Micro-Scratch &
Surface Blemish Healing
Pixel-level healing of handling scratches, casting-seam marks, and surface blemishes introduced between the workshop and the camera, retouched without softening the metal’s real grain or its directional texture. Inputs: RAW, TIFF, PSD. Outputs: layered PSD, 300 DPI TIFF. Built for new inventory, catalogue reshoots, and pieces handled before every shoot.
Scratches Healed Without Softening a Single Grain of the Metal Beneath
A default drop shadow makes jewelry look pasted onto the surface rather than resting on it — a quiet tell that undermines a luxury product page and erodes buyer confidence.
We build each shadow in three considered layers, matched to the piece and delivered on a named PSD layer. The jewelry sits naturally, with the presence of a genuine studio capture.
Scratches and natural metal texture may appear similar, but they should never be retouched the same way. Proper healing preserves the original grain while removing only the damage
Inside the build:
- Isolate each scratch on its own non-destructive layer
- Heal tone only, leaving directional grain untouched around it
- Match repair density to the surrounding metal's texture
- Treat casting seams and handling marks as separate cases
- Verify every repair at 100% zoom before delivery
Made for :
new inventory shoots, catalogue reshoots, and any piece that picks up handling marks between the workshop and the camera.
Jewelry Dust &
Fingerprint Removal
Removal of airborne dust, static-attracted particles, and fingerprint oil film from macro jewelry photography, cleared without disturbing facet edges, specular highlights, or polished metal surfaces underneath the contamination. Inputs: RAW, TIFF, PSD. Outputs: layered PSD, 300 DPI TIFF. Built for macro product shots where every micron of contamination becomes visible.
Jewelry dust and Fingerprints Cleared Without Disturbing a Single Facet Edge
Static charge pulls dust onto polished metal the moment it leaves its case, and a fingerprint’s oil film shows as a soft grey haze under studio light — both invisible in the showroom, both obvious at macro resolution.
We clear each particle and film individually against the surrounding surface, preserving the facet edges and specular highlights a heavier cleanup pass would blur.
At macro scale, a speck of dust is not small — it is a visible defect on every viewer’s screen.
The method:
- Remove airborne dust and static-attracted particles individually
- Clear fingerprint oil film without softening specular highlights
- Preserve facet edges during every contamination removal pass
- Treat stone surfaces and metal surfaces as separate cases
- Verify every clearing pass at 100% zoom before delivery
Ideal for :
macro product photographers and studios shooting polished metal and faceted stone where contamination reads clearly at full resolution.
Photographer & Equipment
Reflection Removal
Removal of unwanted photographer, rig, and studio-ceiling reflections from mirror-polished jewelry surfaces, while carefully preserving the piece’s own legitimate ambient reflections and true highlights. Inputs: RAW, TIFF, PSD. Outputs: layered PSD, 300 DPI TIFF. Built for polished bands, mirrored facets, and any surface reflective enough to capture the shoot itself.
The Studio Itself Removed From the Very Piece It Was Photographing
A softbox, a tripod leg, or the photographer’s own silhouette shows up in a polished band or a mirrored facet, because a reflective enough surface photographs its entire surroundings along with the product.
We reconstruct the reflected zone from the surface’s own surrounding material and lighting logic, removing the equipment while keeping the ambient reflection that makes the metal read as genuinely polished.
A mirror-polished band reflects everything in the room — including the room doing the shooting.
The reconstruction process:
- Identify equipment and studio reflections on polished surfaces
- Reconstruct the zone from surrounding material and light logic
- Preserve legitimate ambient reflection that reads as genuine polish
- Match reconstructed curvature to the piece's true geometry
- Verify the repair reads correctly from multiple crop angles
Suited to :
photographers and studios shooting highly reflective bands, mirrored facets, and polished metal surfaces under studio lighting.
Pre-Owned & Estate Jewelry
Restoration Retouching
Restoration-grade retouching for pre-owned and estate jewelry, addressing wear, patina, plating loss, and dulled stones for resale, auction, and secondary-market listings across every resale channel worldwide. Inputs: RAW, TIFF, PSD. Outputs: layered PSD, 300 DPI TIFF. Built for resellers, auction houses, and secondary-market platforms listing previously owned pieces.
Estate Pieces Restored to Their True and Honest Resale Condition
A piece that has been worn for a decade carries wear a standard retouch pass isn’t built to address — plating loss at the high points, dulled facets, a patina that reads as damage rather than character under studio light.
We restore condition, colour, and shine to an accurate resale standard, addressing wear directly rather than smoothing over it, so the listing represents the piece honestly and sells with confidence.
A pre-owned piece needs an honest restoration, not a disguise — the two are not the same job.
The method:
- Address plating loss and wear at high-contact points
- Restore dulled facets to their accurate stone colour
- Correct patina without disguising the piece's true condition
- Balance restoration against honest secondary-market representation
- Deliver a listing-ready image alongside the honest original
Built around :
pre-owned resellers, auction houses, and secondary-market platforms listing estate and previously owned jewelry.

Frequency separation and micro-scratch healing both work at the tone layer, but they solve different problems. Frequency separation polishes a clean surface for editorial presentation; micro-scratch healing removes an actual handling defect introduced after the piece left the workshop. We isolate each scratch on its own layer so the repair disappears into the surrounding grain rather than softening the metal’s real texture.
Yes. A mirror-polished band or a mirrored facet reflects its entire surroundings, including the photographer, the rig, and the studio ceiling. We reconstruct the reflected zone from the surface’s own surrounding material and lighting logic, removing the equipment while preserving the ambient reflection that makes the metal read as genuinely polished rather than flat.
Restoration retouching addresses actual wear — plating loss, dulled facets, patina — to represent a pre-owned piece honestly at its true resale condition. Standard retouching assumes a new, undamaged piece and focuses on capture-stage cleanup. We restore condition and colour without disguising genuine wear, so estate and secondary-market listings sell on accurate representation.
