All our jewellery is MADE TO ORDER unless described as READY TO SHIP. Our regular making time is 2-3 weeks for sterling silver jewellery. For gold and diamond jewellery making time is estimated 3-8 weeks depending on the design and the gemstones required to fulfil the order.

 

If your order is URGENT, please get in touch as whenever possible, we will try to work within your timeframe.

Bespoke jewellery and remodels usually take between 4-8 weeks once a design is agreed upon, quote is approved and the deposit is made. In some cases, if gemstones are sourced from overseas suppliers, it might take a few weeks extra for shipping and customs clearance. A time frame will be arranged with you prior going ahead and Julia will always keep you in the loop.

Rings on this website in the READY to SHIP section can be downsized at no extra cost ONCE before shipping and within the first two weeks of purchase. Upsizing always carries an extra cost. Please get in touch if you need any adjustments after purchasing. Sizing after the first free sizing or two weeks from purchase will incur the regular sizing fees plus shipping costs.

To find out your size,  we advise that you please check with Julia or at your local jeweller to get a professional assessment. Please do not use home methods as they are usually not accurate, specially the paper strip or the string around your finger.  If the ring is meant as a gift and you don't know the size, get in touch and we will help you out.

Bespoke pieces and remodels are always one of kind, the  designs are developed for you and together with you. It is important that you have a budget in mind prior your consultation as this helps me define your options.

If you have an idea in mind but you are unsure of how much it would cost, please get in touch to get a price estimation and once a project is defined, a quote to take it through the next steps.

If collecting directly from Julia in Piha-Auckland or from an agreed-upon nearby area is not an option, you can get your items shipped to any national or international destination. However, Julia advises and encourages you to pick up and collect all items purchased on this website directly from our studio in Piha given that NZ Post considers 'jewellery' a 'high risk item' therefore we cannot take responsibility for damages or items getting lost during transportation if you chose to get your items shipped instead of collecting directly from Julia.  

 

Ready-to-ship items in our store will be shipped right away or the following business day if your order comes through outside business hours.

 

For Made-to-Order/Custom/ Bespoke and Remodels, when the new work is completed, Julia will be in touch to arrange the collection of the pieces. Alternatively, it can all be couriered anywhere in NZ free of charge if your order is above $1000 NZD or with a flat fee of $20 NZD. International orders are shipped with DHL from $180NZD + Insurance (optional).

As a maker, selling my work is part of supporting my art, therefore the majority of profit (if any!) made from sales is reinvested in tools and materials in order to create more pieces and keep doing what I love. I don't consider myself a business owner because this is my craft, not a business as you would imagine with a store and employees. One day hopefully I'll get to have my own little gallery, a girl can dream! But for now, I craft my work from a cosy room in our house that I have turned into my workshop/home studio, nestled in the Waitakere Ranges. ❤︎  

As a designer, maker and the single person behind this 'operation', I take care that each piece is made with dedication and care and each order leaves my workshop in excellent fresh-of-the-bench condition. However, if once you receive your items you notice something is off, please get in touch immediately! I DO NOT offer REFUNDS under any circumstances, but if for any reason you need an exchange, whenever possible I will be happy to take the item back and issue a credit note or exchange it for something else of the same value that is already in stock.

 

Items that were worn will not be accepted. Custom, bespoke and remodels are non-returnable. Only items in their original NEW condition without showing any signs of wear, with intact original packaging and within 10 days from purchase will be considered. Julia reserves the right to reject an exchange request if we consider that the items do not present the conditions to be taken back.

Manufacture is guaranteed in accordance with the CGA, limited to reasonable and responsible care. This does not cover resizing, tarnishing, wear and tear including but not limited to scratches, knicks and dings, chips or cracks on gemstones/pearls, bent or snapped claws, any and all general damages caused while wearing your jewellery. Goods are non-returnable.

 

Care instructions are supplied with your new items, please read them carefully before wearing your new jewellery.

 

For bespoke and remodels, complimentary size adjustment is offered within the first 4 weeks from the items being received by the client; only personal delivery to and from Julia's studio in Piha is accepted, no postage of gold/platinum pieces. For our Sterling Silver collections, ring downsizing is complimentary for up to 2 weeks from purchase, postage is not included. Upsizing always carries a fee.

Jewellery items are delicate and should be handled with care. Avoid wearing your jewellery when performing activities that could damage it. Avoid dropping or knocking to prevent scratches and breakages. Remove your jewellery when sleeping, showering, in the sea and in hot water pools, when swimming in nature and in thermal baths. Chemicals in spa pools are harmful.

 

When applying perfume, make up, hairspray or creams, remember to do so BEFORE putting on any jewellery, the chemicals in these products can damage your jewellery.

 

Tarnishing naturally occurs. All metal when in contact with oxygen reacts and oxidizes. The contact with oils, salts and chemicals can speed up this process. Believe it or not, wearing your jewellery minimizes tarnishing as the constant touch of its surface would prevent oxidation.

 

Before storage, give your jewellery a gentle wash. Use warm water, a phosphate-free detergent (or baking soda) and a soft brush to remove any impurities, dry it with a soft cotton cloth and put it away in a small snap-lock plastic bag with as much air squeezed out as you can and out of the light.

 

Regularly polishing your jewellery will help keeping it always stunning. Julia advices to get all gems/pearls professionally checked, at least once a year.
