      RESIZING, REPAIRS & WARRANTY
      RING SIZING

      At Jean Yves we want your ring to be the perfect fit. Please get sized by a local, reputable jeweller and send us your size over email. Jean Yves is not responsible for incorrect sizing by third parties. At your own expenses we can also send you a small multisizer to take your own measurements.

      For those wanting to surprise a loved one, we can almost accurately estimate the ring size with a few clear photos of the recipient’s hands and their height measurement. In these instances, if the ring size needs a slight adjustment the first resize is complimentary, within 6 months of the purchase date. 

      Please note: the customer is responsible for the return shipping of the order.
