Return Policies - Do you accept returns or exchanges?

Each piece is hand made and unique. Since these are handmade, please allow for slight variances from the ones in the product images. I do my best to represent colours accurately in the pictures.

We do not accept returns or exchanges due to quality control and hygiene issues. Being a small business, I don’t have the capacity to accept and process returns. Please look carefully at item pictures and descriptions.

If accidentally you get some wrong or defective item or you have an issue with your order, please email me and I’d be happy to help! 💚

Payment Options - What payment methods are accepted?

We accept the following payment options: American Express, Apple Pay, Google Pay, MasterCard, PayPal, Shop Pay, Visa and Afterpay.

Jewellery Care - How should I care for my handmade polymer clay jewellery?

The earrings are made of polymer clay. Polymer clay is so versatile and lightweight. Your earrings are perfect for everyday wear and they are extremely comfortable. Handling them with care will help them to live long and happily.

Be sure to store your jewellery carefully away from humidity, direct sunlight, and other metal pieces that might scratch the surfaces of polymer clay. Please remember that pearls and other gold-filled parts can be damaged by rough handling, so take care while wearing and removing your set of earrings.

Keep out of reach of young children and pets due to small parts which could pose to choking hazards.

I have sensitive ears - Can I wear these?

Please note that we, the people with sensitive skin, aren’t the same so we can actually be allergic to different components between each other. All earrings accessories in Ear Vibes are nickel, lead and zinc free so they are suitable for sensitive ears. Mostly gold plated and sterling silver. Earring posts are made out of stainless steel. Metals and materials used in my handmade jewellery are non-toxic and skin-friendly so they won’t harm your skin.
