Our Service Pledge

Like many jewellery makers, I design necklaces I would love to wear myself. So much so, it is always hard to part with one of my pieces. When I make a necklace, I will not go ahead with it's completion until I am completely satisfied as to how it lies, how special and flattering it looks and how balanced all the details are. If it takes many attempts, I will carry on until I have that lovely "yes" feeling inside. I try to always find the best quality and colour I can, within reason and price. And I want to make you feel absolutely delighted with your purchase. Each necklace is a one-off design, so no one will have what you have. And I am pleased to say, I have always had delighted feedback and repeat buyers. Nothing is hidden. Every detail is explained, and if I have not included something you want to know, please don't hesitate to get in touch. I give a year's guarantee with every necklace, so that if threads should break, I will re-make the necklace for free, other than the postage costs. I use very special Japanese threads, expensive for me to buy, but very strong and reliable. However if a breakage occurs, as in you drop the necklace, I will have to charge you for the re-making and supply of materials. But this does not happen often. My aim is for you to be thrilled, charmed and complemented by my necklace.

Shipping, Handling, Insurance Policy

I take great care to ensure your necklace will arrive safely. I pack it in as many layers of bubble wrap as it takes to make the necklace well cushioned, and then it goes in tissue paper and a strong cardboard well sealed box. Although it comes with a handmade silk brocade pouch, this will be on top of the wrapped necklace. Because I am located in the UK, most of my shipping will be abroad. I will be using DHL, a reliable shipper, if the item is over £250. I will post your necklace within 2 days, once your Paypal payment has been confirmed and the address verified. If breakage should occur, despite my thorough packaging, please do not attempt to return the item. This must be handled through the shipping agent with an insurance claim. Always retain the original packaging so the agent can examine it. But I will assist in whatever way I can as I always take the safety of the package very seriously and indeed, have never yet had a breakage. If the item is under £250, I will use Royal Mail which takes 7-12 working days to arrive, but the costs are half what the DHL charges are. Please note: Any customs costs or local taxes are the responsibility of the buyer.
