Christmas 2022 Update
Pieces are taking longer to make and are in shorter supply than ever, we advise all clients to order very early this year.

We have extended our returns period for the Christmas shopping period. Our standard 15 day return policy is always in place but you can also now avail of returns / exchanges for pieces purchased from 1st November 2022 until the end of January 2023.
A common question we receive is are earrings eligible for return, the simple answer is yes!
Limited categories of pieces do not qualify for an automatic refund or exchange. This does not affect your consumer rights.
These categories and pieces include:
Customised or personalised pieces. This includes pieces which have been re-sized or engraved
Items made to order in a particular specification or size. E.g. The size, the gemstones, metal is different to what is listed online
