Recutting	Misshapen or chipped facets of the diamond are cut and polished to make a more appealing diamond. This will result in a smaller, but more beautiful diamond.	Call for Quote*
Diamond evaluation, shipping and shipping insurance	Inspection of your diamond(s) for treatment potential.

How to Proceed:

Call Us
We would very much like to discuss your diamond with you. Since not all diamonds can be clarity enhanced, We would like to ask you a couple of questions about the appearance of yours to see if it might be worth your while to send it to us. Please call us 800.660.8885. Of course we would need to inspect your diamond before we can make a definite recommendation. Our office hours are 8:30am to 5:30pm Mountain Time (USA). Leave a message after hours and we will call you back.

Print out and sign the client agreement form. This form is where you declare your insured value for the return of your diamonds and also agree to have us perform the services.

Ship the Diamond
We recommend shipping to us via Registered Mail, return receipt requested. Pack the diamond well, but do not include any fancy gift or jewelry boxes that you would like to have returned. Include your treatment agreement from the previous step complete with complete contact information and payment of $30 for evaluation and return shipping to you (international shipments higher). Insure it for its entire value. Ship to:

Leshem Corporation
1027 Salazar Rd, Suite E
Taos, NM 87571
USA

Do not write any words on the outside that would indicate that there is jewelry or other valuable items inside.

(Attention clients outside of the United States, we service clients worldwide. When shipping your diamond to us, we recommend declaring it as "personal item being sent for repair, to be returned after completion." This wording usually prevents duties from being charged in either direction, but you may wish to inquire locally as to how this shipment should be declared. You must pay any applicable duties or tariffs assessed.)

We will call you. After we receive your diamond, we will evaluate it and let you know our final recommendation as to the treatment methods, likelihood of success, final cost estimation, and to get your authorization to proceed. Allow 10-15 days for treatment.
