Returns:
We really hope you love your pieces as much as we love making them. However, if for any reason you would like to return your piece then please email us on shop@kscreativepottery.com within 14 days of receiving and we will provide the full details of how to do so.
As all our items are handmade in our studio and are to be treated with extreme care. We advise hand washing everything in warm to cold water to avoid cracking, crazing and to prevent items leaking or breaking.
We are unable to accept liability after 14 days of receiving the item.
Authorised refunds will be made to your original payment method within 14 days of us receiving the undamaged, returned goods.
Personalised made-to-order Items are only refundable if they are faulty or delivered damaged.
Made-to-Order:
As all pieces are made to order we cannot guarantee that a replacement will be dispatched outside of a 4-6 week lead time but we will do our best to despatch sooner.
Customers are required to pay for return shipping and the order remains the customers responsibility until we receive it back - we therefore suggest you use a tracked postage service with insurance. Delivery charges will not be refunded.

If you would like to exercise your right of cancellation, you must inform us of this decision by a clear statement, including your name, address, contact details and details of the order you wish to cancel.
