Goldsmith/Jewelry Repair

Last year I lost a stone out of my wedding band. We took it to the recommended repair place near El Mediterráneo. The stone was replaced, it was an OK job, expensive. The next day another stone fell out. I haven't worn it since.

Six months ago my engagement ring collapsed and needs some gold work.

I have absolutely no idea where to go. I had a great, affordable place in California, but I live here. (Absolutely no regrets, either!)

Any suggestions? I am suddenly having the need to have my rings back on. He wants them on too.

I gave up wearing gold here for lots of reasons, and my sweetie and I bought new silver wedding bands in Taxco during a trip there over 25 years ago. Not sure if the idea works for you, but it's food for thought. Flashing gawdy baubles here is not a good idea. Besides possibly making you a target for a mugging, they tell local comerciantes that you can pay more for their products.

But try Alberto's on the corner of Cuauhtémoc and Nicolás Bravo,
