FAQ'S

How do I inquire about a custom design piece?

Custom designed pieces take some time and are in high demand. That being said, there is a wait list so simply email us at : info@drowningbear.com with your name and your idea and we will email you back with the rest of the details.

How long does a custom order take?

Processing times for custom orders vary depending on design and availability.

What if I change my mind on a custom order piece?

Custom orders take time and are subject to availability. That being said, we do ask for a $200 non refundable deposit securing your spot for your order. Once we receive your deposit, we go forth with the process of your order and unfortunately do not accept cancellations. We go through multiple stages to ensure satisfaction such as step by step process, sketches, and approval. Once the project is approved by the customer and sent for casting, it is officially yours to enjoy! 

What are your processing times for non-custom order pieces?

All orders on our website are processed between 5-7 business days. Each jewelry piece is handmade to order and takes time to ensure quality. Once your order has been made and inspected to perfection, it is ready to be shipped to your possession, which takes about 1-3 business days as it is beautifully hand packaged to keep your jewelry safe upon arrival. Shipping times vary depending on the carrier chosen at checkout. Please see below the additional wait times due to Covid19. 

Do you offer returns/exchanges?

As much as we'd love to refund our customers if they are unhappy with their jewelry, unfortunately we cannot accept returns or refunds. Each of our jewelry pieces are handmade to order and we take valuable time to ensure each one is in immaculate condition before it leaves our studio. However, if for any reason you are not satisfied, please feel free to contact us with any concerns.

How are you handling Covid19 shipping delays?

We are doing our best to ensure that you receive your jewelry fast and safely. Our top priority is the health and safety of our employees and customers. We have completely redesigned our production and fulfillment center to comply with state recommended PPE guidelines.

Please allow additional 3-5 business day for your items to reach you on USPS First Class shipping method.
