Shipping
Processing time
I send items within 1 to 3 days of your order. For most items, if it’s in stock on the website that means it’s ready to send.
Shipping: UK
Within the UK I send Royal Mail First Class post. You can choose from Standard First Class (up to £20 compensation cover from Royal Mail), Tracked 24 (up to £150 compensation cover from Royal Mail) or Special Delivery by 1pm (up to £750 compensation cover from Royal Mail). Therefore, if your order is worth over £20 I recommend using tracked, and if it is over £150 I recommend using Special Delivery.
Shipping: overseas
Outside of the UK I send all postage using Royal Mail Tracked service. That comes with Royal Mail compensation cover up to £50 or up to £250.
Taxes
Please be aware that anyone purchasing from outside the UK may be charged customs and VAT duties as their items enter their own country. These duties are set by the government of each country and are outside my control.

Gold-filled metal is a base metal with a thicker layer of gold on top than is used for gold plating.

Hallmarking
In the UK all items sold as precious metal i.e. solid sterling silver or solid gold, are required to be hallmarked by law. However this law only applies to silver items where the sterling silver weighs more than 7.78 grams, and to gold items weighing more than a gram. Gold-plated-silver items and Gold Vermeil items that are heavy enough will be hallmarked as silver.
