Return and Exchange Policy (FAQs)

At Kaiworks, we want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase. Here’s a quick overview of our policy:

Returns and Exchanges
We are unable to accept returns or exchanges on jewelry items due to sanitary and custom crafting reasons. If there’s an issue with your order, please contact us at info@kaiworksnyc.com, and we’ll work to resolve it.

Order Cancellations
All sales are final, and we do not accept cancellations once an order is placed. Since each piece is made to order, cancellations would delay processing for all customers.

Due to the resources and craftsmanship involved, all sales of 14K gold items are final. There are no returns or exchanges on these items.

Apparel and Necklaces/Chains
For apparel and necklaces/chains supplied to us, we accept returns and exchanges within 15 days of receiving the item, as long as it’s unworn and in its original condition.

General

Yes, absolutely! At KAIWORKS, we specialize in creating custom jewelry tailored to your unique preferences. Follow the instructions on our custom creation page, and we'll work closely with you to bring your vision to life.

To clean Jewelry effectively while preserving its quality, follow these steps:
  1. Soap and Water:

    • Mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water.
    • Soak the pendant for a few minutes.
    • Use a soft-bristle toothbrush to gently scrub any dirt or tarnish.
    • Rinse thoroughly with clean water and pat dry with a soft cloth.
  2. Baking Soda Paste:

    • Make a paste using three parts baking soda to one part water.
    • Apply the paste to the pendant using a soft cloth or sponge.
    • Gently rub the silver to remove tarnish.
    • Rinse thoroughly with water and dry with a soft cloth.
  3. Commercial Silver Polish:

    • Use a silver polish specifically designed for sterling silver.
    • Follow the product instructions, applying the polish with a soft cloth.
    • Buff the pendant gently until it shines.
    • Rinse with water if required by the polish and dry.
  4. Avoid Harsh Chemicals:

    • Avoid using bleach, ammonia, or other harsh chemicals, as they can damage sterling silver.
  5. Regular Maintenance:

    • Store your pendant in a cool, dry place, preferably in an anti-tarnish pouch.
    • Regularly polish your pendant with a soft cloth to keep it shiny.

This approach will help maintain the jewelry's appearance and prevent tarnish from building up over time.
