Frequently asked questions

Can I return part or all of my order?

As long as you follow our returns guidelines above, you may return all or part of your order for a refund or exchange. We do not accept returns for individual beads which were sold as a strand or individual items sold in a pack, these must be returned to us unused and as it was sold to you.

What happens if I don't like the stones I receive?

You are welcome to return or exchange the stones if they aren't to your liking. Did you know you can add special requests for gemstones? Whether you're after matching pairs, a particular colour, pattern or shape, just let us know in your shopping basket and our small team will personally spend time trying our very best to select the perfect gemstone for you.

What do I do if an item is missing from my order?

Please check your order as soon as you can when it arrives and let us know of us any discrepancies within 5 days of receipt. Orders are carefully checked by our team before dispatch, so please do take the time to check each bag thoroughly as we do try to keep the number of bags down to a minimum so more than one item may be in each bag. For small orders please check the front of your sales receipt, for really small items we will staple the bags to the front of the sales receipt.

What do I do if my order arrived damaged?

We do try to package all our orders well to protect them during transit, if you do receive an item and it is damaged please contact our team immediately. Please keep the item and all the packaging in case it is requested for a claim. We may ask you to send us a photograph of the damaged item via email which will make the arrangement for a replacement quicker.

An item broke during wire wrapping/setting, can I return them?

Items and gemstones that have been broken by the customer due to unsuccessful wire wrapping or stone setting attempts cannot be returned or exchanged. With wire wrapping, hole sizes vary so try not to force wire through the hole as this will put pressure on delicate gems and cause them to break. Learn more about working with beads with small holes and how to enlarge them with a bead reamer.

Do I have to pay for returns?

If you wish to return an unwanted item it will be at your own cost, unless it is deemed faulty or was damaged in transit. Please make sure the return package is protected during transit as any items damaged due to inadequate packaging cannot be considered for a refund.
