Our Commitment to Lasting Beauty: The Mingren Jewelry Warranty
At Mingren Jewelry, we stand behind the exceptional quality and craftsmanship of every piece of jewelry we create. Your satisfaction and the enduring beauty of your cherished adornment are our top priorities. This Warranty outlines our commitment to you and the coverage provided for your Mingren Jewelry purchase.
Warranty Coverage
Mingren Jewelry offers a Lifetime Warranty on all jewelry against manufacturing defects from the date of purchase.
This warranty specifically covers:
- Manufacturing defects: Faulty construction or assembly issues that arise from the original craftsmanship.
- Material defects: Imperfections in the precious metal setting that are a direct result of the manufacturing process (e.g., porosity, incorrect alloy).
- Loose gemstones/jadeite (due to setting): If a gemstone or jadeite becomes loose within its setting due to a manufacturing defect in the setting itself.
What is NOT Covered
This warranty does NOT cover:
- Normal Wear and Tear: Scratches, dents, tarnishing, stretching of chains, dulling of metal, or general wear from daily use.
- Damage Due to Misuse or Neglect:
- Accidental Damage: Chipping, breaking, or scratching of gemstones/jadeite caused by impact (e.g., knocking against hard surfaces).
- Physical Damage: Dents, bends, breaks, or cracks in the metal settings due to impact, force, or excessive stress.
- Exposure to Chemicals: Damage caused by contact with chemicals, perfumes, lotions, household cleaners, swimming pools, or hot tubs, which can erode metal and dull gemstones.
- Improper Storage: Damage from not storing jewelry properly (e.g., storing pieces together causing scratches).
- Loss or Theft: This warranty does not cover lost or stolen items or missing gemstones/jadeite.
- Third-Party Alterations: Damage caused by repair, resizing, or alteration performed by anyone other than Mingren Jewelry or our authorized service providers. Any such unauthorized work will void this warranty.
- Natural Characteristics of Gemstones/Jadeite: The warranty covers the integrity of the setting, but not the inherent characteristics of natural stones that may be susceptible to damage (e.g., natural inclusions, cleavage points in gemstones that can lead to chipping if impacted).
