HIGH JEWELLERY & BESPOKE POLICY

Varan Fine Jewellery

1. Scope

This policy applies to all High Jewellery, Bespoke, Made-to-Order, and Customised pieces sold by Varan Fine Jewellery, including but not limited to:

  • One-of-a-kind creations
  • Bespoke commissions
  • Made-to-order designs
  • High-value jewellery pieces
  • Custom stone sizes, shapes, or colours
  • Fancy coloured diamonds
  • Modular, removable, or interchangeable designs

By placing an order for any of the above, the client expressly agrees to this policy.

2. Nature of High Jewellery & Bespoke Creations

High jewellery and bespoke pieces are created exclusively for the individual client, often involving rare stones, specialised sourcing, and custom craftsmanship. The client acknowledges that:

  • The piece is produced specifically to their specifications
  • Such pieces cannot be resold as new once production has commenced
  • Production involves artisanal processes that may result in minor, natural variations

3. Final Sale — No Returns, Refunds, or Exchanges

All High Jewellery and Bespoke pieces are STRICTLY FINAL SALE. Once production has commenced:

  • No cancellations are permitted
  • No refunds will be issued
  • No exchanges will be accepted

This applies without exception, including but not limited to:

  • Change of mind
  • Subjective dissatisfaction
  • Third-party opinions or appraisals
  • Market value or price fluctuations

4. Design Approval & Variations

Design materials (including sketches, renders, images, or descriptions) are provided for reference purposes only. The client acknowledges that:

  • Such materials are not exact representations
  • Minor variations in proportions, setting, or finish may occur
  • Natural and laboratory-grown diamonds may vary in appearance, brilliance, or hue

These characteristics are inherent to fine jewellery and do not constitute defects.

5. Stones, Certificates & Valuations

Where applicable, diamonds may be accompanied by independent gemological laboratory certificates. The client acknowledges that:

  • Certificates describe gemological characteristics only
  • Certificates do not guarantee resale, insurance, or market value
  • Valuations and appraisals are opinions and may vary
  • Market prices fluctuate over time

Differences in valuation do not constitute grounds for dispute, refund, or renegotiation.

6. Payment & Production

Full payment is required prior to commencement of production, unless otherwise agreed in writing. Once production has commenced:

  • The order is locked
  • No design, stone, or specification changes can be made without written approval
  • Any approved changes may incur additional costs and extended timelines

7. Production Timelines

All production timelines provided are estimates only. Varan Fine Jewellery is not responsible for delays caused by:

  • Custom craftsmanship or artisanal processes
  • Stone sourcing or availability
  • Third-party workshops or suppliers
  • Force majeure or events beyond reasonable control

Delays do not constitute grounds for cancellation or refund.

8. Delivery, Risk & Ownership

All High Jewellery and Bespoke pieces are fully insured until confirmed delivery. Risk and ownership transfer to the client:

  • Upon delivery to the provided address, or
  • Upon signature by the client or an authorised recipient

Varan Fine Jewellery is not responsible for loss or damage after confirmed delivery.
