Asked often, answered once
Orders & delivery
How long does delivery take? +−
Each boutique ships from its own city — Paris, Geneva or Lisbon. The exact estimate is shown in the bag and at checkout; complimentary delivery applies above each boutique's threshold.
Can I change an order after placing it? +−
Within 12 hours, usually yes — write to the atelier with your order number. Once a piece is with the workshop for finishing, we can no longer intervene.
Do you ship internationally? +−
Yes, insured and tracked. Duties outside the EU/CH are the recipient's responsibility and are estimated at checkout.
Returns & sizing
What is the returns policy? +−
Free returns within 30 days, in the original packaging. Bespoke and engraved pieces are made for you and cannot be returned — we will say so clearly before you order.
How do I choose a size? +−
Every boutique has its own guide — a size chart for apparel, a ring sizer for jewellery, finished dimensions for homeware. Open any piece and tap the guide link beside the sizes.
A ring does not fit — now what? +−
Resizing is complimentary within the first year, half sizes up or down, back with you within twelve days.
Product & care
Why do ceramics vary between pieces? +−
The glaze separates slightly in the kiln, pooling darker where the form turns. Two pieces fired side by side will not match — that variation is the point, not a defect.
How do I care for washed silk? +−
Cold water, a drop of neutral soap, no wringing. Roll in a towel, dry on a wide hanger away from the sun. The Journal has the full ritual.
Are materials certified? +−
Wool and silk are mill-certified; stones are traceable to the cutter; oak is FSC. Certificates travel with the piece where applicable.
Theme & tech
Is this a real shop? +−
It is a demo of the Lumière theme for Astro. Every product, review and order lives in mock JSON — connect the Shopify Storefront API with two environment variables and it becomes your storefront.
Where does checkout go? +−
The included checkout is a mock that writes orders into the local account ledger. On Shopify, the bag hands off to Shopify's hosted checkout.
