Special Case - Opal jewelry:
We’re working with ethiopian Opals in some of our limited collections. If the Opals come in contact with water they will absorb it like a sponge. Then they lose their fire and characteristic shimmer and/or turn orange/brown or yellow. Some Opals get completely clear and transparent. The fire and the color will come back once the stone is fully dried again. This can take minutes to weeks, depending on your stone and how much water it absorbed. You should be aware of this special characteristic. That’s not a defect or damage.

Exceptions

1. Earrings: Please note that earrings cannot be returned due to hygienic reasons.

2. Customized Productus: Customized products are excluded from the right of withdrawal. 

3. Bath Bombs: Due to hygienic reasons bath bombs and the secret bath bomb necklaces or/and rings cannot be returned and are excluded  from the right of withdrawal.

4. Sale and Flea Market Products: items from our flea market sale are excluded from the right of withdrawal. All products on sale are final and can't be returned.

All customized products and all flea market products are excluded from any discounts. 

Limited Bath Bomb Collections
Some bath bombs can turn in a different color since we're not using any chemical products. Please also remember that our bath bombs are handmade and that they contain a small plastic container in the middle, so it might happen that they crack a bit during transportation. Also due to the fact that bath bomb will be exposed to different temperatures during transportation, the surface of the bath bomb can suffer a bit - since we're not using any chemicals. Our bath bombs serve as packaging for the limited bath bomb jewelry and are therefor not subject to exchange or return. Due to hygienic reasons bath bombs and the secret bath bomb jewelry cannot be returned.

Exchange
Unfortunately as of right now we do not offer exchanges.
If you do not like an article, or for example your ring does not fit, you are allowed (as explained above) to send back the article within 14 days. As soon as the package has arrived at our office and we checked the condition of the article, we will refund your payment.

You can order again the article you wish for in our shop in your size or style of your choice.
