PRODUCT CARE & SERVICES

Jewelry pieces with delicate designs require special care and appropriate storage. Be sure to remove and safely store your jewelry before doing work that might cause damage to the surface or shape of your piece.

For details on how to take care of your Capucinne piece, please review our Product Care Guide.

All of our pieces are made with recycled precious metals. Recycling precious metals in the jewelry industry is more than just a trend: it is a common practice and the most environmentally friendly way in order to create fine jewelry.

With the use of recycled precious metals in our production process, we’re taking small steps that will hopefully lead to the end of unfair and inhumane mining practices.

Giving back to the community is one of our core beliefs and something that we value as a company. As part of this commitment, every year we donate 5% of our annual profit to various organizations that are creating a positive change in the world.

Our main goal for giving back is to help build a brighter future for all of us—whether that goal is achieved with the help of organizations that empower others or organizations that preserve our environment.

Rest assured, you are making a positive impact with every Capucinne purchase.

Capucinne’s timeless treasures are ethically sourced and handcrafted by skilled artisans in our studio in Ljubljana, Slovenia.

CUSTOM ORDERS

The C in Capucinne also stands for custom! The core of our business is custom-made engagement rings, and we are more than happy to work with you to create a completely original ring or personalize an existing piece to fit your style. Please contact us at custom@capucinne.com for all inquiries regarding custom work.

First, we recommend you send as many references, sketches, or ideas of what you had in mind for your custom piece. After that, we will work closely with you to determine the details of your ring, such as the stones, material, ring size, and design.

We will then make a 3D preview for you to get an idea of what your ring will look like. 3D previews are for serious buyers only. The first preview is free of charge, the second one is $100 USD, and any additional ones are $50 USD. This amount is later on deducted from the purchase price of the finalized order.

Once you confirm the designs and purchase the listing for the ring, we then start sourcing the stones for you. If you need to specifically choose a stone, you will be sent a selection to choose from. When the design and gemstone are confirmed, the ring is put in production.

A mold is made and the ring is cast.

The stone of your choice is polished and set.

Once the ring is finished, it gets the final stamp of approval from our lead designer and founder.

After passing our quality assessment, the ring is ready to be shipped and delivered to you.

To maintain the high standard we set for ourselves, we put all our energy and focus into every detail when making your ring. This process takes approximately 6-8 weeks.

If at any point of the process you need updates about your order, please feel free to contact us at orders@capucinne.com with your order number.

Yes. We are more than happy to make a preview of your custom design. Please note that there is an extra cost for previews of custom pieces.

To avoid additional 3D previews. please be as specific as possible with your request. The amount paid for the 3D previews is later deducted from your final purchase order.

For most of our rings, you can choose the color of the stone. For instance, if you are looking for a sapphire stone and would like to have it in peachy pink, we can accommodate you. However, please note that you should first make an order or pay a deposit so we can source the stones for you to choose from. The deposit amount depends on the stone—for example, sapphires over 1ct, require a deposit amount of $450 USD. The deposit amount is later deducted from the final purchase value. Please contact us at custom@capucinne.com to get started.

Yes! Please contact us at custom@capucinne.com with your request and we will send you options to choose from. If we do not have the stone you want for your ring, we are more than happy to source one for you. This requires a deposit.

Several factors come into play when determining the price of your ring. The main factors that affect the price are the main and side stones.

We offer a variety of gemstones in all kinds of cuts, but many of these have to be custom cut, which will add to the price of the ring. If you would like your gemstone kite-cut, for instance, the process may be significantly more challenging as not every gemstone can be easily cut in this shape. Most of the time, gemstones come oval-shaped and then are custom cut out of this shape, leaving a lot of carats unused. This also plays part in determining the price of the stone, which contributes to the price of the ring.

Of course, the use of specific side stones also plays a key role, as well as the material chosen for the setting. We offer 14/18k yellow/rose/white gold, platinum, and palladium.

Both alexandrites are lab-created. The only difference is that Chatham is a family-owned laboratory that specializes in growing alexandrite. If you place an order for a ring with lab alexandrite or Chatham alexandrite, you will receive high-quality lab alexandrite either way.
