I provide a manufacturer's limited warranty on all of my pieces. If you have any specific questions I would be happy to answer them at bling@exodusgoldsmiths.com.
What Is Covered:
All repairs and resizing within 1 year of purchase.
Correction of any manufacturing defects.
Professional cleaning and inspections (excluding shipping).
Our current timeline for repairs is 1-2 weeks from when I receive your piece, depending on the complexity of the repair.
What Is Not Covered:
If your piece's repair needs fall beyond normal wear and tear, such as wearing your piece to the gym, gardening, etc.
The warranty is void if you take your piece to another jeweler for resizing or repair work.
Center stones are not guaranteed underneath this warranty and are highly recommended to be insured by a third-party like Jewelers Mutual.
Theft and loss is not covered on any of my pieces. Please insure your pieces upon receiving them!
The discoloration of precious metals caused by chemicals, make-up, immersion in pools and hot tubs, PH of skin, or bathing.
No, I do not work with stones purchased from other companies. I have no way of verifying where the stone originated from or if the stone is what you believe it to be. My jewelers insurance company will not cover loss or damage to a stone I did not supply. However, if it is an antique or heirloom diamond or gemstone I may be able to work with it!
Each piece of jewelry I sell is hand crafted and made to order. I do not accept returns or exchanges on any of my pieces, especially custom or personalized merchandise (custom, sized and engraved pieces).
Why? In order to keep my costs reasonably low in comparison to other fine jewelry brands, I keep little/no live inventory. Once an order is placed I immediately order in the required materials to hand craft the piece. These materials are not refundable by my suppliers, and if I was to accept refunds and exchanges, then I would be liable for the balance of the unused materials and labor costs.
EXCEPTIONS TO THE RETURN/REFUND POLICY-
Jewelry in the "Ready to Ship" section can be returned within 30 days of purchase. Rings purchased from the "Ready to Ship" section that have been sized before shipment are not eligible for returns.
The only exception for returns is if the piece is delivered in poor condition, or is not as described in the listing. Please read the descriptions of the piece carefully before making your purchase. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns!
Please confirm appropriate sizing for rings prior to placing an online order.
All normal wear and tear repairs are covered within the first 1 year of purchase (not including insured shipping). Please refer to our limited manufacturer warranty FAQ answer. Ring sizing tools are available for purchase on our Jewelry Care page.
Any returned merchandise must be unused and unworn, in the original condition and in the original box; along with the certificates, warranty cards and explanation booklets intact. Debit and credit purchases will only be refunded on the original card. Gift card purchases will be issued a merchandise credit only. Gift cards are not redeemable for cash. Shipping charges will not be refunded.
​
Every piece I make is made-to-order. When an order is placed, I purchase the necessary materials and begin working to complete it ASAP. If you wish to cancel a non-custom order, please be aware that there is a 20% restocking fee to help cover my costs. Non-custom orders must be canceled within 3 business days of the order being placed in order to receive the partial refund.​ Please contact me ASAP via email at bling@exodusgoldsmiths.com to begin the cancellation process.
I make every effort to process orders as fast as possible. Since I'm a small, independent busines and each piece is made by hand, and made to order, please allow:​
1-4 weeks for production time for necklaces, gemstone rings, earrings, and bracelets.
3-8 weeks for production time for engagement rings.
Custom Designs and Heirloom Re-Designs take 4-6 weeks to complete.
​
Orders placed over the weekend will not be processed until the following Monday. Your purchase will ship as soon as it is completed, and you will receive an email notifying you that it has shipped. If your order is time sensitive, please do not hesitate to contact me and I will do everything I can to accommodate you!
All orders are shipped via FedEx or UPS with tracking, signature required, and delivery confirmation. Please contact me if you have any special shipping or gift wrapping requests.
All international packages are legally declared at full value of the item, so please note that they will likely have duty or custom fees once delivered in your country. Exodus Goldsmiths is not responsible to pay these fees, or responsible for any delays due to customs. Clients are responsible for paying any custom fees or VAT taxes in the EU.
Exodus Goldsmiths is not liable for any lost, stolen or unclaimed packages, please be sure your shipping situation is safe and secure to ensure smooth delivery. I am also not responsible for incorrect addresses. I ship to the address provided at checkout, unless requested otherwise via email. I am not responsible for replacing packages marked as Delivered by the courier.
A signature from an adult (that is, someone 21 years old or older) will be required upon delivery if your total purchase amount is $1,000 or more and sent to a residential address or $35,000 or more and sent to a business address. Otherwise, we use signature confirmation. We’d hate for you to incur any rerouting fees, so, if necessary, please ensure you provide a shipping address where an adult will be present to sign for your package.
Important Note: For security and insurance reasons, we are unable to ship to a PO Box, hotel address, or freight forwarding company and we have to handle all shipping communication (i.e., changes in shipping information, rerouting, etc.) on your behalf. So please let us know if any changes need to be made. Any reroutes made must have the same zip code as the original address.
No, as this is unethical. If you happen to fall in love with a ring and want it exactly like it is, we recommend that you work directly with that designer. If you have styles that you want to use as inspiration, I would love to work with you to create a new, unique design!
Exodus Goldsmiths is my small private studio in San Diego, California and is not currently accepting in-person appointments. Keep an eye out for an announcement on this coming 2026!
If you scroll down to the footer of the website, there are links to both the Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions pages under "Learn More".
I only repair jewelry pieces that I made myself. For repairs on pieces made elsewhere, please visit a local jeweler!
I provide written appraisals for insurance purposes only on pieces that I have personally created from start to finish. At this time, I do not offer appraisal services for jewelry made elsewhere.
