SHIPPING POLICY

All of our pieces are handcrafted and made-to-order in our New York studio. Most orders ship within 2–4 weeks, though simpler styles may be ready sooner.

More intricate or customized pieces can take up to 5–6 weeks to complete.

If you're working with a specific timeline or need your piece by a certain date, please reach out, we’ll do our best to accommodate. Please allow an additional 7 days for engraving or additional customization.

For expedited processing, please contact us via connect@bernardjames.com

RETURN POLICY

At Bernard James, each piece is thoughtfully crafted, typically made-to-order, to ensure it meets the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship. We understand that selecting fine jewelry online can be a delicate process, and we're here to assist you in making the perfect choice.

If you find that your selection isn't quite what you expected, we offer an exchange or store credit within 14 days of receiving your purchase. Please note that due to the bespoke nature of custom and engraved items, these pieces are final sale; however, depending on the piece, adjustments to size can be made.

For in-store purchases, we are pleased to offer exchanges or store credit to ensure your complete satisfaction.

Each customer is limited to two total product exchanges per order. We encourage thoughtful selection to ensure your piece is exactly as envisioned, and our team is always available to guide you through the process. Please keep this in mind as you make your final decision.

If you have questions about shipping or returns, our team is here to help.
