FAQ

ORDER INFO

  • When will my order arrive?

All of our work is hand fabricated, which means we do not employ any outsourcing, casting, or pre-made components to save time. While this is not the most efficient way of working, it's how we love to work. Hand fabrication also imbues our work with a unique handmade quality that our clients value. The majority of our work is made to order, which means we need to order materials, make your piece(s), and ship it. All KMJ made to order pieces take 3-4 weeks to process and handcraft. Please note that shipping timeframes do not include the time to process and create your piece(s).

We are able to accommodate rush orders on a case-by-case basis. A 10% up-charge of the total order cost is added to cover a request to rush materials and/or to move your order up in our production schedule. Overnight shipping is an additional charge and can be calculated based on your order total and destination. Please contact us directly to discuss your needs and to get an estimate for lead time and shipping rates. We'll get back to you very soon.

  • Will I have to pay sales tax?

All Colorado retail customers are subject to Colorado state and county sales tax. Additionally, sales tax laws have recently changed, requiring us to collect and remit sales tax in certain other states. If sales tax is required, our website provider automatically calculates the amount we need to remit and adds the tax to your checkout total.

  • Once I place my order, how long before I have the piece?

Due to the handmade nature of the goods we produce and carry all KMJ made to order jewelry requires 3-4 weeks from the date the order is placed. All Other Artist made to order jewelry requires 6-10 weeks from the date the order is placed. Please keep in mind that this does not include shipping time. We're sometimes able to expedite orders depending on work flow in the studio. Rush orders incur a fee of 10% of the order total. If you need a rush order, please contact us directly before placing your order. In-stock items are shipped in 1-2 business days from the date of purchase. Custom orders generally take 6-10 weeks, depending on the degree of customization. See our custom policy here

Most pieces can be resized within a reasonable range. Resizing ability is dependent on both the design and the adjustment requirements. Resizing is reviewed on an individual basis. Our ring resizing fee is $50 plus return shipping, which is dependent on the price of the ring. All OOAK/Custom rings include one free resizing within the first six months, if needed.
