The engagement ring warranty is made to protect you from any potential design or manufacturing flaws. As a large value purchase, these rings are typically insured and valued according to the market price. If you purchase a ring, only to have it break within a year or two, it goes without saying that you will want to recover your losses. Most warranties cover any issues that do not fall under wear and tear or any damage caused by accidents, hazardous activities, loss or theft. Most reputable jewellers will replace or refund the value of the ring if the fault lies in the manufacture of the engagement ring.
The Importance of Engagement Ring Warranty
Some of the most important reasons to ensure that your engagement ring is covered by warranty include the following:
Warranties are a good reflection of quality.
If you purchase a ring from the cheapest possible outlet, such as a price match comparison website, for example, or a large jewellery retail chain that specialises in budget rings, you may save a few Rand, but you will likely not have the assurance that your ring was made to last. A reputable jeweller, on the other hand, knows that a warranty is a reflection of their craftsmanship. Not only will you have a warranty that covers any manufacturing defects, but you will also have an expert craftsman who is able to repair and restore any breakages that may occur over the years. Be very wary of any jeweller that does not offer a warranty as a standard part of the ring purchase.
Warranties give you peace of mind.
Whether you are buying a ring as a surprise for your future wife, or you are choosing a ring together, this decision is not always without its stress. This type of ring is an investment, and, as such, it should not be purchased in a hurry or on the spot. Add-on services such as warranties and diamond certification papers will help take away some of the worries, giving you peace of mind that you have chosen the right person to create this special piece of jewellery. Be wary if you are ever pushed into making a purchase without any sort of certification, warranty or paperwork.
With that said, it is also good to understand that this type of warranty is unique. Unlike a television or appliance, these rings are made to be worn day in and day out. They should always be made to withstand a relative amount of wear and tear. A price match guarantee will put your mind at rest, but what will add even more peace of mind is a ring that is made to last. Choosing a ring designer that makes custom made rings that use the highest quality metals and stones, and designs that will not easily catch, break or fade is the best way to be sure that your ring will last through each decade.
