EXTENDED SERVICE PLAN
Fine jewelry is made from durable, strong materials by expert craftspeople, but it is not indestructible or maintenance free. Gold and Platinum will dent, scuff, gouge, bend or even crack over time from striking, banging, lifting objects, or even regularly gripping a steering wheel; small stones may loosen, chip, or fall out of their setting from accidental bumpings or due to debris that accumulates beneath stones combined with vibration from wear.
So, why not protect your investment?
Our extended service plans offer five-years of care and maintenance for your custom ring. Jewelry repairs covered under the Plan are described below. Without an extended service plan, cumulatively such repairs are expensive. With a plan, your jewelry remains as beautiful and worry free as the day you purchased it.

Terms & Conditions of Extended Service Plan Agreement:
1-The Extended Service Plan (Plan) is a repair plan under which we (Krikawa) agree to furnish parts and labor necessary to maintain your jewelry in a useable and wearable condition, provided the jewelry is being worn in a normal and usual manner, and not subjected to unreasonable wear. We reserve the right to determine if jewelry is subjected to unreasonable wear, whether it may be satisfactorily repaired or if it should be replaced. Parts may be replaced with others of like kind and quality, in our discretion. We will notify you of fees for services and materials not covered by the Plan.
2-Accent stones covered under the Plan are limited to a maximum size of 3.0 mm (largest measurement). Specialty cut accent stones are not covered under the Plan regardless of size. Inlaid materials such as jade, turquoise, onyx and mother of pearl are not covered under the Plan.
3-The following applies to ring re-sizing: The Plan covers resizing up or down by two finger sizes. Krikawa determines the most appropriate method for resizing. The Plan covers up-sizing Mokume rings by inserting a plain strip of metal only. "Mokume Restoration" sizing, in which a liner bed is cut and mokume is inlaid for near seamless appearance, is not included in the Plan and additional charges apply. Eternity style rings are sized down by adding sizing balls or interrupting the pattern, depending upon style. Eternity style rings are sized up by inserting a plain piece of metal. Additional charges apply for more pattern specific sizing inserts.
4-Jewelry must be sent to Krikawa for inspection annually to remain eligible for Plan services. It is your responsibility to send jewelry for maintenance. No reminders are sent. You may request a FedEx label to send jewelry to Krikawa and agree to pay all shipping charges.
5-All maintenance/repairs shall be completed by Krikawa. The Plan is void if any non-Krikawa jeweler performs any work on jewelry beyond steam cleaning. If a non-Krikawa jeweler discovers loose or missing stones during steam cleaning, then you must return the jewelry to Krikawa for repair. If during in-take Krikawa notices repairs by a non-Krikawa jeweler, then all repairs will be performed at our current labor and materials rates.
6-Valuation Letter will only be provided at the time of service (upon physical inspection of the jewelry) and will be emailed to you.
7-The Plan covers only the specific jewelry for which the Plan was purchased and is not transferrable.
8-Loss or damage resulting from failure to comply with recommended services and/or maintenance is not covered by this Plan. The Plan does not insure against loss, theft, excessive damage, misuse, abuse, or Acts of God. The Plan does not cover damage to or replacement of center stones, specialty cut accent stones, or any stone larger than 3.0 mm in size (largest measurement). THIS PLAN DOES NOT REPLACE CASUALTY INSURANCE COVERAGE. ASK YOUR INSURANCE AGENT FOR DETAILS ON COVERING FOR YOUR JEWELRY.
9-You may cancel within the 15 days after Plan purchase date only if no services have been performed under the Plan. Upon cancellation, you will receive a refund minus the retail value of the cleaning kit and Plan is void. More than 15 days after Plan purchase, no refund upon cancellation.
10-Our total liability under the Plan, for all services, is the purchase price paid for the jewelry as shown on the original invoice, notwithstanding the type of loss or damage, or whether the claim is based on contract, tort or equity. IN NO EVENT SHALL KRIKAWA BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, NO MATTER WHAT THE CAUSE, INCLUDING DELAY IN RENDERING SERVICE OR LOSS OF USE DURING THE PERIOD THAT JEWELRY IS BEING REPAIRED OR AWAITING PARTS. SERVICES AND PARTS PROVIDED UNDER THE PLAN ARE PROVIDED WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
11-Krikawa's entire agreement is governed by the written Plan agreement. No oral representations, promises or conditions not contained in the written Plan agreement shall be valid to modify or limit the Plan agreement. Written modifications are only valid if signed by Krikawa's legal counsel.
