Terms and Conditions
Product Details
- Islay's jewellery is all hand made and hand finished, therefore some variations in shape, size and texture are normal.
- Jewellery and Kilt Pins are made by Islay Spalding and her assistants in her workshop at Double Door Studios in Dundee. When outsourcing is required for certain techniques or equipment (such as casting, engraving or some stone setting) she has a range of skilled people she works with to get the job done.
- Precious metals over the required weight are assayed and hallmarked at the Edinburgh Assay Office. This mark has symbols for Metal Fineness, where it was hallmarked and what year, alongside Islay's own makers mark - a circle with IS in the centre.
- Rings are made in UK sizes. If you need to provide your ring size, please either get in touch to arrange to be measured at Double Door Studios in Dundee, or go to a high street or other local jeweller, they will be happy to help....no one really likes resizing a ring! If you are ordering a particularly wide or thin ring, this is important to mention as it may affect the sizing.
- Jewellery and Kilt Pins are packaged in branded boxes made from recycled cardboard.
- All copyrights, designs and masters relating to any works sold remain the property of Islay Spalding Contemporary Jewellery Designs.
