Shipping & Returns
What is your shipping policy?
As a result of enhanced precautionary measures due to COVID-19, some carriers are experiencing extended service delays that could exceed delivery beyond your selected shipping time as well as impact package tracking information. In this case, there will be no reimbursement on shipping fees due to carrier delays.
Shipping Policy
We ship all orders Monday through Friday (excluding holidays). All orders are usually shipped within 1-2 weeks of the purchase date. Business days are Monday-Friday excluding federal holidays. If an order is placed after 12PM EST on Friday, it will be shipped the following week. Orders placed on Saturdays and Sundays will begin processing the following business day. If ordering Next Day Shipping before 12PM EST, the order will be shipped that same day. All customers will receive a confirmation email with tracking information when the order has shipped. Shipping windows are estimates and delivery dates cannot always be guaranteed.
Please note: Once we hand pack and prepare your package for shipping, we pass it off to a third-party courier so that your package will arrive at you safe and sound. In the case that your package is lost or stolen in transit or upon arrival, Julie Baker Design does not take responsibility for it. All claims must be made through the carrier your package was shipped with.
International Shipping
All orders shipping internationally are subject to additional shipping charges based on taxes, tariffs, and duties put into place by that country. These charges are determined based on the type of product being shipped, its value, country of origin or manufacturing, and the classification of the item. Any applicable fees will not be included in the checkout total and are to be paid for by the customer at the time of delivery. If additional charges apply to your order, the mail carrier will contact you by either phone or email to pay these charges so that the shipment can continue to its destination. Julie Baker Design has no control over these charges and is not responsible for any additional fees.

Repairs & Custom Products
Do you offer product repairs?
We stand behind our product, but more importantly, we stand behind our customers. If a Julie Baker piece fails during normal wear within 60 days of delivery date due to a defect in material or workmanship, as solely determined by Julie Baker Design we will repair the piece at no cost. Any decision to repair a piece of Julie Baker is subject to review and in Julie Baker Designs sole discretion. Julie Baker Design may also refuse to repair any piece of jewelry for any reason. All customers must provide us with valid proof of purchase to receive a repair.
To begin the return process, please email us at info@juliebakerdesign.com.

What about personalized orders?
Please allow additional time for all personalized items to ship. We need time to create the pieces since they’re being made especially for you and require a bit more time in production.

If you need to place an urgent order, please contact our customer service team via info@juliebakerdesign.com and we will do our best to accommodate you if possible.

Care of Your Jewelry
Product Care
Julie Baker Design jewelry has been designed and manufactured to the highest quality standards. Proper care and maintenance will preserve the beauty and shine of your JBD jewelry. Periodic examination of clasps and settings to ensure a secure fit is recommended. Always put your jewelry on after you dress to avoid contact with perfumes, cosmetics or other household chemicals.
Storage
When it is not being worn, always store your jewelry in its original box. If this is impractical, use a suitably lined box or protective pouch. To avoid scratches, each piece of jewelry should be stored separately, and bracelets should always be stored flat. Never store your JBD jewelry in a leather pouch. To avoid accelerated tarnishing always store your JBD gold jewelry in the special pouches provided.
14 and 18k Gold
Most gold jewelry can be safely cleaned with a non-abrasive jewelry cleaner. Always rinse completely and blot dry with a chamois cloth. Never use creamy jewelry cleaners on gold as they may containing harsh abrasives that will scratch the surface of the jewelry
Gemstones
Special attention should be paid to JBD gemstone jewelry. Avoid extreme temperature changes and contact with household chemicals. Never expose stones to hot solutions, abrasive cleaners or ultrasonic cleaners. With the exception of pearls, which require special care, gemstones may be cleaned with a non-abrasive jewelry cleaner.
Warranty & Damage Protection
We know damaged items are frustrating, so we offer protection for all orders. Anything purchased through our company website or stores is eligible for a free replacement if damaged during the warranty. If a replacement isn’t available, we may offer store credit or an exchange at the discretion of the customer service team. We can’t repair damaged items.
Warranty Timeframe
The warranty starts when your tracking is marked delivered. You must contact us within 60/120 days to file a claim.
Third-party purchases are not covered under our policy - please contact the retailer directly. Our service team is legally barred from reimbursing these purchases.
We don’t charge any additional shipping fees for replacement orders. Replacements can be shipped worldwide. International replacement orders may be charged customs fees on delivery based on local tariff laws.
