Return windows

Refund, exchange, or store credit

For online orders, the return window starts the day your piece is delivered. For in-store purchases, they start the day of your purchase.

5 business days

Original payment method

Bring your unworn piece back within 7 days, and we'll refund you to the card or method you paid with. In-store, we refund you at the counter, on the spot. All returns are subject to a restocking fee of 4%.

30 days

Exchange or store credit

For 30 days after your purchase or delivery, we're glad to exchange your piece for something else, or issue store credit for the full amount. Store credit never expires.

Bought between November 1 and December 24? Items eligible for return can be returned until January 15th. Returns to the original payment method are subject to a restocking fee of 4%. Items must be unworn, unused, and in their original condition.

Returning by mail

If you've moved away or bought online, you can mail your piece back. Please contact us before shipping anything — packages sent without contacting us first can't be accepted.

01

Call or email first

Reach us at (209) 529-2110 or info@gabrielfinejewelers.com before shipping anything back. We'll confirm your return and walk you through it. Packages sent without contacting us first can't be accepted.

02

Ship it insured

Send your piece via UPS or FedEx, overnight or 2-day, insured for the full purchase price with signature required. Any piece shipped to us uninsured travels at your risk — we can't be responsible for a package lost or damaged before it reaches us.

03

We inspect and email you

Once your piece arrives we'll inspect it and email you within 2 business days to confirm what we found and what happens next.

04

Who pays shipping

Return shipping is the customer's responsibility — except when the issue is a manufacturing defect. If something left our store with a flaw in the workmanship, we cover shipping both ways.

What happens next

When your refund lands

In-store: Refunds go back to your original payment method within 5 business days, though your bank may take a few more days to post it.

By mail: Once your piece arrives, we'll inspect it and email you within 2 business days. Approved refunds go back to your original payment method within 5 business days, though your bank may take a few more days to post it.

If it's been more than 10 business days since we approved your refund, please call us at (209) 529-2110.

Custom & special orders

Made for you, and no one else.

A 50% deposit is required to begin. Once we've started work, that deposit is non-refundable. Custom and special orders are final sale.

Completed orders are held for 60 days after we notify you they're ready. If we haven't heard from you by then, we'll reach out again before doing anything else.

After the return window

Keeping it is the beginning, not the end.

Every piece of fine jewelry we sell carries our Limited Lifetime Warranty, free, for as long as you own it — prong retipping, stone tightening, unlimited cleaning and polishing, and your first resizing included.

That coverage applies to custom pieces and final sale items exactly the same as anything in our cases.
