MY MIRRORING FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Getting Started
What is My Mirroring?
My Mirroring creates custom replica engagement rings and jewelry inspired by your original piece. Our Mirrorings are designed for travel, work, vacations, honeymoons, and everyday peace of mind, allowing you to protect the ring that matters most. Each piece is custom made one-of-one, from CAD design through final setting.
Why do people order a Mirroring?
Many clients choose a Mirroring when traveling, going to the beach or pool, working out, commuting, or simply wanting extra peace of mind. A Mirroring allows you to enjoy the look of your ring while keeping the original safe.
Do I need to send my original ring?
No. We never require your original jewelry. Your Mirroring is created entirely from photos, measurements if available, and the information you provide.
What does the price include?
Every order includes a custom CAD rendering, CAD revisions until approval, full fabrication of your ring, stone setting, and quality inspection before shipping. Once the CAD is approved, production begins.
What photos should I submit?
For the most accurate Mirroring, we recommend a top view, side profile, gallery or basket view, wedding band photos if applicable, and any appraisal, CAD, or specification documents available. The more details you provide, the more accurately we can mirror your ring.
Materials & Options
What materials do you offer?
We offer Cubic Zirconia, Moissanite, Colored Moissanite, Lab-grown Diamonds as an upgrade, and lab or natural gemstones. All rings are crafted in 925 Sterling Silver with optional white, yellow, or rose gold plating using REACH-compliant, nickel-free standards.
Do you offer ring and band sets?
Yes. We can mirror both your engagement ring and wedding band as a matching set.
Can you create colored stone rings?
Yes. We can recreate rings featuring sapphires, emeralds, rubies, morganite, and many other gemstones.
What does 3-micron gold plating mean?
All gold-plated pieces use 925 Sterling Silver as the base metal and are finished with 3 microns of white, yellow, or rose gold plating. 3 microns is considered thick plating for travel jewelry and offers enhanced durability when properly cared for. Like all plating, it will naturally wear over time depending on use and care.
Design & CAD Process
What is a CAD rendering?
A CAD is a computer-generated 3D design showing the exact structure, proportions, and measurements of your ring before production begins.
Can I make changes to the design?
Yes. During the CAD stage, you may request revisions until you are happy with the design. Once the CAD is approved, production begins and changes can no longer be made.
How many CAD revisions are included?
We include reasonable revisions needed to accurately mirror your ring. Most projects are approved within a few revision rounds.
Can I approve my ring before production?
Yes. Production never begins until you approve the CAD.
Production & Shipping
How long does the process take?
CAD creation and revisions vary by project. After CAD approval, production typically takes 2–4 weeks. Some designs may require additional time due to stone sourcing, complexity, or hand-finishing requirements.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. We ship worldwide.
Will I receive tracking information?
Yes. Tracking information is provided once your order ships.
Expectations & Quality
Will my Mirroring be an exact 1:1 copy?
No. Your Mirroring is designed to closely mirror your original ring, but it is not an exact fine-jewelry duplicate. Because we work from photos and use different materials than your original ring, slight differences may occur in weight, stone behavior, metal characteristics, and light reflection.
Is this fine jewelry?
No. My Mirroring pieces are replica travel rings made in sterling silver with simulated, moissanite, or lab-created stones. They are designed to help protect your original ring during travel and daily activities.
Can people tell it is not my original ring?
Our goal is to create a piece that closely mirrors your original ring. The more information and photos you provide, the more accurate the final result will be.
Care & Maintenance
How should I care for my ring?
Remove before swimming, showering, exercising, or sleeping. Avoid perfumes, lotions, sanitizers, and chemicals. Store in a jewelry box or pouch and clean gently with a soft microfiber cloth.
Will gold plating wear off?
Yes. Like all plated jewelry, gold plating will naturally wear over time. Lifespan varies based on wear habits, environment, and skin chemistry.
Policies
Can I return my order?
Because every Mirroring is custom made specifically for you, all sales are final. If there is an issue with your order, please contact us on the day of delivery so we can assist.
Can I cancel my order?
Orders may only be canceled before CAD work has begun. Once design work starts, the order becomes non-refundable.
Can you replicate designer or branded jewelry?
We respect intellectual property laws and do not replicate protected designer or branded jewelry. Our service is intended for personal, unbranded pieces.
