A specialized advantage
Precision, measured
in millimeters.
One of Jerry’s specialties is laser welding: a controlled way to place tiny welds in challenging areas of jewelry, often with less surrounding heat than traditional torch-based repair.
Why it matters
Fine work calls for fine control.
Laser welding concentrates energy into small, targeted areas. For certain repairs, that level of control can help preserve fine details and provide better access in hard-to-reach spots.
It can be useful for intricate jewelry and some designs with delicate or heat-sensitive components. Whether it is appropriate for a particular piece depends on the metal, stone, construction and condition.

Questions, answered
Laser welding, explained.
Is laser welding safe for every gemstone?
No method is automatically safe for every gemstone or setting. Jerry assesses each piece and chooses whether to use laser welding, traditional methods or other precautions.
Does laser welding replace traditional jewelry skills?
No. It complements Jerry’s traditional tools and methods. Experience is still essential to deciding how and where to work.
Can it help an antique piece?
It can be especially useful for some antique repairs because the energy can be targeted. The condition of the piece still determines the recommended process.
Do I need an appointment?
Walk-ins are welcome, but appointments are useful for delicate or complicated work.
