How to Fix a Broken Necklace

Necklaces can add an elegant finishing touch to any look and also allow you to express yourself through fashion. However, necklace chains can be especially delicate pieces which make their loss even more tragic. While it might be tempting to simply replace the piece altogether with something newer, there are several effective strategies you can employ in order to repair a broken chain so it looks as good as new.

One of the easiest ways to repair a necklace chain is with jump rings. These small metal rings can easily open and close, making them the ideal solution for necklace chains. Before beginning, gather all materials needed, including jewelry pliers, wire cutters, jump rings and any larger-than-needed pliers that may not fit through tiny gaps in the necklace chain.

Once you have all your supplies ready, use pliers to remove the last chainring before the break occurred. If it occurred at a clasp instead, this step can be skipped; otherwise if your chain is plated it may require stripping its coating first before continuing with further steps in this process.

Next, open the ring that connects the necklace’s clasp with your pliers and connect it to the other side of its chain before closing it using an iron pincer.

Crimp the clasp and ring securely with the rest of the chain to avoid coming undone or becoming tangled; if plated clasps require replating after being attached to their chain.

With these simple steps, it’s possible to repair your necklace without spending extra money on a brand new one. Just take care when handling the chain as this could cause more damage – bend and twisting can further distort its form and breakage may occur as a result.

Fixing a Broken Bracelet

Breaking a beloved bracelet can be heartbreaking, particularly if it’s brand new and trendy, or worse a family heirloom.

Before beginning, gather all your supplies. You will require pliers and clasp replacement pliers suited to the size of your chain; additional tools such as tweezers and magnifying lenses as well as a flat surface may be needed for repair purposes.

After identifying the location of the break in your bracelet, the next step will be identifying its source. If your necklace has just snapped in two, reconnect the broken ends using jump rings; use your pliers to open up the last chainring where the break began; this should make it slightly smaller but still strong enough to support a jump ring connection.

If your necklace features open links, begin by unlinking its closure using needle nose pliers to make closing it easier. Crimp the ring or clasp onto this new link to secure it firmly; alternatively use an existing clasp from another necklace instead if one is available.

Attach the replacement clasps to the remaining rings on both ends of your necklace using proportionate pliers to the size of your chain. If using an old clasp as part of a seamless rejoin, make sure it matches with its replacement for optimal results.

Rope chains are elegant in appearance, but can be tricky to repair when they break. Soldering is possible; however, more intricate processes may be necessary before successful repairs can take place.
