Start with the recipient, not the product photo
Write down the jewellery type, likely size, preferred colour or finish, everyday dress style and whether the recipient normally wears lightweight or statement pieces. If any of those details are uncertain, choose a route with a forgiving size or a clear return process.
Checks before ordering
- Use the merchant’s current size guide and compare it with an item the recipient already wears.
- Read the full material and plating description rather than relying on colour names or photographs.
- Check care instructions, contact or allergy notes and any exclusions without assuming suitability.
- Confirm dispatch timing, UK delivery wording, tracking, import or tax wording and the final checkout total.
- Read the return window, condition requirements, packaging rules, hygiene exclusions and who pays return postage.
- Check whether gift packaging, receipts, exchanges and recipient returns work for the actual occasion.
Treat delivery dates as changeable
An estimated dispatch or delivery date is not a guarantee. Leave enough time for processing, cross-border movement, address errors and a possible return or exchange. Recheck the final merchant terms at checkout.
