Questions

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.
