IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Once your order leaves our studio, we are not responsible for any delays caused by postal services.
Please ensure that your shipping address is accurate and secure. We do not deliver to PO boxes. Ivory Sun is not liable for:

- Return-to-sender parcels due to incorrect or incomplete address information. If a parcel is returned to us due to delivery issues, customers are responsible for any re-shipping costs.

- Parcels lost or stolen from unsafe delivery locations.

RETURNS AND REFUNDS

Due to the handcrafted and delicate nature of our sculptural candles, we are unable to offer returns or exchanges for change of mind. All of our creations are carefully inspected to make sure they meet our quality requirements. As our products are all handmade in small batches, small imperfections, such as slight variations in texture or colour and small air bubbles, are part of the natural beauty of artisan work. These are not considered a fault but a unique feature to each of our creations and won't affect, in any way, the normal use of the product.

However, if your candle arrives damaged, please contact us within 3 days of receiving your order. Be sure to include your order number and clear photos of the item and packaging. If eligible, we will gladly offer a replacement once we receive the damaged product back.

If you have any concerns about your order, we’re here to help. Please reach out via our contact page form.
