Made-to-Order Rings, Custom, Bespoke or Engraved Items
All made-to-order wedding and engagement rings, as well as engraved jewelry, custom and bespoke items, are made to order and are final sale unless otherwise listed as "in stock," "ready to ship," or "ships now."
However, if there is an issue with your item upon receipt, please contact us immediately. In the unlikely event of a manufacturing defect, we will work with you to arrange a repair or exchange for the same item.
Order Cancellations
- Cancellation requests must be made within 48 hours of placing the order and before the order has shipped.
Free Resizing
We offer one free resizing per ring (for most band rings without stones) up to ½ size larger or smaller, within one year of receiving the ring. You are only responsible for shipping both ways.
- Rings with flush-set stones cannot be resized.
- Resizing engraved rings may damage the engraving.
- Beyond the first free resizing, additional resizing is available for a fee.
Please contact us before sending a ring back for resizing.
We strongly recommend having your finger professionally sized multiple times before ordering a ring. Printable ring size charts are often inaccurate.

Covered under warranty:
- Free setting inspection and repair
- Free replacement of lost accent stones (.10 ct or smaller) within six months

Fine jewelry requires regular maintenance. Rings, especially those with prongs, should be inspected periodically and re-tipped when necessary.
