Diamonds

Are your diamonds conflict-free?

Yes. Every diamond we sell is conflict-free. Our lab-grown stones have zero mining impact.

Do you offer both natural and lab-grown?

Currently Stone Theory sells only lab-grown diamonds. They are chemically identical to natural stones at a fraction of the cost.

How do I know the diamond I buy is the one I see?

Every stone comes with its independent certificate (GIA or IGI) and a direct link to verify with the issuing lab.

Rings & settings

What metals do you offer?

14K and 18K yellow gold, white gold, rose gold, and platinum. All metal is 100% recycled.

Can I resize my ring later?

Yes. Resizing is offered for a fee that depends on the style and metal — customers cover return shipping in both directions. Contact us for a resize quote before sending your piece back.

Do you offer custom designs?

Yes. We're a fully online studio — please contact us and we'll guide you through the design process from sketch to finished piece.

How do I find my ring size?

We ship a complimentary ring sizer with every first order, or you can visit a local jeweler. Email us if you need help.

Care

How do I care for my jewelry?

Avoid contact with perfume, lotion, chlorine, and harsh chemicals. Remove jewelry before showering, swimming, or exercising. Clean with a soft cloth and warm soapy water; polish gently with a jeweler's cloth to restore shine.

What about loss or theft?

We don't cover loss or theft — we recommend adding your ring to your home insurance or taking out a standalone jewelry policy. We can provide a full appraisal for this.

Returns

What's your return policy?

14 days for a full refund on unworn pieces in original condition. The customer covers return shipping. Custom-sized rings and modified settings are final sale.

How do I return something?

Email us at returns@stonetheoryusa.com and we'll send return instructions. Refunds post within 5 business days of receipt of your return.

Can I exchange for a different size or style?

Within 14 days of delivery — please contact us to arrange an exchange.
