FAQ
"Is your jewelry resistant to tarnishing?"
"Our jewelry is designed to be tarnish-free. However, it's important to avoid exposing it to saltwater, perfumes, and chemicals. Additionally, some components may be recycled, reused, or vintage, so please handle them with care."
"Can you confirm if the product is genuinely handmade, or is it merely a claim of sustainability without substantial proof?"
We do not engage in large-scale, factory-style production. Our pieces are created in small batches, ensuring individual attention to detail. We are always happy to share insights into our production process and introduce you to the artisans behind our creations. This transparency is a testament to our commitment to handmade craftsmanship.
"Could you provide details about the guarantee?"
"All items undergo thorough inspection before being dispatched, ensuring top-notch quality. Additionally, we offer repair services to address any potential issues."
Why do your products command a higher price compared to similar alternatives?
Our products prioritize quality and sustainable materials, occasionally resulting in higher pricing compared to similar looking items. Factors include customization options, small batch production, fair wages for artisans, and investment in unique features. And good to know: Relative to our established standards, the price is considered affordable.
Why don't you offer free returns?
Most of our products are crafted after we receive your order. Individually made items often require a significant amount of time and labor to produce. Offering free return shipping can be costly for businesses, especially for smaller ones. And most important kindly keep in mind the environmental impact as you make your decision.
Is it possible to create a necklace in a specific size?
Please specify your desired size in the notes during the checkout process. As our products are handmade, sizing may vary. If there is any price difference associated with your requested size, we will promptly inform you. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your understanding of the unique nature of handmade items.
