Manufacturing & processing time
I work as a slow jeweler, which means that I make all my jewelry pieces one by one, therefore the availability of each of them can vary, all the pieces in the online shop are available for purchase but that does not mean that there is a stock of all of them, if the item you bought is not in stock, it will be necessary to manufacture it, especially for you.
Processing/manufacturing times vary according to the complexity of the design and manufacturing technique, most of the pieces require an estimate of 5 business days, and designs made in casting or lost wax require between 10 -15 business days plus the shipping time. The same rules apply for pieces in a custom size the same thing happens, if your size is in stock I will send it quickly, otherwise, I would appreciate it if you wait for the indicated time. When your piece is ready, it will be sent within a period of no more than 3 business days.
Due to its manufacturing process, the hollow and cast designs (lost wax) will need around 10-15 business days to be manufactured if there is no stock, again, plus shipping time.
During the Christmas holidays, the manufacturing time may increase depending on my workload, and the availability of the foundry shops.
When making your purchase, you will be indicated the shipping time, which is considered once the piece is ready, that is after the manufacturing and processing time has ended.
If you need your order to be with you in a determined time, please confirm the immediate availability of the articles that interest you by contacting me directly before finishing your buy.
Shipping
Please make sure to exclusively choose a shipping option available for your shipping address, shipments that do not correspond to the receiving site will not be made.
Shipments in CDMX will be made using a messaging system before notice to the buyer. This system offers a single delivery without the possibility of return, so the buyer must confirm the delivery date to receive their shipment. An extra cost will be charged in case of not available for reception. Shipments to the metropolitan area are subject to the scope of the courier company and in some cases in the metropolitan area, regular national postal delivery may apply and courier does not.
All international & domestic shipments outside CDMX are made using the Regular Registered Shipping from the Mexican Postal Service, corresponding to the economic standard cost with tracking number, in case you are in the Mexican Republic, the package must arrive at your address along with the mail and the person receiving the package must show identification to the postal staff. In the case of international shipments, the Mexican Post will be responsible for delivering the package to the postal company of the recipient country and the latter will make the final delivery.
All shipments will include a tracking number, however, consider that some international postal companies do not allow to track foreign postal numbers, so despite having a guide number it can be difficult to track your order. (CA and AU are examples).
Delivery time will depend on the shipping distance and the customs process.
If a free shipping promotion is offered, it will be using registered mail from Correos de Mexico, it does not include private courier services.
*Buyers in the EU, UK, and Brazil
According to the new e-commerce rules of the EU and UK, no commerce outside their borders can trade without being fiscally registered, collecting and paying taxes in each of the member countries, due to the small size of my business it is not possible for me to meet those requirements, happily my work is still available to you in my Etsy shop!
Shipments to Brazil will have to be with a courier since regular local post it's not trustworthy.

Expedited shipping
I offer you to quote the cost of your shipment by national courier or any international courier company, there are no fixed prices since they depend on the daily price of the US dollar. Consider that the shipping cost will increase considerably.
If you are interested in express shipping, contact me before finalizing your purchase.

Customs and import taxes
Buyers are responsible for customs and import taxes that may apply. Consider most countries establish a certain value as the maximum limit of access from abroad merchandise without customs charges, each country has its own guidelines, it is the buyer's responsibility to find out about the applicable regulations in their country of residence. I am not responsible for delivery delays or additional costs due to customs procedures and regulations.
Important: customs rules require all international shipments to include a customs declaration with the total value of the item shipped, and the kind of item included in the package. I will include an invoice (no price indicated for gifts) indicating that you paid VAT on your purchase, but that does NOT include customs taxes, and the actual value will be stated in the customs declaration in the package. Declaring less than the actual value is violating the law, any international purchase may be subject to customs taxes that will be the buyer's sole responsibility, please check the laws of your country to be aware of it.

In defective items, the buyer will be responsible for returning the item properly protected, packed, and making a return shipment. To ensure a proper return, the item must be sent back properly packaged and protected, with a tracking number as it was sent.
