Repairs, Returns + Exchanges
We strive for 100% customer satisfaction. You can exchange or return any unworn and unaltered piece(s) within 14 days of the receipt date (custom orders are final sale). Please note that shipping and handling fees for returns are non-refundable.
To initiate a return, email us at concierge@alexwoo.com to obtain a Return Authorization Number (RA#). Returns without an RA# will not be accepted. Include your return address, phone number, a copy of your receipt, and a note explaining the reason for the return.
RA#s are valid for 7 days after issuance. For your protection, we recommend insuring the item for its full value and shipping it via a trackable method (FedEx, UPS, USPS insured). We are not responsible for the item until it is received or for any return shipping costs.
A Final Sale item cannot be returned or exchanged. This includes all customized, soldered, enameled, or engraved pieces.
Alex Woo proudly stands behind the quality and craftsmanship of our jewelry. If your piece needs repair, please email concierge@alexwoo.com with a photo of the item to obtain a Repair Authorization Number (RA#). Charges may apply, and you will be notified before we proceed with the repair.
For your protection, please ship all returns via FedEx, UPS, or insured Parcel Post.
Unfortunately, we’re unable to accept returns or exchanges for items purchased through our retail partners. This is because:
- Retail partners have already purchased the merchandise directly from us, so we cannot process returns or exchanges for items we did not sell directly to you.
- Each store has its own return and exchange policies, which we do not control.
We recommend contacting the store where you made your purchase. We’re happy to work with the store to assist you if needed.
However, if your Alex Woo piece requires repair, we’re here to help! Please contact us at concierge@alexwoo.com with a photo of your item. We’ll assess the damage, and if a repair is possible, we’ll provide details including any applicable fees before proceeding.
If you have a website return/exchange/repair you would need to process your request directly with us. We are happy to help!
Jewelry Care
We hope you enjoy your Alex Woo jewelry for years to come! To keep your pieces looking their best, we offer Jewelry Cleaner Sets with polishing cloths available on our website, but here are some additional tips:
For 14kt gold or diamond pieces: Use a solution of warm water and a few drops of mild dishwashing liquid. Gently scrub with a soft-bristle toothbrush, rinse with warm water, and dry with a soft cloth.
For sterling silver pieces: Use a paste made of three parts baking soda to one part water on matte-finished areas.
We also recommend storing your jewelry in an airtight, dry, lined case or a soft pouch when not in use to help maintain its shine and quality.
Sizing + Styling
Our 14kt Gold chains are available in 3 different thicknesses; 1 mm, 1.2 mm, and 1.5 mm. Most 14kt Gold and Diamond Little Icons™ come on our 1mm gold diamond cut ball chain. We also recommend this chain for 14kt Gold and Diamond Mini Additions™. Our 1.2 mm diamond cut ball chain is used for all Custom Double Gold or Diamond Little Letters and Numbers as well as some select Little Icons™ styles that are heavier in weight (this will be noted in the product's description). Our 1.5 mm diamond cut ball chain is used for our Custom Triple Gold or Diamond Little Letters and Numbers.
Due to the softer and more delicate properties of Sterling Silver, silver chains are Rhodium plated to prevent tarnishing, and are offered in 2 sizes; 1.2 mm diamond cut ball chains for Mini Additions™ and 1.5 mm for all Sterling Silver Little Icons™. All Little Icons™ come with a standard complimentary 16" chain. All chains are available to be upgraded to 18" and 20" (some select styles are also now available in 24") and have a lobster clasp closure.
Our Little Icons™ and Mini Additions™ have very small chain holes and other chains may not fit through them. Our diamond cut chains were specifically selected for our pieces and we do not recommend using other chains.
We’re glad you want to add more charms to your Alex Woo necklace! Our Little Icons™ and Mini Additions™ are designed to be able to slide on and off our chains. Cluster and layer for endless combinations!
