Jewellery Services

Restoring your jewellery can significantly extend its life while preserving its original character and charm, especially if it has sentimental value.

This process may involve rebuilding settings, replacing claws, repolishing or resetting stones, and even diamond and gemstone recutting. We can also source and replace missing gemstones within an existing setting, ensuring your cherished pieces are beautifully restored rather than replaced.

The heart of the McCabe legacy lies in over a century of experience and passion for premium craftsmanship and personalized service. From the very first days as McCabe Tailors in 1878, the McCabe vocation evolved to diamond setting, opal exporting and later retail jewellery manufacturing as business legacies passed from generation to generation. This tradition continues today as Gerard McCabe Jewellers, Adelaide’s premiere destination for premium bridal, Australian gemstone and tailor made jewellery designs.

Our award-winning team includes accredited gemologists, diamond technologists, diamond graders, qualified jewellers and accredited valuers. With over 100 years combined industry experience, rest assured that we are equipped to attend to your unique needs, tailor made with care and attention.

At Gerard McCabe, we have a strong heritage in buying and selling Antique and secondhand jewellery. We are always on the lookout for Antique and Vintage jewellery that is in top condition. We are also interested in buying pink diamonds. In particular, Argyle certified pink diamonds.

We offer both cash payment for a purchase (into your nominated bank account) or store credit to use towards any purchase/repair.

We have a range of flexible consultation options such as the ability to give you a private appointment in our store or office, video consultations, or we may be able to come to you. Give us a call to find out more.

Some examples of what we buy are:

• Antique or Vintage jewellery pieces which are in very good or excellent condition. To understand the quality of the jewellery that we tend to purchase browse our current Antique jewellery collection.
• Pink diamonds from the Argyle mine, including both jewellery and investment diamonds.
