Is there a warranty on my Highland Diamond Jewelry?
All Items: For all items purchased at or through Highland Diamond, we offer complimentary cleaning, polishing, rhodium plating and sizing.
Brands: Some of the brands we carry offer a 1-2 year warranty. If the item you purchased does offer a warranty, we will include the information with your shipped package so you can register your piece under their warranty.
Custom and Personal Line of Fine Jewelry: We stand behind the quality and integrity of our custom and personal line of fine jewelry. Within six months, we will repair any damages directly related to the creation process. For items that include gems, there is a risk of stone loss with normal wear and tear. To minimize this risk, we recommend taking proper care of your pieces by cleaning and checking prongs periodically. We recommend checking your prongs as well as allowing us to check your prongs at least 1-2 times a year. For clients who are not local, you can ship it to us for inspection. We carefully inspect each piece to determine the cause of the damage and if the repair is covered under our warranty. If we find the damage to be the fault of the wearer and not the jewelers, we will happily repair your item, but you will be responsible for the cost of repair. For example, if we find a gemstone is missing because a prong is broken or lifted, this is an indication the wearer damaged the item and therefore, would not be covered under the warranty.
Defects or Shipping Damages: If your item arrives defective or damaged, we're happy to repair or replace it for you! Please email us at info@highlanddiamond.com within 14 days of delivery, if this is the case. For anything outside of the 14 day period, please reach out to us directly for further help. Your item must be unused and in its original packaging. We reserve the right to refuse any replacement requests if we believe the items are intentionally damaged or misused.
Jewelry Care & Insurance
Jewelry Care
Fine jewelry is delicate and should be cared for accordingly. To extend the life of your jewelry and keep them in optimal condition please follow the following care instructions:
- Remove jewelry before applying shower product, lotion, perfume, or other chemical and/or oil compounds.
- Leave your jewelry at home before engaging in strenuous activities including going to the gym!
- Before bedtime, lay your jewelry out flat.
- Clasp necklaces when storing to prevent tangles.
- Take extra care with pearl pieces.
How do I insure my new jewelry?
We highly recommend insuring your Highland Diamond jewelry as soon as possible! Jewelers Mutual can provide a stand-alone policy or you can add jewelry to your homeowners insurance. You will need to reference the appraisal provided with your jewelry.
Customs Designs
How far in advance should I start the design process?
We recommend starting at least 2 months prior to when you wish to have the finished piece in hand.
How far in advance should I choose a stone for an engagement ring or custom piece?
We recommended finalizing your stone selection at least 1 month prior to when you want the completed piece in hand. This ensures that there is enough time between the designing and creation of your piece, which typically takes 4 weeks.
Do you assist with updating settings?
Of course - we would be delighted to update your setting! Schedule a consultation with one of our specialized consultants to get started on creating your design.
Do you set stones?
We are happy to work with you on designing the perfect setting to best enhance the stone you already have.
How does payment work for a custom piece?
A 50% deposit is required once you are ready to move forward with a design and stones. The remaining balance is due upon the completion of your piece.
