Instructions for returning goods

• If you wish to make a return, send us an e-mail containing your name, address, e-mail address and the name of the order (work title).

• Ship the items for return within seven (7) days after you have received the package (post confirmation).

• You are responsible for any damage caused to the item during the return shipment. We therefore strongly recommend that you send the products well packaged, in good condition and in their original box and/or packaging.

• You have to send the item via registered mail to the address we will provide you after receiving your e-mail. Please, provide us with a tracking number for the return shipment. If you fail to do that and the item is lost on your responsibility, we will not refund your purchase. We cannot guarantee that you will receive any compensation for items returned to us via normal (non registered mail). Registered mail has a track number. Note the track number of your parcel sent to us and mail it to us to follow shipment.

• If a returned item is shipped outside the EU, mark it as "RETURNED SAMPLES“ to avoid Customs fees. We are not responsible for any charges or fees imposed by the Customs on packages returned to us. We do not hold packages returned to us and stopped at the Customs and we do not refund purchases that have not reached us due to mistakes or omissions which failed to return the package customs-free. The customer is obliged to pay the customs fee in order for us to have the package returned and refund the purchase.

• Unless otherwise agreed upon, the refund will be processed through the same payment method you used to make your original purchase. • If the product or packaging (the jewellery box) is used or damaged, we reserve the right to deduct any depreciation in value when refunding the product. We also reserve the right not to accept a damaged object. The shipping cost of a damaged object that has been returned to us and not accepted by us due to damages is paid by the customer to whom we return it per registered mail.
