FAQ
Shipping & Orders
Q: Where do your products ship from? How long does it take?
A: All our jewelry is handcrafted and shipped directly from our studio in Jingdezhen, China—the historical capital of ceramics.
- Standard Shipping: Usually takes 8-15 business days to North America and Europe.
- Express Shipping: Available at checkout, taking 5-8 business days.
(Please note: Each piece is carefully inspected and packaged, which requires 1-3 business days of processing time before dispatch.)
Craftsmanship & Variations
Q: Will the jewelry I receive look exactly like the pictures?
A: Yes and no.
Our photography accurately represents the design and color palette. However, because our ceramics are fired in high-temperature kilns and our silk is hand-woven, you will see subtle, beautiful variations in glaze flow, texture, and color transitions. These are not flaws; they are the "breathing marks" of authentic handcraft, ensuring your piece is truly one-of-a-kind.
Care & Maintenance
Q: Are ceramic earrings heavy or fragile? How should I care for them?
A: Despite their profound look, our ceramic pieces are surprisingly lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear. While high-temperature firing makes them highly durable, they are still ceramics.
- Care: Please avoid dropping them on hard surfaces (like tile floors).
- For Silk Pieces: Keep woven silk elements away from water, perfumes, and sharp objects to prevent fraying. Always store your jewelry in the provided HECROWN gift box when not in use.
Returns & Exchanges
Q: What is your return policy?
A: We want you to absolutely love your piece. If you are not completely satisfied, we accept returns within 14 days of delivery for standard collections (The Wabi-Sabi & The Blue & White). Items must be unworn and in their original packaging.
(Please note: Due to their irreplaceable nature, "The Signature" 1-of-1 archive pieces are final sale unless damaged during transit.)
Packaging & Gifting
Q: What is included in the packaging? Is it ready for gifting?
