Our rates are not subject to VAT in application of article 293B of the french General Tax Code.
Prices may be modified at any time without prior notice.

If a piece of jewellery is indicated as "on order", this means that it is not immediately available but can be made within 2 weeks. For this, you will have to pay the full price of the jewel. You can also create an alert that will inform you by email when the product is available again on the site.

The clasps and primers are made of 925 solid silver or Gold filled (rolled gold), containing 5% pure 14ct gold on a Brass base.
Gold filled contains 50 to 100 times more gold than gold plated. Normally used, the jewel will keep its hold and shine for life.
Therefore, it is not recommended to put the jewellery in contact with cosmetics, detergents, perfume, sand and any product containing aggressive products and/or alcohol.
It is also not recommended to practice physical activity, to bathe or to sleep with your jewellery.
To clean them, use a soft brush soaked in soapy water and rinse immediately.
Dry with a very soft cloth.
Caution: some opalescent stones, such as Ethiopian Opal, may lose their brilliance if they are repeatedly exposed to water and/or left in water for a long time.
People with a pacemaker should not wear jewellery with a magnetic clasp.
Please note that precautions should be taken with magnetic clasps:
- Excessive heat can cause the magnetic properties to fail. Any heat should be kept away from the clasp so as not to damage the inside of the magnets.
- Avoid subjecting the magnet of your bracelet to any friction or sudden movement that could open it (e.g., putting on and taking off your hand from a tight pocket, taking off a thick piece of clothing)
