Cancellations, Returns & Exchanges

All ARCELF jewelry is made to order and individually crafted by artisans specifically for each order.

For this reason, we are unable to accept cancellations after an order has been confirmed, or returns and exchanges due to customer preference.

Before placing your order, please carefully review the size, materials, specifications, and estimated production time shown on each product page.

The following are not considered grounds for return or exchange due to product defect:

  • Differences between the product and the customer’s personal expectations or impression
  • Differences in color between the product shown on screen and the actual piece due to monitor or display settings
  • Incorrect size selection
  • Individual variations in color, pattern, shape, texture, or finish resulting from natural materials or hand craftsmanship, including lacquer, textiles, and natural stones
  • Inclusions or natural variations in color found in natural stones
  • Scratches, wear, discoloration, or changes in luster and texture resulting from use
  • Other changes resulting from the inherent characteristics of the materials or natural aging

For eligible ring designs, resizing services may be available after purchase. Please refer to Customer Service for details.

Defective or Incorrect Items

If your item arrives damaged or defective, or if you receive an item that differs from your order, please contact us at info@arcelf.com within 7 days of delivery.

After reviewing the condition of the item, we will provide an appropriate solution, such as repair or replacement. ARCELF will cover the shipping costs required for this service.

If repair or replacement is not possible, we will offer a return and refund.

For one-of-a-kind pieces, we will first assess whether repair is possible. If the item cannot be repaired, we will offer a return and refund.
