Diamond & Gemstone Removal Policy:

At Calico Jewellers we take the utmost care in the repair, restoration and redesigning of all jewellery items entrusted to our care. Some stones may have previous damage hidden by claws. Due to the inherent nature of diamonds and coloured gemstones there is a slight risk of chipping or cracking in the unsetting, resetting of stones, or in the resizing of a ring. Calico therefore assumes no liability for any damage incurred to customers stones while in our possession.

Diamond & Gemstone Testing Policy:
We do not test client’s stones for authenticity. Therefore Calico assumes no liability for disputes of quality and grading of any customers gemstones or diamonds sent to us for reuse.

When sending items to Calico Jewellers, customers must provide pictures of the individual items, including any available documentation for each item such as appraisals or gemstone certificates.

Calico Jewellers retains the full unrestricted rights to all jewellery designs we produce for our clients, whether custom or standard, and Calico may choose to market or sell jewellery based on such designs.

At Calico Jewellers we utilize customers’ gold to create new pieces. Due to the variation of gold carat in different jewellery items, and the minor loss of gold from the melting/cleaning process, Calico asserts the right to add gold or alloys to achieve the desired weight and carat of gold needed for production. This will only be done with the knowledge and consent of the client.

Using customers’ gold may result in porosity or flaws in the final product and the Calico Manufacturing Warranty does not apply.

Gold Testing Policy:
When customers submit jewellery for reuse in a custom designed piece, or for credit towards a purchase; Calico Jewellers will test the jewellery to determine the precious metal content of each item. Customers will be informed and provided detailed descriptions of the findings. Calico assumes no liability for any discrepancies in customers’ jewellery precious metal content. Calico holds the sole determination of final precious metal content based on our testing of the precious metal.

Yes, we purchase old jewellery. We also purchase all types of precious metal items like jewellery, coins, bars, and scrap metal. If you have any items that you're considering parting with, our team is ready to assist you in transforming them into a stunning new piece of jewellery or providing cash in exchange.

Repurposing precious metals is not just a business practice for us; it's a conscious effort to reduce the demand for mining and actively contribute to the creation of new jewellery items in an environmentally friendly manner. We predominantly use recycled gold and platinum in the production of our jewellery. Learn more about how Calico practices sustainability.

NEXT STEPS:

Contact Us about sending in your precious metal items. After receiving your items our team of experts will assess the jewellery's contents and identify which elements can be repurposed. Once the assessment is complete, one of our team members will reach out to you to share a detailed summary of the value of your items and discuss the next steps on redesigning or crediting you for the value of the items. Any unusable or non-precious metal items can be shipped back to you, a shipping fee will apply.

Yes, we can help you redesign or restore your existing jewellery. We have specialized in custom designed jewellery since 1976 and will walk you through every step of the process. We understand the desire to retain the sentimental attributes and value of your old jewellery, while creating something new that you will wear with excitement.
Fill out our Custom Design Form to get started.

What if I want to make a change after seeing the 3D model?
When you are reviewing the CAD image sent by our team this is the perfect opportunity to make alterations. Two minor adjustments are included in the design cost, but if you wish to significantly alter the design or create a new concept from scratch, there will be additional fees. The fees will vary depending on the complexity, the amount of metal used in the new design, or additions of stones.

Can I use my own diamonds and gemstones?
You absolutely can. We are repurposing old jewellery into new treasures all the time. That includes using diamonds, gemstones or gold from customers pieces. We can use any diamonds and/or gemstones in the design, or a combination using your gemstones and supplying our own to achieve the look you want. Our team of experts will go over what is in the rings and advise you on how to create the most stunning piece. There are occasions where it is not possible to utilize customers diamonds or coloured gems.

*Customer stone policy:

Can I use my own gold?
At Calico Jewellers we will utilize your gold and suggest bringing it in, or shipping it to us. If it has sentimental value, we are honoured to use it to create a new treasured piece of jewellery item. Alternatively, if you have old gold laying around you can trade it in as credit towards your jewellery purchase, making it more cost-effective.

Is custom designing a ring a difficult process?
Custom design is a very detailed procedure; however, it will be a very straightforward process for you. We do all the heavy lifting on our end to assure you get a unique treasure of the highest quality. There are numerous stages creating a custom piece of jewellery and we will walk you through each stage, so you know exactly what to expect.

How long does the average “Calico Process” take?
On average our process takes approximately 4-6 weeks to design and create your item. More complex designs may take additional time.

Can the Custom Design process be rushed?
Need your bridal ring in less than 6 weeks? We can prioritize the handcrafting of your ring for a CA$300 rush fee on selected items. For more details, contact us at info@calicojewellers.com. or by phone at 778-435-2132.

Why does the CAD image of my ring look so large?
CAD Images look slightly overstated in relation to the final product you will receive. For example, the prongs may appear taller in the images than they will be when the ring is completed. Pavé set stones may not look finished because the claws that are used to secure the stones may not appear in the CAD images. Beads or milgrain will also look exaggerated in the CAD images compared to the finished jewellery after it has been polished and finished.

CALICO WARRANTY

We are committed to delivering high-quality craftsmanship in every piece of jewellery we create. Calico Jewellers Manufacturing Ltd. ("Calico") offers a free lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects on all jewellery. Custom pieces and restorations that utilize customer’s precious metals and gemstones are subject to exclusions. If you feel that you have encountered damage to your purchase due to a manufacturing error, please contact us immediately so that we may evaluate your piece. Email info@calicoj.com with photos, a short video, and a description of what the damage is, and how the damage occurred. If we determine that the damage is not a manufacturing defect via the images provided, we may not accept the item back for an evaluation.

A $75 CAD deposit will be required before the shipping of your item back to Calico for evaluation. This will cover the cost of shipping back to Calico and an evaluation by our expert jewellers to determine if the damage is warrantied. If the warranty claim is deemed a manufacturing defect, Calico will repair the warrantied damage, or replace the item when appropriate, without charge, and the initial deposit will be refunded in full. We also offer complimentary return shipping back to the customer for all warrantied repairs. Damages that are determined not to be a manufacturing defect, and are repairable, will have a repair fee quoted to the customer for approval before any work is performed. If the customer chooses not to perform the repair, a shipping fee will be charged to the customer for return shipping.

As each piece of jewellery is made-to-order and crafted specifically for you, slight variations are to be expected and are not viewed as a defect.

Repair or service performed by a jeweller other than Calico will void the warranty. Our manufacturing warranty excludes coverage for wear and tear, loss of gemstones, product loss, or theft. Coverage also excludes damage or loss caused by a failure to obtain the repairs required to preserve the integrity of the jewellery.
Some examples of common jewellery issues that would not be considered manufacturing defects include:

• Exposure to unreasonable force or harmful conditions.
• Improper storage and mishandling. Abused, altered, or incorrectly cleaned rings, etc.
• The discolouration of precious metals caused by chemicals, make-up, immersion in pools and hot tubs, or bathing, etc.
• Prongs catching, wearing out, or bending over time due to everyday wear or normal damage, allowing a gemstone to fall out.
• Stones set in jewellery may become loose over time due to everyday wear and tear. Regular maintenance, such as prong tightening, and cleanings are required.
• The loss of a gemstone(s) caused by damage from everyday wear or from other damage.
• Rings that have been resized may have visible marks where the resizing was done. This is a common and expected outcome of the resizing process.

The Calico Lifetime Warranty Against Manufacturing Defects is available only to the original purchaser, as this warranty is non-transferable. To benefit from the warranty and the services it provides, Calico requires:
(i) A proof of purchase.
(ii) That all services on your jewellery have been initiated through Calico Jewellers. Maintenance, repair, upgrading, sizing, or other services performed by an individual or company other than Calico, after your purchase, will void the Warranty.
(iii) The issue present must be due to a manufacturing defect and not from the result of wear and tear, or the mishandling of the jewellery piece.

*The assessment and confirmation of the manufacturing defect is at the discretion of Calico Jewellers Manufacturing Ltd. If a return does not meet the criteria of returnable items, a flat rate will be charged for insured overnight return shipping.

INFORMATION ON OUR SITE

Calico is committed to providing accurate and current information across all communication channels, including our website, email, social media, and telephone. While we strive for accuracy, we cannot guarantee that all information is correct, accurate, or complete. Any information communicated is not considered a binding contract and should not be treated as such. The material on this site is provided for general information only and should not be relied upon or used as the sole basis for making decisions without consulting other, primary, more accurate, more complete, or more timely sources of information. Any reliance on the material on this site is at your own discretion.

Calico makes reasonable efforts to display the products listed for sale on the Website as accurately as possible. However, descriptions of products may be inaccurately displayed on the Website due to system, typographical or other errors. Products displayed on our website may appear larger or smaller than their actual size due to variations in computer monitor settings. Additionally, colour and size may slightly differ when viewing product photography. On the Website, we provide the measurement of our products based on our manufacturing specifications, but there may be slight variations in the measurement of the actual product based on the manufacturing process.
In compliance with industry standards and FTC regulations, carat total weight may vary up to 0.05 carats from the stated weight. For diamond jewellery featuring multiple diamonds, we provide the minimum total carat weight for the piece. Colour and clarity grades are expressed as either a minimum or an average based on the number of diamonds. All representations, including gemstone origin, recycled content of precious metals, and estate information, are provided to the best of our knowledge and without any guarantee or warranty.

Calico retains full unrestricted rights to all jewellery designs, custom or standard, and may choose to market or sell jewellery based on these designs.

Occasionally, there may be typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions in the information on our site or in our services, such as product descriptions, pricing, promotions, shipping charges, transit times, and availability. We reserve the right to correct such errors, inaccuracies, or omissions, and to change or update information or cancel orders, if necessary, without prior notice. We are not obligated to update or clarify information in our services unless required by law. The absence of a specified update or refresh date should not be interpreted as an indication that all information has been modified or updated. We reserve the right to modify the contents of this site at any time, but we have no obligation to update any information on our site. You agree that it is your responsibility to monitor changes to our site.

PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

Certain products or Services may be available exclusively online through the website. These products or Services may have limited quantities and are subject to our Return & Refund Policy.

We reserve the right, but are not obligated, to limit the sales of our products or Services to any person, geographic region or jurisdiction. We may exercise this right on a case-by-case basis. We reserve the right to limit the quantities of any products or Services that we offer. All descriptions of products or product pricing are subject to change at anytime without notice, at the sole discretion of us. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time. Any offer for any product or Service made on this site is void where prohibited. We do not warrant that the quality of any products, Services, information, or other material purchased or obtained by you will meet your expectations, or that any errors in the Service will be corrected.

MODIFICATIONS TO THE SERVICE AND PRICES

Prices for our products are subject to change without notice. We reserve the right at any time to modify or discontinue any product or services (or any part or content thereof) without notice at any time. We shall not be liable to you or to any third-party for any modification, price change, suspension, or discontinuance of the products and services.

PRODUCT AVAILABILITY

On occasion, you may be able to place a product in your shopping cart and submit your order for processing, but your order is subsequently cancelled due to unavailability of product. You acknowledge that products may sell quickly and there may be a short period of time after an order has been submitted, but where the product is no longer available. You agree that we may cancel your order after you have received an Order Confirmation without penalty.
On very rare occasions, you may receive a Shipping Confirmation from us, but the product is no longer available in our or our third party fulfillment provider's inventory. You agree that we may rescind our acceptance and cancel your order without penalty if we are unable to ship the product you ordered due to unavailability.

If you're interested in a piece of jewelry that is currently on back order, email us and we can tell you when the item will be back in stock. Sometimes with the volume of orders we receive, an item may go out of stock before we are able to post a notification on the Site. If this happens, we will contact you directly to discuss possible options.

PRODUCT PRICING

In rare circumstances, data, including prices, may be inaccurately displayed on our Site due to system or typographical errors. While we make every attempt to avoid these errors, they may occur. Inadvertent errors or inaccurate advertised prices are not binding on Calico and may be adjusted by Calico at any time. Calico reserves the right to correct any and all errors when they do occur. If an order is placed with a lower product's listed price than the actual price, Calico will, at its discretion, either advise the customer before shipping the product or cancel the order and notify the customer of such cancellation. Our prices are also subject to change without notice. Calico apologizes for any inconvenience that this may cause. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact one of our diamond and jewelry experts at hello@Calico.com.

As Calico has no control over these fees and charges, customers are advised to consult their local customs authority for further information. Additionally, customers should be aware that customs clearance procedures may cause delays beyond Calico's original shipping estimates due to varying customs policies from country to country.

These restrictions may include orders placed by or under the same customer account, the same credit card, and/or orders that use the same billing and/or shipping address. Should we modify or annul an order, we will endeavor to notify you via the email address, billing address, or phone number provided during the order placement.
