Frequently Asked Questions
Made to order items: It currently takes us about 2 weeks to finish and ship your item from the time that you place your order. If you have ordered a ring sizing kit, your ring will take us about 2 weeks to finish from the time that you update us on your finger size, after having received your sizers.
Due to the Trump administration’s new Section 338 tariffs applied to Canadian goods, our U.S. customers will have to pay a 50% tariff on any items ordered from Casavir Jewelry. Unlike previous tariffs applied by the Trump administration, these new Section 338 tariffs are not able to be bypassed by the U.S.-Canada-Mexico free trade agreement. Tariffs are applied when a package crosses the border. Once your item has been delivered to you, FedEx will then send you a bill for the 50% tariff.

We want to simplify your online ring buying experience and get you wearing a ring that fits properly. That’s why we provide 1 free resize with most of our rings. This includes wood inlaid rings and other rings that cannot be traditionally resized. All that we require is that you send the original, unaltered ring back to us within 60 days of receiving it, and cover the costs of shipping.
If your wood inlaid ring is made in a non-traditional metal, such as titanium or stainless steel, the ring will have to be remade from scratch, but our 1 free resize policy still applies.
Gold rings that are inlaid with wood can usually be traditionally resized once the wood is removed. When resizing wood engagement rings or wood wedding bands that are made in gold, the original piece of wood will be removed and then replaced with a new one.
We are unable to resize rings that state in a product description that they cannot be resized.
Please note: our resize turnaround time is roughly the same as our current turnaround time for ring production, which can be seen at the top of this page.
If you are unsure of your size, please take advantage of our ring sizers, which are offered free with the purchase of any ring.
See our page on ring sizing for info on how to be accurately sized.
Yes! Please use our contact page if you would like to request a custom order or if you have any questions regarding a custom made piece.
Yes. However, there are some materials that cannot be used.
We can use:
- Wood for inlays.
- Loose stones to be broken down and inlaid, including sand and shell.
- Most faceted gemstones.
We cannot use:
- Your precious metals to be melted down and made into a new ring. Most jewelry gold is alloyed, which means that it is made up of a mixture of gold and various other metals. Melting and reusing gold alloys can be problematic, and may cause pitting, brittle metal, discoloration, and cracking in a newly cast piece.
For more info, please see our custom wooden rings page.
Our wooden rings are made with metal cores, which allows you to wear a piece of wood while taking advantage of the strength of metal. The wood is protected with a marine grade resin, and as long as the finish is maintained, this type of ring can last for a very long time.
Yes, our wooden rings are waterproof provided the resin finish is maintained and doesn’t become damaged. If you find that the resin is damaged enough to expose the wood, it may be time to send the ring back for refinishing.
The terms “lab-grown” or “lab-created” refer to gemstones that are man-made instead of mined from the earth. They are real minerals that are chemically and physically identical to their earth-mined counterparts. For example, a lab-grown diamond is a real diamond, but it is made in a lab with equipment that reproduces diamond forming conditions within the earth.
We aren’t accepting visitors at this time. We are a small jewelry studio that doesn’t have a public showroom. Casavir Jewelry is primarily run by Nate, who creates our in-house jewelry and cuts most of our gemstones. Operating this way allows us to adhere to a tight 2 week turnaround time for many of our made-to-order items, freeing up enough time to make jewelry and cut gems.
