  • Only items in perfect & sellable condition that show no signs of wear and tear, with original packaging, tags, accessories and freebies can be returned.
  • If a free gift that was gifted at the time of purchase is not returned with the products, the full MRP value of the freebie will be deducted from the refund amount. This is non-negotiable.
  • For shoes, please ensure that you try on products on carpeted surfaces to avoid scratching the soles. Scratched soles are non-returnable.
  • Please test the fitting of shoes without wrinkling the leather; especially the toe-line. Wrinkled products are non-returnable.

  • Items can also be returned at our store in New Delhi.
  • No returns and refunds on final-call items.
  • The natural beauty of leather means that no two pieces of leather are exactly alike. As such, natural markings and grain variations are not considered defects; and cannot be considered reason for returns.
  • Products bought online can have a subtle hue, shine and color difference between the website photographs and the physical product. This is because each product is handmade and hand painted and such subtle differences are bound to happen and no two products can be of the same color, shade and hue. This is also due to varied screen settings like brightness, saturation and inherent color rendering. This cannot be considered a manufacturing defect and a reason for return.
Materials Considerations are not defects.

  • Since each product is handmade and handcrafted, each piece is slightly different from the other. This is the natural characteristic of the artisanal properties of the product and cannot be considered a defect. Please understand that artisanal products cannot be “exact” each time - since these are not mass produced in a factory. Each product is handmade by an artisan - and this uniqueness is what gives each product the soul it deserves.
