Shorten Chains & Bracelets
Do you have a necklace that’s too long or a bracelet that’s falling off your wrist? Though the process differs somewhat based on the complexity of the chain, the basic principle of removing the unwanted section and reattaching the clasp remains the same no matter what chain you wish to shorten. At The Jewellery Mechanic, our chain shortening service adjusts the chain of your piece to the exact length specified, ensuring a completely customised look and fit. Please fill out the form and upload the required images when placing your order. We will reach out if any additional information is necessary to best complete the service.Trusted With 35 Years Of Repairs

Been thinking about selling my old Gold for a while and see Gold prices are high so thought I’d pop in to see James for a price. Extremely happy with the amount I received, no messing about and cash in my hand there and then. Would deffo recommend having a sort out and popping to Blackwells for a quote.

Helen Nicholson
I asked on a local Facebook group for personal recommendations as I had some jewellery that I wanted to sell. Blackwell Jewellers was recommended several times. I spoke to them via messenger and visited the Gravesend shop shortly after. What a find! Sarah was lovely, really explained everything she was doing and didn’t push us to make any decisions quickly. I highly recommend them.

James does exactly what he says. He was honest, professional, and kept me updated throughout the whole process. It's rare to find someone so reliable in this industry.

Finally, after months of deciding on a ring/design james and the team at Blackwells have made a beautiful bespoke ring. Amazing communication with a lot of knowledge of diamonds and settings I couldn’t fault their service. Thank you for all your hard work and my beautiful engagement ring, I couldn’t be more happier.
Lois Davidson
James and the rest of the team at Blackwell Jewellers did an amazing job recreating my nans platinum diamond ring to bring it back to its former glory. The remake of the ring was absolutely stunning and their service was second to none. They showed great empathy and understanding of how important it was to me to keep it in the family.

Amanda Jane Love
We had some gold from relatives that had passed away, and it was not jewellery that we would wear, so James made a beautiful ring for my fiancé with it, as he didn’t have one. He had lots of ideas and suggestions, was very professional, helpful and friendly. He also made my engagement ring smaller for me and they were both ready within a week! Fantastic service and I would highly recommend!

Linda Barton
James has made me a lovely ring from some gold of my late sister, he designed it to go with a previous one he made for me from my aunts engagement ring.something to treasure. I can’t speak more highly of this exceptional jeweller. Would not go anywhere else. Always a lovely welcome in the shop, nothing too much trouble.
Lucia Hills
This Jewellers is honest, friendly, and pretty amazing. Sarah is the perfect person to make you feel instantly welcome and at ease, and she adds more of that special something than any diamond could offer. she is very helpful and keen to give a helpful opinion if needed or necessary. The quality of the Jewellery is amazing and you are left feeling that you have been given a piece of something special and the layaway service is ultra handy for spreading the cost when you may need to.
Zoe Hewes
James & all the team are incredible at what they do, really know their stuff & always go out their way to help you which is why we wouldn’t go anywhere else & we’ve been getting all our jewellery & watches from them for years now. They designed my engagement ring from scratch which I absolutely love & all repairs & cleaning are a second to none service. Everyone is so friendly & make you feel really welcome. Honestly if you haven’t visited this Jewelers your missing out. Just wanna say a personal thank you to them all.
