Jewelry Warranty Policy

Thoughtful care, clear protection, and expert workmanship for the jewelry you treasure.

01

Limited Manufacturer's Warranty

We proudly stand behind the quality of our jewelry. All new jewelry purchases include a one-year limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship from the original date of purchase.

If a manufacturing defect is found during the warranty period, we will, at our discretion:

  • Repair the item at no charge.
  • Replace the item with the same or a comparable item if repair is not possible.
  • Issue store credit if replacement is unavailable.

All warranty claims are subject to inspection by our jewelry professionals.

02

What Is Covered

This warranty covers manufacturing defects such as:

  • Loose or defective settings due to workmanship.
  • Defective clasps, hinges, or closures.
  • Faulty solder joints.
  • Defects in materials or craftsmanship.

03

What Is Not Covered

This warranty does not cover:

  • Normal wear and tear.
  • Scratches, dents, or worn finishes.
  • Bent rings or damaged prongs caused by impact.
  • Lost or stolen jewelry.
  • Lost or chipped diamonds or gemstones resulting from accidental damage or lack of routine maintenance.
  • Damage caused by misuse, abuse, chemical exposure, or unauthorized repairs.
  • Jewelry that has been altered or repaired by another jeweler.

04

Complimentary Inspection and Cleaning

We recommend bringing your jewelry in every six months for a complimentary inspection and professional cleaning.

Routine inspections help identify worn prongs, loose stones, or other issues before they become larger problems.

Failure to have recommended inspections may affect eligibility for certain warranty claims involving preventable damage.

05

Optional Lifetime Jewelry Protection Plan

Customers may purchase our Lifetime Jewelry Protection Plan at the time of purchase or within 30 days of purchase.

The Protection Plan includes:

  • Unlimited professional cleaning and polishing.
  • Prong tightening.
  • Rhodium plating (white gold).
  • Ring sizing (within standard size limits).
  • Stone tightening.
  • Clasp adjustments.
  • Inspection every six months.
  • Coverage for workmanship repairs resulting from normal wear.

The Protection Plan does not cover:

  • Lost or stolen jewelry.
  • Intentional damage.
  • Loss of center diamonds or gemstones unless specifically included in the plan.
  • Excessive abuse or neglect.

Some repairs may require additional charges depending on the condition of the jewelry.

06

Warranty Claim Process

To submit a warranty claim:

  1. Present the jewelry with proof of purchase.
  2. Allow our jewelry professionals to inspect the item.
  3. We will determine whether the issue is covered under this warranty or, if applicable, the Protection Plan.

Approved warranty repairs will be completed at no charge.

Repair times vary depending on the nature of the repair.

07

Warranty Limitations

This warranty applies only to the original purchaser and is non-transferable.

Our liability is limited to the purchase price of jewelry. We reserve the right to repair, replace, or issue store credit at our sole discretion.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may also have other rights that vary by state.
