Exempt from guarantee are wear marks, wear to gem stone or diamond settings and breaking or loss of gemstones and diamonds.

Setting for gem stones or diamonds are more perceptive to damage, as they are more fragile. Therefore we advise you to have them checked free of charge yearly, so we can see if the settings are still intact and holding the stone as they should be.
