Losing a diamond
Our pieces at Elements Studio NYC are delicate and should be gently worn. Fine jewelry with small diamonds that have pave settings are not as strong and vulnerable to loss. The size of the diamonds determines the strength and stability of the setting. That being said the loss of a diamond on our pieces cannot always be prevented. If you lose a diamond there will be a minimal charge to cover replacing stone and setting stone and this will be handled on an individual basis.

If you plan on stacking rings we recommend that you go up ½ size. If you have no way of getting your ring size email us and we will be happy to find a way to help. Info@ElementsStudio.NYC
