WHAT’S THE PACKAGING LIKE?
ALL ITEMS ARE BEAUTIFULLY PRESENTED IN MATT BLACK GIFT BOXES WITH GLOSSY SPOT DETAILING.
what if I don't know my ring size?
IF YOU DO NOT KNOW THE (UK) RING SIZE that YOU NEED, THE BEST THING TO DO IS TO VISIT A LOCAL JEWELLER’S SHOP AND ASK THEM TO MEASURE YOUR FINGER USING A METAL RING GUAGE. IF YOU CAN’T MAKE IT TO A JEWELLER’S TO DO THIS THEN you can buy a relatively cheap uk ring sizer online, something like this.
DUE TO THE SIZE AND WEIGHT OF Poppy’s designs, WHEN measuring for your ring size WE ADVISE THAT YOU GO FOR A comfortably SNUG FIT to avoid the ring ‘swinging’ on your finger.
THE BEST TIME OF DAY TO MEASURE IS IN THE EVENING, WHEN YOUR FINGERS ARE LARGEST. AVOID MEASURING WHEN YOU’RE COLD, AS FINGERS ARE AT LEAST HALF A SIZE SMALLER.
WHAT IF YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND?
POPPY IS HAPPY TO ISSUE A REFUND IF THE ITEMS ARE RETURNED, UNDAMAGED, UNWORN AND IN THEIR ORIGINAL UNDAMAGED PACKAGING WITHIN 14 DAYS OF DELIVERY. YOU WILL NEED TO PROVIDE PROOF OF PURCHASE.

WHAT IF THE ITEM IS FAULTY?
HOPEFULLY THIS WON’T HAPPEN BUT IF YOU DO HAVE ANY PROBLEMS PLEASE DON’T HESITATE TO GET IN TOUCH. POPPY WILL DO HER BEST TO REPAIR OR REPLACE ANY FAULTY ITEM BUT IF THIS ISN’T POSSIBLE A FULL REFUND WILL BE ISSUED along with the return postage costs.
HOW SHOULD I LOOK AFTER MY JEWELLERY?

PLEASE NOTE THAT OVER TIME BRASS WILL AGE NATURALLY, DEVELOPING A RICHER, DARKER TONE. IF YOU DO WANT TO RESTORE IT TO ITS LIGHTER STATE WE SUGGEST CLEANING IT WITH A SPECIALIST BRASS CLEANER. IF YOU WISH TO RESTORE A BRUSHED brass FINISH WE SUGGEST GIVING IT A GENTLE RUB WITH AN ABRASIVE BLOCK (SUCH AS GARRYFLEX) OR USING A FINE GRADE SANDPAPER, MAKING SURE TO AVOID CONTACT WITH ANY OTHER MATERIALS THAT MAY BE INCORPORATED INTO THE THE JEWELLERY.
PLEASE BE AWARE THAT GOLD PLATED JEWELLERY WILL gently WEAR OVER TIME, TO PROLONG ITS LIFE GIVE IT A GENTLE CLEAN WITH WARM SOAPY WATER, RINSING AND DRYING IT WITH A SOFT CLOTH. KEEP JEWELLERY AWAY FROM SHARP OR ABRASIVE OBJECTS AND STORE IT SEPARATELY FROM OTHER ITEMS.
