You have the right to withdraw from the contract within 14 calendar days of receipt, without giving any reason. To exercise this right, send us a clear statement (by email or letter). You may optionally use the Model Withdrawal Form.
- Returns & costs: You must return the products without undue delay and within 14 days of notifying us of your withdrawal. Return shipping costs are borne by the customer, unless otherwise stated.
- Exceptions: The right of withdrawal does not apply to made-to-order or personalised products, nor to products sealed for health or hygiene reasons that have been unsealed after delivery (e.g. earrings without a hygiene seal).
- Refund: Within 14 days of receiving your withdrawal notice, using the same means of payment. We may withhold the refund until we have received the goods back or you have supplied proof of return shipment. Standard outbound shipping costs are also refunded (excluding any supplementary express delivery charges).
- Diminished value: You are liable only for any diminished value of the goods resulting from handling beyond what is necessary to establish their nature, characteristics and functioning.
9. Returns & Exchanges Policy
Beyond the statutory 14-day withdrawal right (Section 8), we offer an extended return period of 30 calendar days from receipt, provided the products are unused and the security seal is intact. Instructions and the current return address are listed on the "Returns" page. Returned products remain the customer's responsibility until they are delivered to us.

All products are covered by the legal guarantee for lack of conformity. Depending on the circumstances, the consumer is entitled to repair or replacement, or — where applicable — a price reduction or termination of the contract, in accordance with the law.

If a product is received defective or incorrect, please notify us immediately for a free replacement or refund, in accordance with your statutory rights.
