 3. HOW THE CONTRACT IS FORMED BETWEEN YOU AND US 

3.1 After placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order.  Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted.  Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy a product.  All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail that confirms that the Product has been dispatched (the dispatch confirmation).  The contract between us (the contract) will only be formed when we send you the dispatch confirmation.

3.2 The Contract will relate only to those jewellery whose dispatch we have confirmed in the Dispatch Confirmation.  We will not be obliged to supply any other jewellery, which may have been part of your order until the dispatch of such jewellery has been confirmed in a separate dispatch confirmation.

3.3 In the event that prior to the Dispatch Confirmation, we find that we are unable to satisfy your order for any reason, we will attempt to make contact with you in order to offer you any available alternatives or a full refund.

3.4 We do try to make sure that all information on the site is correct all the time but sometimes mistakes are made.  In the event of obvious error, please see clause 9 below but note for now that we reserve the right to cancel your order even after sending you the dispatch confirmation, right up to the point at which you accept delivery.

3.5 Where we have the jewellery in stock, we will take payment from you and dispatch immediately.  However, when an order is placed for jewellery we do not currently have available, we will contact you with the estimated delivery date. Upon agreement, full payment is taken and once the product is ready, you will receive a dispatch notification. The estimated delivery is between four to five weeks but we will always endeavour to dispatch earlier.

3.6 Jewellery displayed on the site is shown in full colour, but computer monitors and screens vary so we cannot guarantee that the colour you see on screen will exactly match the colour of the item you desire.

 4. AVAILABILITY AND DELIVERY

4.1 Your order will be fulfilled by the delivery date set out in the Dispatch Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then within a reasonable time of the date of the dispatch confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances.  For more information, please see our Delivery & Returns Policy.

4.2 Defective jewellery will be sent for repair within 14 days of purchase but only where we are satisfied, on inspection, that the product in question is faulty and that the fault has not arisen out of normal wear and tear or customer misuse.  Damaged jewellery will not be accepted as returns under any circumstances. If a repair is not possible then an exchange may be offered.

4.3 We will only refund shipping costs if applicable where the cause of the return is our fault, e.g. the product is defective or is not what you ordered.  In all other cases, we will only refund the purchase price.  Please refer to our refund policy.

 5. RISK AND TITLE

 5.1 The jewellery will be at your risk from the precise time you sign for delivery or someone else does this on your behalf.

5.2 Ownership of the jewellery will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the jewellery, including delivery charges, or at the precise time you sign for delivery (or someone else does this on your behalf), whichever is the latter.
