Personalised Keepsakes (i.e. Fine silver jewellery moulds)

Please return your impressions/prints as soon as possible, so we can fulfil your order, manage our stock and workload, failure to return prints within 4 months from ordering may result in your order being cancelled and refunded less the cost of the impression kit or putty, fees and postage; if you still want your item then you will need to purchase again. Some personalised orders that are cancelled after they have been ordered will be liable for a cancellation charge, this is to cover any expenditure incurred by us in preparation of your order, and this will also include any postage charges, any necessary components already sent out & any other admin expenses incurred due to cancellation of your order.  As bespoke items are produced especially for you, you will be unable to cancel the order once it has been started, we will only replace if a mistake has been made on our part, so please ensure all details you give us are correct, there will be some variations in positioning of photos and text as each product is handmade and different fonts will alter the overall finished appearance, this should be allowed for with bespoke items. Refunds are not normally due on any specially produced, bespoke personalised items, unless there is an error on our part; we may then choose to replace your item rather than refund if your item is faulty, please note when cancelling any bespoke item after work has begun may be subject to a cancellation fee. All of our products are handcrafted and not machine made. The nature of handmade items means that no piece will be without any minor imperfections or faint scratches, no two pieces will ever be exactly the same. Products and product designs can be updated at any time, please read the product descriptions carefully. Please note that you are responsible for the quality of any photos you send us to engrave, if you send us a poor quality photo then this may mean that the quality of the finished engraved image is not of the best quality too, we will try and notify you beforehand if possible but if we think the image may be suitable then we may go ahead and print, you cannot predict the exact final quality until the image is printed, once printed we cannot change the image, so please ensure that you send good quality prints.

We mainly use a next day delivery courier for most of our items, ensuring a fast and reliable service. If you wish to cancel your order after it has been dispatched, you will be charged for the delivery and any fees incurred. We cannot guarantee delivery times due to circumstances beyond our control, like vehicle break-downs and during very busy times like bank holidays and Christmas, with all courier items, you will be emailed a tracking number when the item is dispatched, please ensure that you check your spam box if you do not receive this. Our couriers make every effort to deliver your items, if you are left a calling card then please ensure that you act on it to re-arrange the delivery at a suitable time, if after all attempts by them to contact you and to deliver the kit have been exhausted and should you have still not contacted the courier to re-arrange a convenient time/place for the delivery, then the parcel will end up being returned to us, which will incur extra charges, (please note that the courier return charge is currently approx. twice the price of the original delivery charge, it is a fairly hefty charge). We will only be able to re-send your orders after all of these charges have been paid and you have paid a new postage charge.

Fine Silver Jewellery Care

Our fine silver jewellery has a 99.9% silver content, fine silver is a soft metal, therefore care should be taken not to knock it against any hard surfaces, or rub, scratch it, as this may cause your jewellery to lose some of its detail, this is to be expected and is classed as normal wear and tear. Silver naturally tarnishes over time and your charm will need polishing, do this with a special silver polishing cloth to restore shine, but be careful not to rub the hand print, footprint or fingerprint in any personalised jewellery, otherwise you could make it fade. To keep your fine silver jewellery at its best: keep away from any humid environment; remove your jewellery before swimming, bathing, showering, using cleaning materials or applying hygiene or beauty products; try keeping a piece of silver foil in your jewellery box as this may help to lessen tarnishing of your jewellery; remove your jewellery at night; your jewellery should be treated as a special piece of jewellery, it is a precious memory piece and should be treated carefully.
