During our 35+ years of jewelry repair experience, we've only seen a dozen or so rings that have been cut off in hospital emergency rooms,
and in most of those cases the rings had been bent out-of-round and were
putting painful pressure on the finger. Tungsten rings will not crush
or bend out-of-round, so if you shut your hand in a car door or drop a
heavy object on it, a tungsten wedding band is likely to fracture into
several pieces and fall off your finger freely. You might be safer
wearing a tungsten ring than a precious metal band! Nonetheless, check
with your local jeweler or medical facility if you have concerns.
Sizing and Engraving
Because of the extreme hardness and durability of tungsten, tungsten wedding bands cannot be sized like gold, silver or platinum rings, so
please take extra care in determining the proper size. Also, engraving a
tungsten wedding band is possible but it is very faint and difficult to
read. Because of this, we have chosen not to offer engraving on
Tungsten rings.
*Warranty
Moissanite Bridal offers the best tungsten ring warranty available! Our tungsten carbide rings are engineered to be maintenance free, and we
provide a lifetime warranty on the sizing, polish, textures, and
against breakage. Under normal usage, there will be little or no wear on
both the polish and the textures of the tungsten carbide. Precious
metal inlay material is excluded and is designed to exhibit a
contrasting textured appearance after normal wear.
Our tungsten ring warranty includes lifetime ring size exchanges (tungsten carbide wedding bands cannot be resized conventionally due to
their extreme hardness) plus we warrantee the polish and texture of our
tungsten carbide wedding bands for life. If a Moissanite Bridal tungsten
carbide wedding band ever needs to be re-polished, refinished,
exchanged for sizing, or replaced due to fracture or breakage, all that
is required is to return the ring with a copy of the original receipt,
plus $35 for handling and return shipping. For diamond tungsten bands,
the fee is $65. For inlaid tungsten bands, there is a small deductible
depending on your inlaid metal: Sterling silver inlays require a
deductible of $75 per ring. 14K and 18K gold inlays run $85 per ring,
and platinum inlays are $135 per ring.
Please Note: Tungsten carbide rings are not indestructible. Therefore, Moissanite Bridal will void the warranty if a ring is altered
in any way, including engraving, sizing, drilling, stone setting,
polishing, boiling, cleaning with harsh chemicals, soldering, burning or
showing evidence of obvious repeated physical abuse, such as striking
with a hammer.
