Warranty & Care

At Ruby Harper Fine Jewelry, each piece is thoughtfully crafted and carefully inspected before it reaches you. Our warranty is designed to offer peace of mind while setting clear, thoughtful expectations for long-term wear.

The Ruby Harper Promise & Warranty

We stand behind the craftsmanship of every Ruby Harper piece. All custom and ready-to-ship jewelry is protected by a two-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects, beginning on the date of delivery.

This warranty is intended to cover issues related to the original craftsmanship or construction of your piece, including structural defects in the band or setting, assembly or soldering defects, and prong or setting issues determined to be the result of a manufacturing defect.

If you experience an issue within the two-year warranty period, please contact us so we can evaluate your piece. If the issue is confirmed to be a manufacturing defect, the necessary repair will be completed at no cost to you.

Sizing, Resizing & Repairs

Custom pieces are made to your size from the start. Ready-to-ship pieces are listed in their current size, and sizing at the time of purchase is complimentary.

Resizing or repair work after delivery is a paid service, priced according to the work involved. We are always glad to take care of it for you, and for any work outside a covered warranty repair, clients are responsible for insured shipping in both directions.

You are equally welcome to use a qualified local bench jeweler, and doing so will not void your warranty. Please note that damage resulting from work performed by another jeweler is not covered.

Whichever you prefer, reach out and we will gladly advise on what your piece needs before any work is done.

Some designs, particularly those with hand engraving or a continuous pattern around the band, cannot be resized without interrupting the design. Where this applies, it is noted in the product description.

What the Warranty Does Not Cover

The warranty does not cover normal wear, accidental damage, or loss unless the issue is determined to be the direct result of a manufacturing defect.

Examples of issues not typically covered include:

  • Scratches, dents, or bent bands from everyday wear
  • Chipped, cracked, or lost stones caused by impact or wear over time
  • Damage from chemicals, skincare products, or environmental exposure
  • Normal wear and tear, such as worn-down prongs, scratches, or bent bands
  • Loss of center stones (we strongly recommend independent jewelry insurance)
  • Damage resulting from work performed by an outside jeweler

If a lost stone or similar issue is believed to be caused by a manufacturing defect, it will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis within the warranty period.

Vintage & Antique Jewelry

Due to their age and one-of-a-kind nature, vintage and antique pieces are sold as-is and are not covered under warranty.

Returns on vintage items are accepted in accordance with our Return Policy.

Warranty Repairs

For approved warranty repairs, clients are responsible for insured shipping to us. Return shipping for covered repairs is provided by Ruby Harper Fine Jewelry.

Jewelry Care Guide

Fine jewelry is designed to be worn and loved. With thoughtful care, your piece can be enjoyed for generations.

Everyday Wear

We recommend removing your jewelry during:

  • Exercise or strenuous activity
  • Cleaning, gardening, or household chores
  • Swimming, showering, or bathing
  • Sleeping

These activities can place unnecessary stress on settings and expose jewelry to chemicals or impact.

Stones & Settings

Prongs and settings naturally experience wear over time. To help reduce the risk of stone loss:

  • Avoid impact or pressure to the setting
  • Do not stack rings tightly against one another
  • Have your jewelry professionally inspected on a regular basis

If a stone feels loose, discontinue wear and contact us promptly.

Chemicals & Skincare

Remove jewelry before applying:

  • Lotions, oils, perfumes, or hairspray
  • Cleaning products or disinfectants

These substances can dull metal finishes and weaken settings over time.

Storage

When not worn, store jewelry:

  • Separately to prevent scratching
  • In a soft pouch or lined jewelry box
  • Away from excessive humidity or direct sunlight

Cleaning

For routine care:

  • Clean gently with warm water, mild soap, and a soft brush
  • Dry thoroughly with a lint-free cloth

Avoid ultrasonic or steam cleaners unless advised by a professional.

Professional Care

Fine jewelry benefits from periodic professional maintenance. Regular inspections help ensure stones remain secure and settings stay in good condition.

If you ever have questions about care or wear, we’re always happy to help.
