Yes, rhodium is an alloy that is blended with naturally yellow gold to give it a pure white tone. This is the process applied to all white gold jewelry. Over time that rhodium can wear away, revealing a faint, golden tone. For that reason, one of the key maintenance requirements for white gold jewelry is periodic rhodium plating. Diamonds Direct is proud to offer free lifetime rhodium plating on all our jewelry to make sure your jewelry always stays shiny and bright! No appointment needed to have your ring rhodium plated. Just stop by!

Diamonds Direct will gladly resize rings purchased from us free of charge! The turnaround time for ring sizing is dependent on the type of ring you have. In most cases, we can accommodate sizing requests within a few days to about a week. Our shop offers many options to fit your schedule and your sizing needs.

Some of our designers do require us to send rings back to their studio for their artisan craftsman to size. If that is the case for your ring, sizing may take a few weeks. We will gladly coordinate the shipping of the ring to the designer on your behalf free of charge.

Please also note some specialty rings, like eternity bands, tension set diamond rings, and alternative metals, may not accommodate sizing.

In order to get the most accurate sizing recommendations for your specific ring please contact a store near you, use our request an appointment feature, or call us at (800) 885-5050.
