Please keep in mind that each piece of our jewelry is made by hand, and as such each piece will have unique artisanal qualities. Please use appropriate care to ensure the longevity of your pieces.  We recommend gently wiping the 18k gold surfaces with a polishing cloth. Precious gemstones are delicate and should not be cleaned with polishing cloths or ultrasonic cleaners. Inclusions can be seen in natural stones and are a part of their beauty. Please keep your jewelry out of the way of perfume and please remove jewelry while washing hands & face as certain washing aids can damage and/or cloud precious gemstones.

Please include your name, description of the repair required, image of the damage, and proof of purchase (including date and vendor). Repairs are reviewed on a case by case basis, and our ability to repair pieces will depend upon the nature of the damage and will be subject to charges. We reserve the right to decline repairs based upon the extent damage or other relevant factors.

If we are able to repair your piece, we will issue you an RA number and shipping instructions. Repairs generally take 2-6 weeks to complete depending on the nature of the repair. As soon as your repair is completed we will return your item and will notify you with an email and tracking number as soon as it ships.
