Please include:
-
your order number;

clear photographs of the affected item or missing components;

a brief description of the problem.
Video evidence may also be requested when necessary.
After reviewing the information, we may offer replacement components, a replacement item, a partial refund, a full refund, or another appropriate solution.
Natural Variations
Glass beads, reflective finishes, handmade components, and assembled finished pieces may show slight differences in color, shape, arrangement, or reflection.
Small variations caused by lighting, screen settings, bead batches, or handmade assembly are not normally considered defects.
Return Shipping Costs
For approved returns that are not caused by a product defect or our error, the customer is responsible for return shipping costs.
Original shipping fees are non-refundable.
If the return is caused by an incorrect, defective, damaged, or incomplete order, Gleamade will provide an appropriate solution after reviewing the evidence.
Refund Processing
Once an approved return has been received and inspected, we will notify you of the outcome.
Approved refunds will be issued to the original payment method. Please allow approximately 5–10 business days for the refund to appear, depending on your bank or payment provider.
Lost Packages and Address Issues
Customers are responsible for entering a complete and accurate shipping address.
If tracking shows a delivery problem or you believe your parcel has been lost, please contact the shipping carrier first and then email support@gleamade.com with your order number.
We will assist with the investigation where possible, but compensation cannot be guaranteed when a parcel is lost because of an incorrect or incomplete address supplied by the customer.
