We know that buying an engagement ring, or any piece of fine jewelry, can be a little nerve-racking.
Our team takes every step possible to ensure that your piece is perfectly crafted and exactly what you want. We also offer warranties and policies to ensure you're covered in the event that you find anything less than satisfactory.
We stand behind our jewelry 100% and we offer a comprehensive set of warranties so that you can purchase with confidence.
If you aren’t thrilled with your custom jewelry when you receive it, we’ll modify or remake it for free.
We’re confident in our industry-leading diamond guidance and pricing. If you find a diamond for sale for less somewhere else, we’ll match the price or set it for free!
We guarantee our workmanship and take responsibility for any structural defects.
All the materials (metals, diamonds, and gemstones) we sell are authentic and properly specified in your proposal agreement.
If any small accent gems (<$100 value) break or fall out of their settings in the first year after we create the ring or within a year of us performing maintenance on the ring, we’ll replace them free of charge.
When it comes to your engagement ring or any other fine jewelry you design with us, pretty close doesn’t cut it. If you aren’t thrilled with your CustomMade jewelry, we’ll modify or remake it at no additional charge!
We handpick amazing diamonds and sell them at industry-leading prices. To do this, we’ve learned the global diamond market inside out. We have access to close to 2 million diamonds at any given time, and we monitor our competitors closely to make sure that we maintain the best prices.
If you find a diamond for sale for less somewhere else, just send us a link with the GIA number and we’ll match the price. We’ll also give you advice on if we think the stone is a good choice. Given our supply networks, we typically have access to the exact same stone - if we don’t have access, you can buy the diamond elsewhere and we’ll set it for free.
We’ll let you in on some secrets about how the diamond trade works.
The diamond industry has been upended by technology over the past 15 years. We used to work with diamond wholesalers in NY and LA, but eventually we were able to track down their suppliers. The vast majority of diamonds in the world are cut in the greater Mumbai area in India. With the rise of the internet and high-quality 360 imaging, those suppliers are increasingly able to deal directly with jewelers like us without the need for a wholesaler to play broker.
In order to offer the best prices we (like most online diamond retailers) don’t hold our own diamond inventory. Instead, we give you access to inventory directly from our suppliers, which gives us access to close to 2 million diamonds at any given time. Through our supply relationships, we’re able to offer you more selection without the middleman premium.
If the size on your ring isn’t quite right, just let us know within 365 days of purchase and we’ll do one resizing for free. We’ll even handle insured shipping both ways!
We still recommend doing the best you can to get the ring size right the first time around and to help, we offer free ring sizing kits for all US-based customers. Not all rings can be resized and size changes of more than 1.5 sizes aren’t always possible without remaking the ring from scratch. We’ll remake the ring if that’s what’s required, but it does mean you’ll be without your ring during that time, which we know can be hard!
We stand behind our craftsmanship. We warrant that all items we produce will be free from manufacturing defects.
In the case of an issue with your jewelry, you may return it to us for inspection. If we determine that the item is damaged due to a manufacturing defect, we will repair or replace the item free of charge. If the item is determined not to qualify under the warranty, we will offer you options for repair or replacement at competitive pricing.
Jewelry is always at risk of issues due to normal wear and specific incidents. We do not provide warranties for wear or loss. The following is a list of examples of common jewelry issues that are not considered manufacturing defects:
If any small accent gems (<$100 value) break or fall out of their settings in the first year after we create your jewelry, we’ll replace the accent gems free of charge. This warranty extends for a year each time that you send us your piece for cleaning and routine maintenance.
Routine Maintenance: We recommend routine maintenance on your jewelry every 6-12 months, including cleaning, polishing, and checking the gem settings. This keeps your jewelry looking beautiful and your gemstones secure. We'd be happy to do this maintenance for you, including extending our Accent Stone Loss Warranty as specified above.
Center stone insurance: We do not sell insurance for your jewelry or its center stone for cases of loss or damage. To protect your investment, we highly recommend making sure your piece is insured under a homeowners, renters, or individual jewelry insurance policy. This is a common service that your insurer will be happy to provide. To make this easy, we provide the CustomMade Detailed Receipt with every purchase. The detailed receipt contains all the product information your insurance company will need to set up your policy.
This certificate states that all metals, diamonds, and gemstones in your jewelry purchased from CustomMade are delivered as specified in the project proposal.
“As specified” in the above summary refers to the following:
If your piece is not delivered as specified according to the above conditions, we will, upon your request, replace the inaccurate item with one that meets or exceeds the promised characteristics. Alternatively, CustomMade reserves the right to request a return of the item in exchange for a refund of the original purchase price.
If you make a claim under this policy, you must allow us to:
This certificate is subject to the following conditions:

We offer free, fully-insured shipping to all United States addresses. Purchases over $1,000 require a signature upon delivery for added security.
All international shipments are sent fully-insured via DHL Worldwide Express at a flat rate of $35 ($25 to Canada). Worldwide Express is DHL’s fastest service, which we find typically takes 2-5 business days including both shipping and the time required to clear customs.
Once your item has been shipped, DHL will contact you regarding any applicable VAT, tariffs, or fees charged by your local government. You are responsible for these charges, which are often the same taxes charged on domestic purchases. You can make payment directly through DHL’s online payment portal.
We ship to 50+ countries worldwide. There are a handful of countries we don’t ship to, either due to restrictions from our shipping providers or customs regulations at the shipping destination. To see if your country qualifies, start a consultation and ask us!
We ship frequently to APO, FPO, and DPO addresses. Shipments are free and fully-insured just like our domestic US shipments. As military customers are probably aware, shipments arrive reliably, but speed depends on your location. You can expect anywhere from several days up to 40 days for delivery.
