STORE CREDIT
If you would prefer not to request a refund, we are happy to issue a Découverte store credit for the value of your return. Store credit is valid for 12 months from the date of issue and can be applied toward any purchase in store or at shopdecouverte.com. Store credit has no cash value and is non-transferable.
To request store credit in place of a refund, add a note to that effect when you submit your online return request, or mention it when returning in-store, and we'll process it accordingly.
DAMAGED IN TRANSIT
If your order arrives with damaged packaging or broken items due to shipping, please contact us at support@shopdecouverte.com within 48 hours of delivery. Include your order number, a description of the damage, and photographs of both the item and the packaging. We will work with UPS to resolve the issue and arrange a replacement or refund as quickly as possible. Claims submitted after 48 hours may not be eligible for resolution through the carrier.
DEFECTIVE ITEMS
We uphold a high standard of quality for every product we carry. If an item you receive has a manufacturing defect, meaning a flaw present before the item was used, please contact us within 10 days of purchase at support@shopdecouverte.com with your order number and photos of the defect. We will arrange a replacement or full refund at no cost to you.
Please note that natural variation in handmade goods, including tonal differences between pieces in the same ceramic set, slight irregularities in mouth-blown glass, or variation in recycled wool texture, are not defects. These characteristics are inherent to the makers we work with and are part of what makes each piece distinct.
SALE ITEMS
All sale and discounted items are final sale. Sale items are not eligible for return, exchange, or store credit.
