When should I order for Christmas?
Order by Wednesday 16 December for UK delivery before Christmas. Each bracelet is made to order and dispatched within 1 to 2 working days with Royal Mail.
How do I personalise a bracelet?
Type the name, initials, word or number in the personalisation box on the product page before you add it to your basket. Please check the spelling, because we make exactly what you type. Each product page shows how many letters that bracelet can take.
What size should I choose?
Wrap a tape measure or a piece of cord snugly around the wrist, mark where the ends meet, then measure it with a ruler. Choose the closest size from the options on the product page. Some bracelets, such as the Adjustable Rose Quartz Wife Bracelet, are on an adjustable nylon cord. If you are buying a gift and do not know their size, read What to do when you do not know their wrist size.
Can I return a personalised bracelet?
Personalised and custom-made pieces cannot be returned if you change your mind, so please check the spelling before you pay. If a piece is faulty, damaged or not as described, you can still return it, and we cover the return postage. Non-personalised items can be cancelled within 14 days of delivery, and you then have 14 days to send them back at your own cost. See our returns policy for the full details.
What should I write in a gift note?
