Shanklin Jewellers can bring change for better
Many people probably have a piece
of jewellery of some kind that has
perhaps been sitting in a drawer for
many years, and it seems unlikely it
will ever be worn again.
Maybe it has gone out of fashion,
or was a present that did not quite
suit the individual taste. But now
there is a simple way of ensuring it
is brought back to life and becomes
an integral part of any collection.
Robin Starkey of Shanklin
Jewellers now offers an individual
re-design service; which enables
customers to take in an item and he
will create a new, vibrant and more
desirable piece of jewellery. Designs
can be created and re-modelled to
make rings, pendants, earrings or
bangles, as the one shown in this
picture.
This re-design service on offer
can also re-cycle unused and
sentimental jewellery which can
then be kept and worn within the
family.
The designs can be very simple or
ornate, depending on the jewellery
that is being used to be re-designed.
Insurance certificates are available
for diamonds used by Imogen
Starkey, diamond specialist.
Shanklin Jewellers (opposite
Shanklin Theatre) are open Tuesday
to Saturday from 10am until 5pm.

Flowing in the
right direction
There is nothing worse than having
a plumbing or blocked drain
problem, and not being able to find
anyone to fix it.
That can now be easily solved
thanks to Wroxall-based Ready
Steady Flow. Andrew Clarke, a
specialist plumber, recently opened
his Ready Steady Flow company,
providing a 24/7service, 365 days a
year, right across the Island.
Ready Steady Flow provides
specialist blocked drain services to
the commercial and public sector,
offering high pressure drain jetting,
CCTV inspections, guttering and
down pipe clearing. And as Andrew
points out: “It doesn’t matter
whether it is in the middle of the
day or the night we do not charge
a call-out fee, only labour time. We
also offer a 20 per cent discount
for all senior citizens, and pride
ourselves on our fast service and
customer care.
He added: “We will undertake
anything and everything from a
dripping tap to a new build, and
we will beat any genuine like for
like quote. If you give us a copy of
your quote, either an existing or
alternative one, we will beat the
price. So if you're looking for a
plumber or drainage engineer on
the Island don't hesitate to call
us, and we believe you will not be
disappointed.”
