It is at our discretion as to whether the items are deemed damaged or lacking in quality. Please remember that we are working with artisans who may be sole traders and are experts in their fields. These are not mass produced items and cannot be expected to be uniform in the same way mass manufactured products are. Please note that any customised orders or jewellery orders cannot be returned as these specific items are unable to be resold. Our customer services team are happy to discuss any aspects of the above policy with you, please email them if you have any questions.

Delivery and Dispatch

Atharna appreciates that our customers expect prompt and efficient delivery of all their items and endeavours for this to be the case in every instance. However, occasionally an unlikely event occurs out of our control which may slow, interrupt or end the arrival of your order. Atharna cannot take responsibility of items once they have left our care and are in the hands of the postal service or courier service. This includes, but is not limited to, postal delays, postal or courier strikes, damage in transport, loss in transport, theft and acts of God; any of which may impact the timely arrival of your order. Charges apply to all delivery options, unless specified in a promotional offer in which case refer to the terms and conditions of said offer. As we ship internationally please be aware that prices and timings may differ due to this. As we are often working with individual craftsmen and women and artisans there are rare occasions where an order cannot be fulfilled. If this occurs you will be contacted by Atharna at the earliest possible instance and a full refund, alternate purchase, or credit note will be issued to you.

Disclaimer

Atharna products, and those of the artisans and partners we work with, are hand-crafted one by one. This means it is very rare to create two products that are identical in look and feel. Each item is based on traditional handicrafts and often is created using traditional techniques, because of this the products may have features appearing as blemishes that are not a product flaw, but are a result of these traditional methods. These differences make your product unique to you and one of a kind. We consider any features of this kind to be a benefit, showing the story of the product and the artisan who made the piece with their own hands.

Due to the hand-crafted, artisanal, nature of the products we cannot confirm that they are fire-proof, dishwasher proof, allergen-free, or can withstand high volume use. We advise that all products are hand cleaned, and hand washed or dry-cleaned.

The images of the product may appear different to the product you receive due to variations in electronic screens (desktop, laptop, tablet, phone or other variable factors between the image and the product.
