Returns & Warranty
RETURNS & WARRANTY POLICY
At Leonné we strive to ensure every piece that leaves our workshop is manufactured to an extremely high standard. Every piece of jewellery is quality checked at each stage by our designers, gemologists and our Directors.
As ALL of our creations are made to order, the below applies to all of our products
- Bespoke commissions, personalised items or engraved items are excluded from our returns policy, unless faulty or otherwise agreed in writing.
- If an item is faulty, we require the ring to be sent in full packaging, along with any certificates provided when bought.
If you have lost your GIA certificate, this can be replaced, however you must inform us at Leonné. The process to replace a certificate is lengthy and expensive, therefore we reserve the right to deduct a £350 plus an admin fee of £75 per certificate to cover the costs if your jewellery is returned without this.
If your order arrives damaged or faulty (through no fault of your own), we can repair, replace or provide you with a full refund. We would need to inspect the item prior to our decision to establish the cause of the damage.
Any replaced or repaired rings are non-returnable and non-exchangeable. In the event you exchange your item for a replacement, have had your diamond reset in another ring or have requested for a new diamond to be set in your ring - your order will be exempt from being returned or exchanged in the future.
If you are unsure of any of our policies, you may email us at enquiries@leonne.co.uk for clarification.
Bespoke purchases
As stated above bespoke purchases, personalised or engraved items are excluded from our returns policy, unless faulty. If you chose to cancel your purchase during the production stage, you may incur costs if production has started.
Faulty Returns
Returns can be made in person, or via delivery. To return an item in person, please book an appointment. For returns via delivery, we ask that you follow these important steps to return your Leonné Jewellery purchase.
- Email us on enquiries@leonne.co.uk or call us on 07515630371. You must do this before returning your item.
- Once confirmed with us, you should package your item with the original packaging. This must include your GIA or IGI diamond or gemstone certificate.

- We ask that you return items within the UK via Royal Mail Special Delivery Guaranteed, making sure the package is tracked and insured. You should also obtain proof of posting.

Things to consider
When buying diamonds or gemstones whether they are mined or lab grown they can contain inclusions, consist of irregularities in terms of colour, size, and shape. This will all be discussed with you when you visit us for your consultation. We pride ourselves on our transparency through each stage, from consultation through to the production stages.
Each item may have minor inconsistencies and irregularities to another. Variation in craftsmanship is not deemed a defect.
Jewellery will be subject to wear due to normal, day-to-day activities. We do not provide a warranty to repair, replace or refund in the event of normal wear or loss of stones. If your stone appears to be loose, please bring your jewellery in for inspection.
Our warranty does not cover theft or loss, and we therefore strongly advise that you select an appropriate insurance plan to cover your item. See our insurance advice.
