening the piece's durability so it can be worn with full confidence.
