1. Every person, firm or corporation engaged in performing work upon any watch, clock

or jewelry, for a price, shall have a lien upon the watch, clock or jewelry for the

by the lienholder in connection with the work. 2. If any account for work done or materials furnished shall remain unpaid for 1 year

after completing the work, the lienholder may, upon 30 days' notice in writing to

the owner specifying the amount due and informing the owner that the payment of the

amount due within 30 days will entitle the owner to redeem the property, sell any

such article or articles at public or bona fide private sale to satisfy the account. 3. The notice may be served by registered or certified mail with return receipt demanded,

directed to the owner's last known address, or, if the owner or his or her address

be unknown, it may be posted in two public places in the town or city where the property

is located. 4. The proceeds of the sale, after paying the expenses thereof, shall first be applied

to liquidate the indebtedness secured by the lien, and the balance, if any, shall

be paid over to the owner. 5. Nothing contained in this section shall be construed as preventing the lienholder

from waiving the lien herein provided for, and suing upon the amount if the lienholder

elects to do so.
