Frequently Asked Questions About Our Handcrafted Rings
We are happy to make custom and personalized orders, as essentially everything we make is custom :). We’ll definitely do what we can to make just what you’re looking for if we’re able. Just contact us with what you’d like us to make and we’ll let you know if it’s something we can do. We are glad to work with you to create the perfect ring.
Our inlay rings are stabilized and given a durable, water-resistant finish. You can clean your ring with a jewelry polishing cloth, a soft cloth and any furniture polish, or even olive oil on a soft cloth. We’d suggest keeping your ring away from anything caustic that could damage the finish or allowing it to soak for long periods. If your finish is ever damaged or needs reapplying, we can do that for just $10 for the life of your ring. We also can replace a damaged inlay at any time for the same cost.
All of our rings come in a small, handcrafted wooden ring box that is perfect for gift giving. If you’re sending a gift, let us know – we can include a note and ensure that there’s no receipt included.
Our rings are not resizable. We can sometimes make an existing ring larger by about half a size, but never more than that, and we can never make them smaller. We recommend using our ring sizer for a good fit to avoid any issues with sizing. There’s no charge for our sizer, just let us know you need one mailed when you place your order – we’ll be glad to send one. If we need to make a ring larger by more than half a size or make a ring smaller, that means beginning again with a new ring. For this, we ask for return of the original ring and half its cost. A remake will take the same time to make as a regular order; three to four weeks. Please let us know about any sizing issues within 30 days of receipt of your ring.
If there is a problem with your order, just let us know. We are committed to ensuring that our customers love their rings, and are glad to work out issues with orders. While we don’t refund our custom made rings, we’re more than happy to work within our policies to make sure that all of our customers are happy with their rings from Rob and Lean. Customer satisfaction is our ultimate goal.
We can be reached via email at [email protected], and by phone at our retail location at (417) 962-0357 (our hours are 8 am to 4:30 pm central, Monday through Friday.)
We guarantee all of our rings to be free of defects in manufacture for 90 days after receipt. (This does not include resizing rings.)
We can engrave up to 20 characters in our rings; just let us know what you’d like engraved in the notes box at checkout. Limit your engraving to letters and numbers and simple punctuation.
We use real hardwoods and stone in our inlays; for this reason, you should expect variations in your ring versus the image in the listing you order. The color and grain pattern can vary from inlay to inlay just as color and grain varies in different pieces of wood. We will not guarantee that a ring will look exactly like the image in our listing, although we do promise to use the variety shown and to use the best quality wood and stone that we can obtain. Your ring by Rob and Lean is a unique custom piece :).
We need 2-3 weeks to complete an order. Often, rings ship earlier than this production time.
We use standard US ring sizing, including half and quarter sizes. If you don’t know what size ring you need, we will be glad to mail you a ring sizer free of charge, after you place an order. Just let us know that you need a sizer when you check out. If you get sized at a department store jewelry counter or another jeweler, we will not be responsible for missized rings. Unfortunately, not all sizing tools are created equally. The best way to figure size if you really don’t know is to get our free ring sizer mailed. Wider rings fit more snugly than narrower rings of the same size, so if you’re ordering a wider band, it’s a good idea to order up a bit for comfort.
