Refunds

Please choose carefully as we do not offer a refund simply because you have changed your mind.
We believe that we accurately describe the products in our online store and that the photos of our individual pieces of jewellery display the colour with a reasonable degree of accuracy. However, the colour that you see on your computer screen depends on a number of factors including the colour quality of the computer screen that you are using. Also, our stones and pearls may reflect different colours depending on the light.

As we use natural stones and pearls in our jewellery you need to be aware that there may be some colour variations within the stones and pearls and that some will have natural inclusion. Any inclusions are not flaws and in many cases these are evidence that the stones / pearls are not man-made. We believe that inclusions enhance the natural beauty of our products. Diamonds off course are an exception to this.
You should also be aware that our jewellery is hand made and therefore you should expect variations that are inherent in jewellery that is not mass-produced. Again, we believe that such variations enhance the natural beauty of our jewellery. Please note that the piece of jewellery shown in the photograph may not be the exact piece that you receive, however, the dimensions and quality of the piece will be similar. As our jewellery is handmade there will be individual variations within similar pieces, which in turn make every piece unique.

When you receive your purchase and you believe that it is significantly different to that described in our online store or that it is faulty, we ask that you advise us within 5 days of having received your purchase. info@jewelbeetle.co.nz

Product quality

Your satisfaction is important to us, and we endeavour to produce the best jewellery we can, of the best quality materials and workmanship.
In the unlikely event of a product being faulty please contact us within 5 days of having received your purchase info@jewelbeetle.co.nz
On return of the jewellery with our receipted invoice enclosed, we will repair or replace it, and reimburse your postal charges. You will not be charged postage a second time for the replacement jewellery.

If you are returning faulty goods, please note that the risk in transit is yours until we receive the goods. Please make sure you send any returns insured and "signature required", or we will not be held responsible for any loss incurred.
