I recently took my mother's and grandmother's diamond rings into Jan and Dan Howes. The one needed repair and I wanted the other checked over as it is old. I knew they kept the items in house so I didn't have to worry about them being sent somewhere, which was a plus. I am SO delighted with the results! Both rings (70 and 100 years old) look BRAND NEW and I know the diamonds are secure in their settings. I now wear my "new" diamonds and enjoy their sparkle! I'm sure Mom and Grandma are looking down and happy to see them being worn instead of in the drawer. Thanks Jan!
